Posted January 9, 2007 That is a really good deal. I remember buying Halo 1, Halo 2 and the mulitplayer Disc for £20. Seen as though we're both noobs at the game it'd be fun to play sometime. Yeah sure. I've not even played a bit of Halo yet so, I'll be mega n00b but I'm well up for a game of any of the games I've got. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 9, 2007 Gears of War PATCH OUT I went on and firstly the patch on the dashboard..whats that for anyway? I wasnt expecting a Gears update, do you think this is for those glitches? It wont be the new maps, it was really quick. Why don't we ever get anything in the big box on the right when you go in the marketplace? I see pics of Americans setups and they have adverts for games etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 9, 2007 I'm a bit of a noob-killer at Halo 2, I'm always looking for some more noobs to play with, so I'll give you a game sometime Ramar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 9, 2007 * Players can now get the Achievement for "Dish Best Served Cold" when using Troika turret to kill RAAM I saw that gun when me and my bro were playing and my bro tried to get to it and died cos of the Kryll bid things. I didnt know that you didnt get teh achievement * Reduced Grenade Tag melee distance Yes! I do hate it when poeple just run up to you and stick it in you when they're like a metre away.

Posted January 10, 2007 You're a tool man...Halo 1/2 have fantastic control once you get used to it. Fuck right off. That truck/buiggy thing has the worst controls I've ever seen! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 10, 2007 Controlling the camera along with the warthog is a great idea. 1, it allows you to drift at high speed 2, it makes sure the camera is always directly where you need it 3, gives great over all sense of speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 10, 2007 As much as I hate to agree with Jordan, he's right on this one. I don't see why the controls are terrible. Besides, it's not like you're using it for precision racing (unless you're dicking around on Zanzibar). You use it for a quick getaway and/or part of a co-ordinated assault.

Posted January 10, 2007 Maybe I'm just a flid, but the damn thing doesn't move straight, I'm swerving and spinning all over the shop. And if I can't seem to drive the thing the next time I play it, the game will never be touched again. I pray Halo 2 is better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 10, 2007 There is a point to that control scheme though. There's so many buttons for Halo that there isn't any room for one to be the accelerator of the warthog, so using up and angles on the stick to turn was the best option. Rather have the button, but like I say, there wasn't any space to map it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 10, 2007 I don't see the point in lim.ed bonus maps. Those mapps will probably seldom be played online. "Wanna play lost planet online on dark harvest? No. I didn't buy the lim.ed...." Meh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Meh. It'll probably end up as DLC, otherwise it is pretty pointless. Didn't reckon too much on the multiplayer from the demo anyway, seemed a bit clunky. My copy was posted today anyway.
