It's fucking hamazing. So who's got it? I was matchmaked with a guy named "ScubaSteve" (and some other random numbers) today and I nearly hexploded. But then he said he'd never heard of vendetta.

I've seen scubasteves in other games too.

Yeah, wasn't me. Haven't played yet, don't own a 360, etc etc etc.

Helped a friend buy it for ourselves on Wednesday. They changed some of the menu layout and we quickly found ourselves in Forge when we were trying to find the control layout menu.

All I can say is, A.S.B.S to the max!

SurbTranslate: "A.S.B.S." -> "Gravity Hammer"

A.S.B.S = Anti-Sonofa Bitch Stick = Gravity Hammer

I still like the Marathon naming convention best.

Yeah, there were TONS of Marathon references in Halo 3... moreso than in the other two games, I think.

I mean, hell, they named a portion of a level "Rampant"...

Couldn't help posting... My roomates got it at 12:00 midnight and bought the $200 special edition (with the helmet) as soon as it came out. Then proceeded the next 9 hours without sleep playing it before quitting. Now one of my roomates hardly ever goes to class anymore. Most nights he invites friends, acquaintences and other more random people into our living room from anywhere from a couple hour to all night fragfests.

It was fine for a bit, but when you go to sleep with one random person in your house, and then wake up to the sounds of fighting to find another random person on your couch the next morning it gets frustrating. There's nearly 24 hours of gunfire and perpetual killing ringing through the house. It really gets to your head when you're trying to sleep/eat/study/converse/breath/stay sane.

Ah, I remember those days, back in college, with Halo....
Now, i have a cat... he attacks his tail while in an empty case of beer.
Pretty much the same situation, I feel your pain A-Dawg.

Miha, I meant the naming in the original Marathon game series ^^

Things such as SPNKR, WSTE-M, TOZT... And of course "Eat it, Vidboi!"

"It really gets to your head when you're trying to sleep/eat/study/converse/breath/stay sane."

you could just go insane, more fun that way. or start playing pranks on the probably drunk strangers passed out on your couch. forget sharpies, acetone takes it off easily, real pro's use paint markers.

The gravity hammer pawns. It just does...

spartan lazer pawns

Grav Hammer sucks. I regularly kick the ass of hammer-ers with a single mauler. The only times I've lost that fight is when they sneak up on me with camo (which is really fucking hard to see in this version. It's way better)

Spartan laser also is shitty. I hope I get matchmade against spidey so he can try to laser me and I can just sidestep it, BR his face in, and then teabag away.
