Beware of trading scammers!

A subreddit for anything related to games (but not sports). "Related" means that posts must contain gaming-related content in the link/post body, not just a "forced" connection via the title or a caption added to the content.

"Generic" image macros/memes (where the character itself is not related to gaming) like Scumbag Steve, Good Guy Greg, etc. will be removed. Something that "reminds you of a game", or "looks like something from a game" is also not an appropriate submission.

I actually think though that unlike cod, the halo series was actually excellent.

No one can deny the fact that halo 2 pretty much set the standard for online console games.

[–]SyntaxTheFourth 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I felt like the original game was a tad generic, but since then, contrary to the expected outcome, the series seemed to get better with age. Halo 2 and 3 were really quite good.

And besides, set up against the shameless re-releases of Call of Duty, Halo looks like innovation central.

[–]HellaBitchin 21 points22 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

While I normally agree with this sentiment, let me explain why I personally upvoted.

In seventh grade (get off my lawn etc.) a group of kids found something beautiful. There were a bunch of us who's parents wouldn't but halo for us because of violence etc. But there was the "Halo 1 Trial" (we actually referred to it as Halo 1, because the second had been long released).

In our homeroom class, around 4 of us all decided we would download the trial and play it one night. Some of us had mics, some weren't so lucky. One kid only had a laptop with a fucked up graphics card so every player displayed as green. Many betrayals were made. The 'room' (server? w/e it's the middle of the damn night here) was titled 7S (homeroom) and the password was Irene. We only told people FROM 7S the password so it was our exclusive little club. Eventually we gained some momentum. The fun we had on this map (as the trial ONLY had blood gulch) was endless. We never got bored of screaming at each other for being 'Shee-Whores'.

Eventually word spread of the password, and it became a huge thing. Every day after school we would get home as fast as possible and game for hours, losing a few men here and there to dinnertimes all over the city. At one point I was slammed up against the locker by this big bad ass kid for being especially handy with a pistol the night before. My one close friend downloaded the cliffmod and tormented us to no end. It was beautiful.

I don't know how it ended, but I truly do miss it. I have never had such a rewarding experience from a video game since, and I didn't even own the full version.

So maybe we all did play Combat Evolved, but behind every upvote there just might be a 7S Irene.

Valhalla and Sandtrap were both incredible maps, both of them because they struck such a good balance between vehicles and infantry. Each had opportunities to counter the other and they flowed well.

That one with the sort of city, buildings and cliff was pretty cool. Some of my favourite Halo memories were made on that map, whatever it was called. I never learned the names of the different areas on the maps either.

[–]theefle 6 points7 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I always prefered Damnation and Chill Out, but that's probably only because on the PC the smaller, more tactical maps took ten times the skill with the game's terrible hit registry delay/lead.

[–]BackwerdsMan 13 points14 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

IMO, the delay/lead is what made CE such a good game. It's not like it's successors where even a terrible player could get some kills. Halo CE was brutal. If you sucked, you were just torn to pieces over, and over, and over again.

[–]tartbear 6 points7 points ago

[–]theefle 1 point2 points ago

Oh absolutely. The reason CE still has a devoted fan base is because no other game has such an insane difficulty curve for online. Its a strange but satisfying thing, watching someone run into your sniper rounds.

[–]nomercyvideo 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

While working at THQ, at lunch we would lan party this level like crazy.

A few of us had a move called "The Tony Hawk" that involved driving a warthog and a ghost at their base.

The warthog would slam sideways into the base, the ghost that was following close behind would then use the warthog as a ramp, fly over their base, the rider would jump off, land through the hole of their base and grab the flag.

The other team caught on after a while, and used the tank parked behind the base to blast us out of the air.

[–]lordmalifico 23 points24 points ago

Private Christian A. Lewis here.

I sure as hell don't.

A six month long campaign in a fucking box canyon in the middle of nowhere. There were two of us. One red, one blue. I was the unfortunate blue bastard who got assigned to oversee the base when the other guys that were assigned there just up and vanished, and I thought I was alone. No problem, I thought! I could just read my books!

Three fucking days after I get there I come under sniper fire from some asshole in red armor. I run for it, and for like, a week, we're both too fucking scared to come out of our bases. Eventually we come into contact with each other for a 'truce', and I find out -he- is overseeing -HIS- base because of -HIS- team fucking vanishing out of nowhere!

How can over nine people vanish?!

It confused me as all get out, and the two of us put aside our differences temporarily to try to figure things out. The Scorpion Tank wouldn't move or even come online, but the AI on there kept saying 'I'm waiting for someone.' and refused to elaborate.

Eventually, the two of us, the Red and I, decided to stick it to command. We had to get out of here. I ring command, they send in a Pelican to check in on a 'Emergency' I reported, and we hijack that sucker.

We got a good head start on Command, but we were both captured and sent to UNSC prison. The only way I can even TELL you my story is because they saw it fit to assign me to another fucking outpost in the middle of nowhere.

I don't even know the proper name of this place. "Snowbound" is what it's called on the charts, and it's even smaller than the canyon I was in earlier! On top of the weather and the snow getting in everything, I think this is still somehow a prison, because there's like, man-sized turrets patrolling the perimeter ready to shoot anyone that leaves.

FML, guys. FML.

So to answer your question again. Do I have fond memories of fighting in Blood Gulch?

It was better than what I have here.

[–]lordmalifico 3 points4 points ago

Lewis again.

You've got me, buddy.

I'm stuck in a fucking icetrap in the middle of fucking nowhere, requisitioned from the War from all the dead aliens the Chief killed, and I've got a handful of prisoners under my command that have been given power armor. My buddy is on the other team, and he's trying with me to keep the whole lot of us from killing one another.

Things are -not- going well. Most of the time tension in my team is high, because either the fucking engineer that can't do shit without breaking something else like the idiot she is, or I'm stuck with a murdering lunatic that I'm afraid to be in the same room with alone.

He carved a skull into his visor! I don't even know how that's possible, but he took the time to carve a skull into his visor! And to top it all off, we've got another deserter in this group that only just gets in the way and -drones- on and on about how he was drafted and didn't want in.

OF COURSE YOU WERE FUCKING DRAFTED! WE ALL WERE! I don't need to spend my fucking waking hours listening to a rookie nag! Each hour, it's "Oh, when do you think they'll let us out of this place?" "When will we get new people to talk to?" "Why do you think Engie keeps breaking stuff?" "When are we going home?"

DO I LOOK LIKE A FUCKING ENCYCLOPEDIA?!

To make matters -that- much worse, it that they're sending in an Agent, some 'Freelancer' or some shit as part of a 'Protocol' or something to see how a military project would do in our unusual situation. I don't know what his name is, but his codename is Alaska.

This year is looking like it's going to -suck.-

Wow... I was just talking to a friend about one of our fondest gaming memories. It was a 4 hour CTF game on Blood Gulch that we played with another 4 person team over XBConnect. We made the most epic game winning cap at about 3am, and all four of us started screaming, and hugging each other. His parents came running down stairs thinking we were getting murdered or something. We won 3-2. Those poor dudes had to be absolutely depressed after losing such a long marathon of a game.

One day while hanging out with my cousin who is 5 years older than me, he puts in this game. I'm probably 5 or 6 at the time and have no idea how shooters work. We start playing and he utterly destroys me without lifting a finger. His friend calls and he says he'll be back in a minute and I could try and find his character while he was gone.

1.5 HOURS LATER: NO COUSIN, NO KILLS

Every few weeks I would come home from school to find my brother packing our parent's TV into the truck and handing me the Xbox. We'd head over to this kid's house who I never really knew. He had an old school 50 inch tv upstairs and a 30 something TV setup. all 4 tvs had at least 2 people every game sometimes it'd get up to full 16 player games. It was awesome.

A few years later when I was older I started doing the same thing with my friends and we'd have epic halo parties in my friend's basement. Then, people started doing drugs and sandlot style disappeared.

I've probably logged around 250 hours on that map (PC edition multiplayer). I was around when Halo 1 multiplayer first hit... Bungie-CTF-4 was where it was at. A lot of the Bungie staff would hang out in that room in particular. People like Rassberry and RICKJAMES were regulars. It was nuts.

I miss that game dearly sometimes.

Back when I was a freshman in high school we'd have massive LAN parties on the trial version during Computer Science I, and I'd always get the banshee and destroy everyone. The upperclassman always said "Heroin Bob, get out of the banshee!" Good times.

When I was a freshman, you had to be asked by an upperclassmen to be able to go to prom, so of course no freshman guys ever went. That night, we had a 3 on 3 match of CTF at the gulch that lasted 3 hours and 45 minutes. i think it was the funnest time i had in my long history of gaming.

Me and 4 friends spent an entire summer in a garage playing this game, can't describe how awesome it was. Later the sequels came out and we never played each for more than 2 weeks, they all felt like shitty expansion packs. but I'll never forget that summer.

I think Halo has aged pretty well, the art style really helps it. Of course, now that the remake has been released that doesn't really matter anymore because it looks pretty good now

Even though I still LAN H1 every week or 2 this still brings back amazing memories. As a kid I used to be a huge Nintendo fanboy, because I grew up on my sister's Gameboy and SNES. I always thought Halo was so stupid (Because it was Xbox and because there were no bots) even though I had never played it. Finally one day in 7th grade my friend invited me over to his house and we played a 3 person FFA on Blood Gulch on his massive tv and I instantly fell in love. Went out and bought an Xbox almost right away and ended up playing almost 6000 games of Halo 2 on Xbox Live. That was also the start of me truly playing games competitively so thanks to Halo my gaming career was vastly altered.

My friends and I played on this map so often that we even made up a mode for it: Tremors.

There's two humans, and two tremors. The humans start at one base, armed with nothing but a magnum each. The tremors start at the other base, armed with ghosts (but they can't fire their turrets). Humans cannot pick up other weapons, and tremors cannot leave their ghosts.

The humans win by reaching the other base on foot without getting smashed to bits by the tremors.
