Halo 3 Buzz?

People love to create hype...so it does not surprise me that hype has alreadly started...for Halo 3. A game that isn't even officaly announced, but obviously coming. If you've beaten Halo2...you know why.

Now, I have not beated it on Legendy yet. However, others hae and have told me of a certain eatser egg/ hint in the end credits...a date. February 9th. No year.

What could this mean? Well, it could be DLC...maybe new maps (time frame seems right). Or it could be something bigger, like Bungie's next project. Or something much, much bigger...like Halo 3. Now, while this seems very impossible, there are some clues that may very well hint at this.

Sountack, Volume One?
Intentional Cliff Hanger?

Now, if I was to precict anything on the matter, first I'd say theres no way in hell its gonna ever happen. But, if, say, it did, I'd wager it would be a more like Halo 2.5. Maybe just a single player. Maybe just the ending of Halo 2...done right. Whatever the case, I doubt it would be a full-flaged title. But, then, why would Bungie release it so soon? Microsoft would be much better off to wait and release it for Xbox 2...if its coming out this year. In a way, this rumor leads to another...if Xenon ready for a Holiday 05 release? Perhaps, if the rumor has any truth to it, not. Microsoft loves money, and Halo is the ultimate seller.

But Bungie has ultimatly brought this upon themselvs, have they not? The placed this date there, they called the Soundtrack Vol. 1, and they chose to end the game at a very bad spot. So, when a Bungie employe posts like he's mad at the very thought of Halo3...pehaps that to is an imision of some truth.

Also, it was a Bungie emploer who first mentioned Halo 3...remeber his quote, something like "Halo2 and 3 are coming along nicly" (still found under the Bungie history section, mind you). For furthur proof, a gaming magazine recently posted on a small sidenote that Halo 3 was coming "sooner later than latter." Is Feb 9th the sooner?

Rocket or Sniper?

Situations in life may need you to look at your options in differant ways. Which is better, to pick up a sniper rifle or a rocket launcher to get an enemy a considerable distant away that has a small area of weakness.

The rocket launcher would for sure do the job, but maybe too much so (splash damage). But the sniper may not work if your no good enough.

I chose the

What to get me?

Christmas time ois a coming, and hoping to end p with the "best tree ever", Ive created an Amazon wishlist...those things are great! Kinda scary, though, as Amazon knows exactly what I want all the time!

Interesting....Very Iteresting

(From Bungie.net's Whats What)

WarierRelic asks,
Hey Frankie I'm a diehard Halo fan, and after I beat Halo 2 I was left with a sense of incompletion. Now I'm not complaining, Halo 2 is excellent especially multiplayer, but I just need to know something. What was the reasoning behind the ending, did you guys intend on the cliffhanger initially or did you guys just run out of time. I'm just so frustrated, I wish you guys would just use the current engine and make the second half of this story. I just cant wait 3 years to get to the REAL battle.

Halo 2's ending is a cliffhanger. Intentionally

Let the Halo3 buzz begin

No, Im not Dead

I know its been like 2 weeks since my last blog...but I went away for Thanksgiving, and havn't done much save play Halo2 since...so I really didn't have much to say.

Im making up for it by posting like 5 posts in an hour!

Halo2 Gets New Lists

Wow, I really can't belive it. Not becuase they are alll that cool, but becuase Bugnie did what they said they would. Seriously, how mamny friggin developers come and say "Oh yeah, we'll have DLC, we'll make it fast, we'll update" and then never show?! The best example of this is Unreal II....almost a year and still no DLC! Thats really sad.

Kudos Bungie...for, ah, doing what you said you would. (BTW, team Slayer rocks now!)

(BABTW (But Also By the way :) ) Why did you have to make the matvches so long now! I lied the six minute thing! Now when Colouses pops up Im stuck there forever!

KOTOR II First Reveiw

KOTOR II's first reveiw is up over at IGN....They gave it a 9.2, which is pretty good.

I think this game has really been overshadowed by Halo2...Im not even sure if I will pick it up on Monday...might better off waiting for Sanata to bring it...

Halo 2 Kills Killzone

Got a chance to demo KillZone today, the game that was dubbed the "Halo Killer". It sucks. To even think of comparing it to the Holy Rock from the Bungie Gods is a sin to humanity.

The basis of the game is kinda cool. It's Halo, except the Covenant are Comies with three eyes and love red and killing us. And their from another world. Odd how Karl Marx;s theories get around, eh?

The game dosn't let you jump! You crawl around like a little babay solider, becuase, YOUR HUMAN! No one wants to play as a lame human when you can be the awsome SPARTAN!

Also, you can see my stats for Halo2 here
Clan stats Here

OK, so I didn't Follow my Schedule

But I did play alot of Halo2. It's mawsoem. i have never played a better game, and I really, REALLy mean it. It's just amazing.The online is like nothing you have ever played before in yur life.

I had my LAN party on Thursday, went great! Everyone had a blast, and Halo2 was, of course, awsome.
