Satisfying Stick

I got a pretty satisfying stick, and it was pretty long range for my standards.


There's my target.


And the toss!


Stuck ya.


And then he blew up. Poor feller.


Turned out that it got me a Killjoy as well. This made it just a little bit more satisfying in that I knew someone was on a roll, and then got unknowingly stuck from afar.

I Got Splattered All Over a Wall in Halo

It was kinda funny, that's why I decided to post it. Here's how it went down.


Me. running along, blissfully-unaware of my impending death.


The chase is on...a chase I didn't know I was a part of until...


This happened...


And that's my face going into a wall.

Never saw it coming. But I did laugh afterwards.

Misc. Halo Shots

I just played a match of Team BRs on one of the new Mythic maps, Assembly. It was sweet, I totally got MVP, a +8 kill/death spread, and noticed that after collecting all the skulls (which I've recently spent some free time on) it gave me enough gamerpoints to get myself the long awaited perk of having a sword on my character's back! Hooray! Here's some screenshots.


It was a slow start, and I ended up looking like this a whole bunch.


First part of my first double kill.


Part 2 of that double kill, along with a suicide, awesome!


Double kill 2, also, you can see the Hayabusa sword on my back. Totally sweet.


And the team running together, victorious.

New Halo Map Pack Pics

I just downloaded the new Halo 3 Mythic Map Pack and it seems pretty cool. It's got three new multiplayer maps (Assembly, Orbital, and Sandbox) and a buncha random achievements and other nonsense. Here's some shots from some matches I played on the new maps...mostly getting my ass kicked in the process.

Assembly

See that explosion on the right side of the picture?


That's me blowing up!


Pretty sweet background in this stage.


I got a killing spree!


Then I fell to my death.

Orbital

This one's more cavernous.


Probably one of the only kills I got.


Following a teammate up some stairs to my death most likely.


Running past a couple Mongooses, which I can hardly imagine using in this level.

Sandbox

This map doesn't seem to be that great, but is supposedly the best for customization in the Forge.

That's not to say it isn't fun launching missles across the open landscape.


And they threw in some vehicles just for good measure.

All in all, I'd say it was worth 10 bucks. Halo is fun.

The Chief is Dead, Episode 2 and My Newest Medals

Here's episode 2 of "The Chief is Dead", starring the Master Chief...only, you know...dead.


Sleep it off. Notice how his left hand could easily have a stiff drink in it.


He must have fallen from pretty high up to go right through the metal flooring.


I don't have a good caption for this one, it's just an awkward position.


Dead Chief does push-ups, cheater-push-ups though.


Dead Chief humps the....wall? Wait a second...

And my medals! These are only achieved in Ranked matches, if I listed social matches I'd have 20 kills in a row! Ah well, here ya go:

Shotgun Spree: Killed 5 opponents in a row with the shotgun.

Skyjacker: Hijacked a flying vehicle from an opponent. This one was particularly satisfying.

Incineration: Killed an opponent with the flamethrower. Also pretty satisfying.

Some Screenshots and Another Achievement

I got another achievement in Halo 3! While it's kind of a boring one (only worth 5G too), I still felt compelled to post about it. It's called Too Close to the Sun and happened when I blasted this guy in a Banshee with a Spartan Laser.

Continuing on the theme of destroying Banshees, here's some shots of me bashing this guy in his Banshee with my Gravity Hammer.


The approach...


Trying to blast me.


So, we learned that one should not fly near the Chief when he's holding a hammer.

And just for kicks, here's a shot of me and an ally getting deeeestroyed from all sides.

Guess I wandered into a bad neighborhood.

Another Achievement and The Chief is Dead, Episode 1

I was playing this weekend's "Double EXP Weekend" today on Halo 3, which is "Team Melee", consisting of only melee weapons (Hammers and Swords), when I realized that the Chief dies in some pretty hilarious positions(I also unlocked a new Achievement, "Came...From..Behind").

I decided it was up to me to document some of these in the first of a (maybe) ongoing segment "The Chief is Dead":


Chief is ashamed of being dead and hides his head in his hands.


Chief flies upwards, well beyond the limits of the level Pit Stop.


I used to sleep like this (butt upturned) when I was about 2 years old.


Chief has had too much to drink and needs to "clean house" over the edge of this oil rig.


Homeless chief can fall asleep in pretty much any position.


Conjoined-dead-Chief-myslexia.

More to come!
(hopefully)

New Halo Achievement!

I sat down with Halo today for the first time in a while and I unlocked a brand new achievement: Steppin' Razor! It was during a match of Swords on Guardian, I got 2 Triple Kills, 2 Sword Sprees, a +6 Kill/Death spread (alright, not amazing) and just generally did a lot of stabbing and slashing of my opponents.


Those 2 in the background were my kills, this guy is number 3. If you look closely you'll notice a grenade that he stuck onto my face...

There's me about to explode...


And...well, that kinda speaks for itself, no?


This was me approaching my final victim.


And victory!

A tale of betrayal and heartbreak indeed. Halo continues to be king, Resistance and Warhawk can suck on Master Chiefs sweaty, robotic (I think?) nuts.
