Right now I'd have to say that my favourite game moment was playing with the HBO Spartans on Containment the first night... I was gunner on a Gauss Hog running up the left-side tunnel when my driver got out (can't remember why). As he was getting back in I noted three enemy players out on the snow field, and then my driver was headshotted by a sniper. Stuck in the resulting crossfire I plinked two out of the three other players with the Gauss Cannon... and missed the 3rd shot, resulting in my virtual brains splashing all over the now empty 'Hog.

Still, a fun four seconds of play. Smile

-- Steve's looking forward to playing a bit this weekend... maybe tonight.

The one memory that sticks out in my head is a Big Team Battle that we played a few nights ago on Containment...

Mutant and I were driving back from grabing the other teams flag, trying to get out of their base, lo and behold there is a Scorpion waiting at the entrance for us.

I drove to the side of the tank, flippng the Warthog over. We did a chinese firedrill and turned the Hog right side up again.

While driving away, the tank turned and fired hiting our hog in the rear.

We flew up in the air doing about 7 end over ends in the short flight.

We landed on all four wheels and drove away to our base.

All this time, Mutant and I were yelling "Oh S&*%!" while we were flying and after we landed.

a few of my favorite things:

"accidentally" killing Dante

the giggle

betty boop

sneaking up behind snipers and yelling "Yar!" (like a pirate) when I attack

blue team singing in freeze tag (in moderation)

"...um, I'm from Detroit."

I liked that vehicular homicide game-style. That should be brought out of mothballs.

In case you might be interested...

Quote:
# Relic is a big map set on a sandy islet on Delta Halo. A large Forerunner structure runs along its spine, and in CTF games, is a primary flag point. The structure contains loads of weapons, a teleport (that has to be unlocked) and plenty of hiding places. The varying terrain, and a human base at the tip of the island, provide lots of variety. We like playing single flag CTF with middle to large sized teams on it.
# Backwash is set in a swamp on Delta Halo. You can tell it's Delta Halo because Penitent Tangent is floating around humming to himself. The mist and trees provide plenty of cover, and a central power generating structure is a great place to get ambushed with a shotgun. The map works really well for Slayer, Oddball, and King of the Hill, but CTF and Assault are challenging too.
# Terminal is a larger, asymmetric map with lots of vertical levels, two parking lots, and oh yeah, a superfast out of control train hurtling through the map in either direction. It's a very, very flexible map that works for all sorts of Gametypes. CTF, snipers, team Slayer, you name it. Good use of vehicles and an Earth setting give it a scary, gritty feeling. There are also lots of hiding places.
# Gemini is a deceptively big and mostly indoor level set on High Charity. The Covenant environment is dark and foreboding, and the twisty corridors and teleporters make it a tough level to navigate when you're pursuing a flag carrier, for example. Learning shortcuts here is key to success, and note the location of the enormous Prophet statue…
# Elongation is a remake of Longest, set aboard an orbiting spacecraft, actually a supply ship near the Cairo. Two moving conveyor belts move materiel and supplies (crates) along the central spine of the structure, while smart players try to stay above the fray as long as possible. Fantastic for small team CTF and Assault matches, but just as much fun for slayer mayhem. Don't forget to look out of the windows. Pretty out there…

A shocking thing happened last night....SpaceBass was on playing Halo last night! It was just the two of us for a while as there was no one on and he didnt seem to belive me that there was still a healthy Beekeeper presence on live. Dante did join us later. Hopefuly he will join us more often, sometime when there are people on Smile

Yesterday saw an amazing match in which my friend and I, after having two teammates drop out at the beginning of a midship match, came back from a damn near 20 point deficiency and managed to win the match by a single point. The best part being that we both killed someone at the same time at the end, so we would have won either way ;p

I know where I was... curled up in a La-Z-Boy reading, utterly torpedoed by allergies despite being on antihistamines. XboxLive just isn't as fun when you're peering at the screen through puffy eyes while trying to mute the mic before all sneezes.

Damn trees and their public tree-orgies. Bleh.
