Mythbusters Take On Halo 3

Grundy The Man writes, "Nearly everyone is familiar with the Discovery Channel show, Mythbusters. Some industrious gamers have decided to take matters into their own hands, going through and testing numerous myths associated with Bungie's Halo 3. They have managed to produce 5 episodes worth of mythbusting goodness and the video evidence leaves nothing to doubt. Check out each the five episodes here..."

I'm pretty much done with Halo 3, but these videos were pretty cool.

bgrundman6432d ago

yeah, I was, but knowing these game quirks makes me want to jump back in and try them out for myself. You going to give it a try?

JimmyJames706432d ago

I traded away my copy of Halo 3 a long time ago and got several other games in exchange.

bgrundman6432d ago

It amazing how if you have the right game, you can end up getting several others for it in exchange. Kinda funny how that works.

demondoor6432d ago

with the music on the first one i just couldnt watch it all without slitting my wrist, other than that it was a nice show

bgrundman6432d ago

Thank you, I knew that the videos would be appreciated by n4g's audience.

jonnyp7776432d ago

..that was a little harsh. Angels & Airwaves is awesome. What would you prefer, some Jonas Brothers?

Keele6432d ago

Mythbusters kicks serious ass.

bgrundman6432d ago

Amen to that brother. this kind of reminds me of the viral myths episode I saw recently. Makes me grin just thinking about it.

Jimmy the Greek6432d ago

some interesting video. i havent had the time to watch all of them but the myth about grenades not sticking to each other, with the exception of the spike, is kind of true and kind of false when it comes to the plamsa. i swear ive seen video of a frag getting blown off the floor and catch a plasma in midair. the plasma wont stick to live grenades but maybe to dormant ones. its possible the frag no the floor threw the plasma off and just followed its new path.

bgrundman6432d ago

Maybe we should see if these guys could be hunted down to test that, thank goodness forge allows us to test damn near anything now!

Thatlalala6432d ago

What's up with the Elite not being able to get to get hit in the neck. I liked the one about taking the Pelican down to.

bgrundman6432d ago

I was wondering how a bug that significant could actually make it through the QA process. That is kind of a glaring problem!

That's Microsoft's gaming division for you...kill off developers making new ip while trying to capitalize off some long lost glory that has no hope of ever being what it once was thanks to recent decision making favoring unrealistic profit goals and greed. What a joke.

Reaper22_214d ago

So much bitterness. Why be upset over something like this. Just don't buy it and stick with what you prefer.

Tacoboto213d ago

Complaining about Microsoft is the only thing people comment here for anymore.

This website is practically dead without it

Mmmkay213d ago

I remember when you guys constantly complained about Sony remaking and remastering games. Guess it is cool now. As usual.

thesoftware730213d ago

Give it rest medman..., take a deep breath and try to not sound so invested in something no one is forcing you to read, buy, or play.

"Console war"is over, Sony won, be happy.

medman208d ago (Edited 208d ago )

@thesoftware730
I'm invested in people losing their jobs and their livelihoods while Microsoft execs tout record profits for their gaming division. Not sure why you wouldn't be invested. Could be you one day. Good luck.

Travesty214d ago

So what’s their solution to having multiplayer? Wait until Halo 7?
That was one of the most memorable parts of Halo..

monkey602214d ago

I'm not sure spending the heavy investment in time to recreate the multiplayer here is the answer either though.
Remaking the campaigns is a great idea to bring the new players up to speed. But if the multiplayer is included in each it'll just fracture the player base of each release.
I think it might be better to turn these campaigns out quicker and have 1 multiplayer game to keep everyone in one place

Travesty213d ago

Maybe having an Halo Online and just release the Combat Evolve maps. And when Halo 2 releases have those maps release. I don’t know but I would like to play a newer version of Halo multiplayer. I know times have changed, and Fortnite is all younger kids really play. But back then it was Halo and you connecting 6 Xbox’s together lol.

jjb1981213d ago

I agree. I think that'll segment the playerbase and once 7 comes out, players might realize it sucks and go back to the older games. Especially if 7 is live-servixe, they'll be shooting themselves in the foot on the one good leg they have to stand on.

crazyCoconuts213d ago

Kinda surprised they didn't just port MCC.
Maybe more $ to by made with separate remasters

Inverno213d ago

Wouldn't have that problem if it were MCC being released. Gotta wait for 7 to be disappointed with MP all over again cause if they half baked Infinite what makes people think they won't half bake the next game? MP works in past HALO games not cause of nostalgia but because it's MP that isn't concerned with the endless service approach.

JEECE213d ago

There is so much cognitive dissonance over Infinite. People say they didn't like it because it was a live service. Yet if you look at what the criticisms of it were at the time it came out and when the playerbase started falling off, the primary issue people had was a lack of updates. In other words, it wasn't enough of a live service.

Which is really an encapsulation of the problem with multiplayer today. So many people think that they want to go back to the "good old days" of mid-2000s multiplayer (The first few Halos, Socom, the first few Battlefields, CS 1.6, etc), but in reality if a multiplayer game like that came out today, people would whine about the lack of content within a month of launch and go back to a live service with a grindy progression system.

isarai213d ago

Why not just port the MCC? 🤔 That was the easiest layup ever and you completely missed it

franwex213d ago

30% profit margins! People will pay $70+ for remakes!

Software_Lover213d ago

I thought the same thing, then I realized that they wouldn't include the remakes in that edition. We may get a different version of Halo MCC in the future with all of the remakes included. I just want them to include Halo 5 at some point for PC.

TheColbertinator213d ago

Can they remake Reach too with the multiplayer?

Knightofelemia213d ago

I wonder if Microsoft will port Reach over to Playstation I quite enjoyed that game. I played Halo 3 and it was not bad I have Halo 2 on the OG Xbox I just need some cables to hook up to my tv to play it.

This collab proves that New Halo games coming to Playstation: CONFIRMED

The last pillar has fallen XD

Tedakin293d ago

I mean Helldivers 2 is coming to Xbox in 2 weeks. It has a Playstation Studios logo on it. The first pillar has fallen.

lukasmain293d ago

LOL you think a live service game is a Playstation pillar? hahahahahaha

1Victor292d ago

The first pillar has fallen.
🤦🏿 Well the competitor’s house already got 2/3 pillars down and the 3rd one is rotted to the core about to fall any minute now bringing down the glass house of cards down FOREVER 🤣
THE WAR IS OVER DEAL WITH IT

Reaper22_291d ago

It doesnt matter. You can get playstation stuff on PC. That pillar fell a long time ago. And next gen it will continue to fall.

Tedakin293d ago (Edited 293d ago )

@lukasmain Their one successful live service game, and their most successful game in the last few years. Yeah I do.

lukasmain293d ago (Edited 293d ago )

It's not a pillar. Expect ALL live serviice games to come over. That includes that upcoming Marvel Tokon Fighting Souls as well at some point. But the PILLARS are the amazing single player games. The games they built their brand on. Helldivers LAUNCHED on PC. It's not a Playstation Pillar
