apart from the rest of what you said, what does the first question have to do with ppl playing online or going online on their respective consoles?
doubt it, with about 1/3 to 1/4 of all 360 owners having a copy, dont think there would be much more that would get it
math came from about 10mil copy sold, and about 33-40mil 360's out there (i know there arent exactly 40mil 360's out there, it was just an approximation)
rent the game, you only need the disk...and i dont think there ARE going to be other ways to play the beta, cause this isnt a demo, its only gunna last for as long as they need to get the data they require
they went so far as to put one specific game mode "generator defense" to stress out their game to see if it can handle it, generator defense may not even make it as a ship gametype
this beta is supposedly unlikely to last a month because like i said befor...
if it doesnt get successful when natal ships, then i would think it would be safe to say that xbox will never get successful in japan
lol...and their reasoning for the weaponry(at least the one the guy gave while on gttv interview on friday) was that this was all prototype on reach and IT went along with reach when it got glassed
only thing i ever duel wield in h3 were the pink needlers, it was the only think extremely useful, maybe the occasional plasma rifle also, but still only alternated while the other was cooling down...i liked the maulers as a single weapon to melee right after the shot, other than that, i dont think i turned to the other weapons unless i was out of ammo and needed to pick up a weapon asap
there is still the original hit button, which is "b", to melee you need to hold it
assassinations serve for 2 purposes and you pointed one out, ego boost (and satisfaction) to the player that pulls it off, and humiliation to the player that lets someone sneak up behind him long enough to get assassinated and third (i know i only wote "2" up there) it just looks so cool to watch...but thats not to say, they will not add it to a daily/weekly challenge or achieve...
@OP - they are still thinking about whether or not to keep one hit kills from behind, and it might just end up as being 2 hits from anywhere, one to take out shield, second to finish
lol @ teabagging+, thats pretty much what it is, to humiliate the opponent, seeing as how he has to watch himself helplessly get assassinated, same thing with teabagging, you have to sit and watch someone teabag you when your dead
@ alpha-male22 - i bet they will occasionally put that as...
all assassinations should automatically end with a teabagging animation lol
just to make things clear, i wasnt agreeing or disagreeing with what troll eater said, i was just fixing what he was trying to say
i played halo ce for the first time in who knows how many years...now im planning a halo marathon (including ODST but not WARS) whenever im free for the weekend, cant do it this week cuase of prior arrangements, but i definitely will soon, lol especially with beta coming in a little over 2 weeks
you put the emphasis on the wrong word
"the DEFINITIVE FPS" ftfy
great civil post...i like it when ppl give credit where its due +bubble, even tho you have plenty lol
when first reading your post, i was going to tell you that you should just rent odst to try out the beta, its prolly something you shouldnt miss even if you dont end up buying the full release, but then you also dont have gold membership, so i dont think it would you any good since its not system linkable, and i dont think theres custom matchmaking
lastly, what you w...
atl, you got it right the first time, yea youre crazy
this is a premature answer seeing as how i havent looked at the animations from a 360 point of view, but the majolnir armor isnt a one piece...there are plenty of unprotected places on the armor that you can stab, especially from up close
nope...theyre using both, ps3 as the grill and 360 as the heat source ;)
cant really take him serious guys...he made that account like a month ago...as for what he said, i wouldnt be too surprised if started gaming during this gen and only researched back about last gen lol...hell i gamed since snes/genisis days, but only really started gaming during n64, but i do do my research
HALO 4!!!!! lol, just kidding
SpaceSquirrel and movements have already mentioned the 2 obvious guesses...i would think its either a teaser trailer for a new IP they have been said to have been working on, or a demo of the first level of reach
no offense to this, it could have some quality stuff (btw, i hope they mean channel"s", meaning more than one) if i wanted to watch tv, i wouldnt be on the xbox would i?
BUT, and this is a big but, if this meant tv channel"s", then for a person living alone or something, this could be money saving, if they went ahead and just cancelled their cable, and from then on just payed the yearly subscription and internet, since they wouldnt need cable anymore and just ...
