Halo Series Weekly Newsletter Issue #6 Published April 19, 2009







I'd like to start this Newsletter of with a glimpse of the past
and the memories that wont be forgotten..









Alright and now on to the Important Stuff..


Firstly, I'd like to say.. Sorry for slacking off for so long..

Secondly, I'd really just like to say thanks to pretty much all my buddies that i've made here in the halo section, i wouldn't be here doing this if it weren't for you guys.

Lastly, Thanks to JayKwik for Donating to My Rainbow Orb ( Here's your shout out, man )













Halo 3 Orlando Championship 4v4 Winner is Instinct!


The Rest of the Placed..


2nd - Classic
3rd - Final Boss
4th - Status Quo
5th - Believe The Hype
6th - Triggers Down
7th - Darkest Hour
8th - Str8 Rippin













Can May 3rd, get here any Quicker?
Chances are, if you're the kind of person who downloads the Halo: Reach multiplayer beta right on May 3,
you're going to notice something a bit quirkier.
I'm not talking about the obvious changes that Reach brings to Halo's multiplayer, such as Armor Abilities or melee assassinations.
I'm talking about the fact that when you're not jumping into the usual Slayer or King of the Hill matches,
you're suddenly playing new game modes like, "Headhunter" or "Stockpile."
With just a few weeks to go before the beta opens up to Halo 3: ODST owners,
Bungie has finally detailed some of the new modes debuting in the beta.

Headhunter:
The official Bungie description is, "a new 'party' game [...] where the goal is to collect and capture the most skulls."
Basically, players drop a skull upon death, and you just want to scoop that skull and carry it to a designated skull deposit zone (that actually moves around the map).
You can carry multiple skulls, but here's a warning: if you're killed before scoring, then you drop all the skulls you had.
In fact, Bungie points out, "you have a nice navpoint over your head showing everyone in the game how many skulls you are carrying.
When you have ten, then that actually shows up as a flashing star or VIP waypoint, to let everybody know you're the one guy to go after."

Stockpile:
This is, "another 'party' gametype that is sort of like Territories meets with Capture the Flag.
" That is, both teams are racing to capture four neutral flags that spawn on the map and successfully return them to their respective (and active) capture points.
Bungie elaborates, "Stockpile flags appear randomly throughout the map at pre-set flag-spawn points.
Experienced players will learn the ten or so spots they can appear in the Beta maps, but they won't be able to predict which ones will be used at any given time."





Now, time for RANDOMS OF THE WEEK:
  • FragUp
  • Thing1
  • Frost814
  • izzet
  • Req0479
  • Aero_Change
  • otterjethro

I would jizz if they remade Halo 2 into Halo 3 graphics

Keep EVERYTHING the same super jumps, glitches, bxr, double shots... and also a special game mode where there weren't double shots to keep it balanced. (for nubs who use modded controllers)
