Nice~ I'm totally going to geek out seeing the maps in glorious HD. >.>

My old Z3 does the same thing when the temp dial is fully set to cool. o.o

Yeesh! That's much worse indeed... :(

It's the only level I've never completed on legendary. Most other maps allow you to do a slow and tactical progression but as I recall, the Flood continuously spawn on The Library. :(

The Flood can be so frustrating but also so fun at the same time, lol. Is the Anniversary edition worth playing besides for nostalgia?

Ah, so dissension was already brewing among the Elites even before they lost charge of the Covenant fleet to the Brutes? Did not know that!

I'm considering Wildstar but will probably return to FF:XIV or TERA instead... until Blade & Soul is released. >.>

What's the deal with Tribes Ascend? I haven't played in a while... but that may change if it's on its death bed. :(

I really hope you're right that they will begin exposing more of the lore using new plot devices rather than re-hashing the Flood!

This year, four-time champs MotoCzysz didn't compete, leaving the Mugen team to dominate the field. Mission Motorcycles – the same company that's making a Tesla on two wheels – helped with the engineering, and with an oil-cooled, 134-hp electric motor the Mugen blasted through the 37.7-mile Snaefell Mountain Course in…

Hm~ Yea, the plot did get a little jumbled with the Covenant's in-fighting and the Flood still posing a threat to all. Personally, the Covenant's "civil war" seemed a little shallow; there wasn't any reasonable explanation for replacing the Elites with Brutes, much less trying to kill all of them.

The Top Gear series will always be my favorite in terms of pixelated racing.

The Flood might be getting a little long in the tooth for players, but a surprise return of the "forgotten enemy" could be a pretty interesting plot twist (e.g. the UNSC attempts to experiment with Flood samples found on another ring only for an Aliens-type outbreak to occur).

Personally, the three-way conflict was much more interesting than a mundane war between humans and aliens. The Flood also gave credence to the purpose of the rings and presumable downfall of the Forerunners without being too expository.

Apparently Geraldine Doyle, who was probably the woman used as the basis for the "We Can Do It!" poster, quit her factory job after two weeks for fear of injuring her hands because she was a cello player.

Ugh. The Library... so miserable... especially on Legendary. q.q

lol Yea, it's definitely a close call between Formula D and RallyCross for the title of "douchiest culture"! :P

This one's likely to elicit a few groans, as the Flood isn't exactly the most popular enemy faction in Halo for many players. Nevertheless, the Flood was a core part of the original Halo trilogy, and its absence was felt in recent games, for better or for worse.

You give me too much credit; I merely did a little touch-up. :P

Dat photo. I just came... a lot.
