Halo 3 Mythic Guide Version 2.0 - Floodgate

(author unknown) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 09:13:03 PST

Daniel 'Tyrant' Morris continues his Mythic Walkthrough, v2.0 - the latest chapter is the easiest level to play in all of Halo 3: Floodgate. Swing by and see how to beat this level in less than 5 minutes, even on Legendary, with All Skulls On! Only two levels remain - Crow's Nest, and The Ark. (Both are massive, and very difficult.)(Louis Wu 17:13:03 +0000)

Getting Politically Correct with Game Characters

(author unknown) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 07:00:32 PST

c0ld vengeance pointed out an article over at Destructoid - someone wondered what sort of role sexual orientation should play in games. Interestingly enough, a character with NO visible sexuality (Master Chief) was less 'real' than one with a sexual preference that differed from the writer's (Uncharted 2)! Not sure I understand that...(Louis Wu 15:00:32 +0000)

Reclaimer's back (thanks, TTL Demag0gue) - Episode 224 (Uncloaked Mysteries) was even posted a bit early last night, to make up for the dry spell. The Reclaimer is beginning to see the lay of the land... and over at Hawty McBloggy's, ODS Steve #48 (Plan Alpha) is online - with a plan that I wouldn't be comfortable being part of...(Louis Wu 14:54:30 +0000)

Leviathan noticed a very cool LEGO construction - dark angel built the Aegis Fate (the UNSC frigate hanging over Sand Trap) out of 3500 LEGO blocks... insane!(Louis Wu 14:53:56 +0000)

Bungie Store Bulks Up

(author unknown) — Wed, 11 Nov 2009 06:50:19 PST

No Halo goodies - but there ARE some Superintendent ones... swing by the Bungie Store to see the new stuff they've added. (Remember; Bungie no longer owns the rights to Halo, so they can't sell Halo-branded stuff there; don't get on their case TOO much about this. Hey, urk - how about a Superintendent plushie? It would probably look like a giant M&M... but I'd probably love it anyway.)(Louis Wu 14:50:19 +0000)

AH: Enemy Intel - Act 1

(author unknown) — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 21:47:18 PST

What's up y'all? I bring to you the first in a new series of videos for Modern Warfare 2, the Enemy Intel collection videos! Oh joy!

There are 45 hidden enemy intel laptops spread throughout the game, and there are two achievements tied to those 45. You get the first at 22 collected and the second at all 45. Here is a guide explaining the locations of all of the hidden intel in the first act! The second act should arrive shortly!

WE'S GOIN' CHICKEN HUNTIN'!

Yo guys, just a quick guide to picking up the "Colonel Sanderson" achievement in Modern Warfare 2. I've got some more videos processing right now and I'll throw them up as soon as they are complete. Hooray!

P.S. This game is bonkers.

Walmart: Xbox 360 Arcade + $100 Gift Card = Free CoD: MW2, extra 2 year warranty, extras.

rapture — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 15:32:38 PST

It has been over just 8 months since I got my Xbox 360 Elite back from repair at Microsoft so you know what that means! Hardware failure time! I must be my 6th or 7th hardware failure with my console; I'm experiencing the "Open Tray" error again.

But I also have a new console.

Walmart, until this weekend, is running a deal where you get a free $100 gift card when you buy an Xbox 360 Arcade for $199. So, now I've got a console that works. Works so that I can play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2.

Of course I used the $100 gift card to buy MW2. I also got a Chat Pad for my Xbox 360 Controller and, to my liking, an EXTRA 2 YEAR WARRANTY. That gave my Arcade console the 1-year Microsoft warranty plus the 2-year Walmart warranty for a total of a 3-year warranty.

I estimate that near 80% of all Xbox 360 consoles that my friends and I have break. And at $100 a pop for repairs, the $20 2-year warranty will pay for itself.

Subscribe to Xbox LIVE? Heck, I feel like I'm subscribing to Xbox console hardware.

Thank you Walmart.

I told you we'd be posting a ton of videos this week. How about a walkthrough for the Ghost Achievement in Modern Warfare 2.

So, the wait for Modern Warfare 2 is officially over - time to start the wait for L4D2. Also, if you get a chance, check out the plethora of CoD coverage over at Achievement Hunter. It's is off the hook. I'm sorry for saying that. I don't even know what the hook is, or where to look for one if I did.

AH: Call of Duty and Gay Tony

(author unknown) — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 12:41:31 PST

Morning everyone,
We're going to be throwing a ton of videos your way over the next few days (mostly CoD related), so let's get started. The first one is our first Modern Warfare 2 video, and covers the Pit Boss Achievement.

Next up, is (sadly) what will probably be our last Gay Tony vid for a while. It's a little tip vid for getting Gold Star Achievement (100% each mission).

How much movie did YOU get?

Cracked has a list of 5 Plot Devices That Make Good Video Games Suck - and Halo 3's penultimate level is their prime example of Device #3. Thanks, Vash10. (Louis Wu 20:14:47 +0000)
