Pussy faggot. Should stick to your guns and play Reach. But nope play the literal second worst Halo. For as much as you all bitch how bad it is, you sure can't get enough of it

Really curious to know the artist or what the fuck this is from. I really enjoy this illustration. Anyone know it's source?
These don't look like humans! They look like worms, or chickens, or bats or some shit! One of them literally has a shovel for a face, and the eyebrows are going over the hair; not to mention that their eyes are 1/4th the size of their breasts. Why are they wearing 18th century french maid lingerie on the beach? Fuck anime, and fuck anyone who fails to criticize anime!
It was a holiday and all of my family was coming over the house I spent my middle school years in (age 9-13). It was a townhome and the front door to the home was actually on the second level of the place, it lead directly to the kitchen and to the living room. Since the front door was on the second level, we usually used the door in the garage (on the first level to get in and out of the house) Anyways, the front door was a thick wooden door and a glass door behind it. All of my family was inside the living room doing family stuff and I had to take my dog out. For whatever reason, I decided to go out of the front door, no one has used this door today. I noticed that my mom had apparently left it unlocked, I was really confused by this because my mom was very conscious of this sort of stuff. As I was thinking about why the door was unlocked, I looked up. For whatever reason, on the overhand in front of our door, there was a way into a sort of outdoor attic, closet type space and it was open. It freaked me out and I knew I’d have to tell people about it. I took my dog for a long walk as the sun was going down and came back to the front door, the door was now locked and the attic was closed. I rang the door bell and people were still inside to let me in. I told them the story and they didn’t think anything of it, even though they knew what the implications of my story were. There was someone hiding in the attic. We talked about it for a second and everyone except my mother and grandmother left. It was around 12 am or so when we were all still in the living room making small talk about the attic. I had a horrible feeling about it. I decided to look for a phone to call the cops, as I was doing that there was a knock on the glass that lead to our deck and the door slid open. A man in an of scream costume made his way in the home carrying a large knife. I woke the fuck up instantly. Important to note that I took Benadryl last night

Well, at least the dream didn't escalate too far from there. But trust me when I say i know how bad the feeling of impending death in a dream can be, even when you cant see the source.
William Mitchell
can someone tell me how to start playing halo with /halogeneral/ ??? do you guys have a discord or some shit or what? what are the calender dates? what game?
Yeah, it was more of the buildup that was so weird. I always had bad feeling in that house growing up, there was a break-in in one of the home behind us at one point and I never saw the place the same way. So, to be back and the house in the dream and find out that there had been someone just camping out in our attic, watching us the entire time is horrifying.
Thank you user
Daniel Smith
We just play bro. We have a discord but its stupid circlejerk bullshit that people don't actually use to play Halo. Calendar dates are laughable, and only happen a few times a year. Any game. If you want to play let people know you're hosting, on what game and your gamertag. You can post a little before you start playing to let people get their shit together.
It aint rocket surgery

>bling
Jonathan Bennett
do you guys start out playing halo then like strip off coz its hot inside haha, and then like accidentally reach for the controller but grab each others cocks haha that'd be awkward right? lol and then imagine if one of your housemates had a really nice shave boyhole haha and you started playing with it haha
It's a shame he didn't live long enough to receive it.
Jack Watson
this is great
Kevin Ross
/hg/ should organise a 16 man custom game of RACE in halo combat evolved maps like blood gulch, infinity, death island, sidewinder....
i dont think you KEKS realise how fun RACE is as a gametype, getting in warthogs, tryna speed past the enemy team to the checkpoints and having your gunner blast those following you
Eli Robinson
I wish I was an elite and had a homolust relationship with another elite and we flexed on humans and their dual-jaw bipedal inferiority with our quad-jaw superiority
also noble 6 would have the pinkest boibussy
Brandon Barnes
now do one announcing his death like half skull half helmet or something.
Brayden Diaz
I saw him online last night in a party with IJ
Daniel Robinson
Impeach. Red. Now.

IF SOMEONE DOESNT PLAY COOP MCC CAMPAIGN OR MULTIPLAYER WITH ME IN THE NEXT 10 MINUTES I WILL DO SOMETHING

Yes, 343 raped what is possibly one of the dullest game franchies in the history of game franchies. Each game following the emotionless green husk and his blue sidebitch from the UNSC as they fight repetitive bullet sponge villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the repetitive forerunner architecture and formulaic enemies, the games' only consistency has been their lack of excitement and inneffective use of NPC AI, all to make shooting genocidal aliens non-threatening.
Perhaps the die was cast when 343 vetoed the idea of the Halo games being a trilogy, they made sure the series would never be mistake for a work of art that meant anything to anbody, just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for Bungie. The Halo series might be anti-gaming, but it's certainly the anti-fun series it its refusal of coherent plotlines and use of pointless themes that feel shoehorned more often than not.
>A-at least the Bungie trilogy was good though r-right "No!" The level design is dreadful, the reuse of the first 4 levels to form the last 4 levels is an insult to the players intelligence and the plot makes zero sense. As I played, I noticed that every time Master Chief walked through a forerunner structure, Bungie made sure to make sure that he would walk through the same structure 10 times over in that level alone.
I began marking on the back of my controller every time I walked down a copy pasted forerunner corridor. I stopped only after I had marked the controller several dozen times. I was incredulous. Frank O'connor's mind is so governed by the command-C command-V shortcut that he has no other style of map design. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Halo by the same Microsoft that publishes the series. They wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are BXR'ing players in Halo 2, when they get older they will be betraying team mates for power weapons" And Microsoft was quite right. They were not being ironic.

I’m ignoring the post above me

First time visiting this general, do you guys usually play MCC? Any games arranged for the upcoming weekend?
You do know Frankie was nothing but a pen pusher at Bungie right? The only reason he has any following/prominence are his ties with Bungie which were mainly community interaction. Beyond giving yes and nos at 343 he probably has little involvement in the actual game development and even then he would be overruled. Hes just a figurehead at this point and a condescending one at that
Kayden Gonzalez
I can't user. I'm working. But if you post your GT in the club on Xbox I'll play with you when I can

>First time visiting this general, do you guys usually play MCC? We do play MCC, but Easter is a tricky subject for a lot of anons due to traveling. Maybe somebody should set up a custom night. I'll see what I can do
Would be pretty cool to get to play some H1/2 especially. (I'll probably know better tomorrow if I have time for the weekend.) Where do people usually play from? I'm from europe so I'm not too sure about the connections.
