Goodbye Halo 2

Goodbye Halo 2

Last night was the last time Halo 2 will ever be playable over Xbox Live. Personally, I didn't attend (I got rid of Halo 2 ages ago - I never envisioned a time when we'd play it again), but I have spent the time being devoted to Halo 2 in other ways. I've been listening to the soundtrack (thanks again…

Halo 2 screenshots

That piece the other day reminded me of all those screenshots we took of Halo 2 years ago. They used to be up on the gallery that was integrated into our old phpBB2 forum, but I have them saved and would like to try and reproduce them here for you now. Bear in mind, with no screenshot feature in Halo 2 these were photographs of a TV screen taken by Orca.

CAUTION! There are 37 thumbnails!

Directionless

This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. Even a Halo 2 session with the jovial and cheery RF guys cant cheer me up anymore. My modem's been playing up a bit recently, and the one time I could get on there to have a laugh, it was laggy as hell and everyone disappeared sharpish.…

Retarded SQL things

This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. And I'm back to thinking that the £80 paid for two years hosting was a waste again. I've just spent an absolute age trying to work out why the RSS feeds aren't working properly and why the SQL stupid things were being retarded. I really have little…

Ah, Rez was good

This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. Finally unlocked the last custom colour scheme for Direct Assault on the PS2 version, it was literally years ago that I 100%ed the Dreamcast version, seems a lifetime ago. I always forget how hard area 2 is to 100%... Listening to the soundtrack is one thing, but…

I have a dream

I was going to do an entry yesterday talking about some Random Fury members and how much I appreciate them wanting to voluntarily play under the RF banner, but Jane came in and I got side-tracked. It’ll have to wait now, as I have something else to say.

Whilst Orca is designing a Flash based Halo 2 Random Fury site, featuring profiles and such of all the members, all the map strategies and tactics, any guides or FAQs that have been written, I’m also looking to learn website design at a local college in September, which will be free thanks to me claiming Jobseekers Allowance.

Stab the guy! Stab him in the head!

This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. Last night at around 2-3 am, while I was playing some Halo 2 with the one and only, a guy was stabbed on the pavement opposite my house. I didn't hear anything, having a headset on and all, but Jane came down and told me all about…

Things are looking up

This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. I'm slowly learning the intricacies of XML to take advantage of Halo 2 stats, might be starting a web design course in September, that'd be cool, get me on the right track. Anti-depressants still not kicked in though, and I think I'm coming down with a cold.
