Updating, again!

I haven´t stepped into darkness and seclusion yet, so here I am again to offer you some not-so-fresh but juicy news.

ODST Legnd
First, I completed Halo ODST on Legendary. Man, what a night. Some points where I tought "this is gonna be hell" were easy as pie. But others that looked easy were... hell. But I must admit it wasn´t so hard, compared to what I feared (Noob Combo FTW). So finally I can play as Dare!!

Not only that I like seeing chicks killing dozens of Covies, but also I love her Recon Armor.

The Fall of Reach:
A trailer of the upcoming Halo: Reach bungie title has been on the net for quite a few days now. So if you haven´t seen it, now its your time to do so.



Seems nice, huh? Well, maybe it isn´t as epic as the ones we were used to regarding Halo (although you have to admit that the Covenant Cruiser looks pretty epic and... scary) we just see a Spartan squad with presumably MJOLNIR Mark IV armor and a new addition to the squad. A lone survivor of "Pegasi" which, we pressume, its also a Spartan.

First, the speculation!
This is my blog, and I love to speculate regarding the Halo Universe. And about Reach and the trailer, there´s plenty to think about. We have a Spartan team, nicknamed "Noble". We´ll, the main Spartan force was commanded by Frederick, the Blue Leader. And descended on a Pelican to protect the MAC Stations generators, which were on the surface of the planet and also were very vulnerable to Covenant ground units. (Read Halo: The Fall of Reach and Halo: First Strike to know more) So what´s with this team? Are they even Spartan-II? I guess so, but I can only guess.

Regarding the Lone survivor of Pegasi. He may come from Pegasi Delta, a small planet were the Covenant held a colony and a refuelling station. 300 Spartan-III were sent to assault the colony in Operation TORPEDO. Only two survived: Tom B-292 and Lucy B-091. So if our lonewolf is a survivor from Pegasi, he/she must be either Tom or Lucy. Or he/she might even be another Spartan-III survivor, you know, when everything goes to hell in a military operation its hard to tell how many of your friends are dead, mortally wounded or just MIA

But of course, Pegasi might mean anything else and non-related. Thats the sad part of speculation

Onto the trailer itself:
Look at that graphics, aren´t they great for a CGI trailer? Think again, because Bungie stated they were INGAME Graphics. Wow, thats just amazing, isn´t it? I can´t wait to see the finished product. Oh, and the Elites are back......

The OD(ST)yssey II

Back from the desperate-searching-for-money mission! It was a success, I managed to get 25 euros, so that makes it only 15 euros left before I can say "Okay, here´s all the money I need to get Halo3 ODST" Now, I don´t know how I am going to get those 15, but I guess it´ll be easier than getting 25 :P

Not much in the way of news today, haven´t checked Bungie.net or anything Halo-related. But I solved an old connection problem with my 360, thats a success. Then spent hours playing Bioshock.

I had to admit something, and then make a promise. I haven´t completed Halo 3 campaign on Legendary. That wasn´t a big concern, not after having the floor wiped with my shinny spartan ass about then thousands of times in Tsavo Higway level (near the marine´s outpost that gets attacked by a Wraith) I´m a quickly frustrating-perilously enraging guy, so when that kind of things happen I just sit back, try to relax, and shut the game before I start going berserk. But not this time, I have to do it. The reason? I was comparing games with some friends and the amount of them that have the "Game Completed in Legendary" achievement is unacceptable, mostly because every single one of them has then his own ass beaten by myself while playing online. WHY? WHY, Oh, ironic Haloverse deities! Why people that is easily beaten by me can beat the Legendary Campaign??

You will be mine, Legendary, you will be mine...

After pondering the question for a while I reached the only acceptable conclusion, they have tried, died, tried harder, died harder and finally succeeded. So I will relax, sit back and try again and again until the little "Game Completed in Legendary" thingy pops in front of my eyes flooded with tears. It´ll help to pass the remaining days to Halo ODST.

Oh, BTW... that´s a promise
