Holy crap you got a perfection!!! I just watched the first and last few minutes. I take back my you were good comment. You were amazing. I gave up on the idea of me ever getting a perfection a long time ago. I wanted that achievement so bad though.
I'm not much of an achievement hunter, but that one is the one I'm proud of.
You shoudl be. If one of those stupid guys on the other team had used their shotgun a half second earlier, you would have died at least once. Well done.

I don't like ANY of those modes. I find Halo's weapon variety to be pretty weak (a lot of the reason why I've moved on to other games), why cripple it down to just one or two weapons?

Of the list: Team Duals. Most variety, less battle rifle. Good time to see people trying to adjust to the loss of their favorite weapons.

Least favorite on that list: Team SWAT. Really, if team SWAT is your thing, go play another game. Pick up Call of Duty or something. It'll probably be right up your alley if twitchy gameplay is what you're about. I like Call of Duty's fast-paced gameplay, and frankly if I am playing Halo with a friend and the gametype turns to Team SWAT, I feel like I'm playing a really bad version of COD.

I'm gonna go ahead and say Griffball. When I hear that the weekend event is a Griffball playlist i'm pretty much stuck on halo 3 until it's over. Otherwise I have to admit I don't go on halo much anymore, I've just moved onto otherthings.

everything that doesn't spwan us with BR's is awesome in this game.

because that gun is better than too many other guns, making most of them almost pointless unless your aim with said BR is bad, and the enemy's aswell.
but that's not likely.
Luckily a lot of people can't use it, and if you know what you're doing, you can still kill them. Don't hate on the BR, it's not as invincible as you think.
5shot is pretty damn easy, I'm nowhere near a 'pro' player because i don't take it seriously, hell, its flat out better and easier to than most non-power weapons, and almost better than an average or weaker sniper.
i dunno, trueskill system has put me against plenty of people whom are decent enough with it to make things not so fun.
I hate on it because it discourages me to use the other weapons in the game, unless I don't want to try to win.
plus burst fire is for n00b guns, see COD's M16.

I'm a big fan of Team Swat. It gets frustrating at times, but it's proably the most addicting game mode in my opinon.

Well they're changing it to single shot for Reach in the DMR. But I don't know how firing modes automatically label a gun "n00b"-ish, I generally keep that title for area of effect weapons such as the splazer, rocket launcher, and brute shot. Not saying those are bad weapons; they just take less focus to handle and are inherently easier to kill with.

Nice to know that the escapist has a following, also the by far best thing i've heard so far about Reach is that their is the announcer saying "griffball" (ok not really the best thing, but still!)

We should get our own escapist grifball league going, you know because were awesome and all that.

I wouldn't mind that or a XBL community playdate.

I'm sure it would be easy enough to organise, the beauty of griffball is that connection doesn't matter as much as it does with the other game types. Also, we get to have teams and crush our opposition :D

Oh god, not shotty snipers. I'm glad that I never see that mode anymore, as the Sniper Rifle is boring, and the shotgun sucks.

Team BR's all the way.

True. So very true. We should organize something like that.
