Just got back from another Halo lan party. Four XBoxes and TVs.. about a dozen people. This one had some really good moments. Bit of an email I just sent off:
After about five hours it was down to four of us so we declared one final match on a big ice level to 25 kills. This one was crazy intense. I had an exact routine down for where to go to get certain guns. Then I had exact routes on where to patrol to kill people. If I didn't spawn near my weapons dump, I had sneaky routes to get there. Each kill everyone got was earned. It was neck and neck throughout, but I got an early lead with a Killing Spree five kills and zero deaths. I was a kicking ass with the sniper rifle, but I wasn't camping and sniping. I was constantly on the move. I'd pull out the sniper, zoom and scan for targets, then I'd immediately switch to the shotgun and spin around looking for anyone sneaking up on me. Everyone was really into it. After about 45 minutes to an hour, we were at 19 kills, 22 kills and I was tied with someone at 24. I died and spawned far from my guns. Ran across someone and had a shot to win it, but he got me. Thirty seconds later the other guy got the final kill. I was visibly shaking after the match from all the adrenaline. I'm all hyper now. Can't wait to do eight XBox TimeSplitters linkup next month
