Halo 2 World Tourney Finals - Aussie Champ's View

Posted by timothy on from the wear-it-proudly dept.

Remorhaz writes "Some of you may be aware that the finals of the Worldwide Halo 2 tourney over Xbox Live was held on Friday night (10th June) with the 24 Xbox Live Region winners duking it out for ultimate glory. I was there with Cabel (the Australian representative), his brother and Pidge from Microsoft Australia to play the finals - Cabel made it to the grand final round - but didn't take first place unfortunately (congrats to King Tuur from the Netherlands) - but he's done us Aussies extremely proud :) Here's Remorhaz' "writeup of an insider's view of Australia's Halo 2 representative - Cabel's progress to the finals and the night's events at Australian Microsoft HQ."

    I had this great idea for a glove-type of controller. It would allow for quicker movement (especially with caffeine).

    It's so bad.

  2. Math is hard, so are console games.. by sinner0423 · · Score: 3, Funny

    Playing a first person shooter with a joystick is analogous to driving a car with your buttcheeks.

    I've played PC games for over half my life and I still can't grasp controlling a FPS on a console. I'm sure any awards that were given out were well deserved.

    Yeah, but you would end up bunny hopping around like a maniac, and everyone would know what you were doing, you sick puppy!

    Seriously.
