Let's see, how to do this… I think I'll end on a positive note, but that means starting here:

I don't like Halo 3 multiplayer. I'd even rather play Halo 4!

Meh. I was going to list off all the reasons, but I hate being negative in general and doubly so when playing with DBO, so let's move on to the fun shall we?

Best game: Neutral bomb on Valhalla. It felt like a big mapped Halo game should. A back and forth struggle that could go on and on like good ole flag at home to score Blood Gulch in Halo 1. My team was pinned for quite a while, had some pretty funny failed attempts at getting to bomb away from our side, but we also played some good defense and stuck it out long enough to break free and score.

Best kill: Flipping the Warthog on Standoff near the missile silo and getting the double kill out of it. I pretty sure Avateur was taunting me at the time (when wasn't he! :P) which made it all the more fun. Close second was Spikenading Avateur on Zanzibar or whatever it's called.

In general I enjoyed killing Avateur whenever I could because of the taunting, and pretty much feared Snipe every time he was on the other team. Despite my dislike of Halo 3's gameplay I did enjoy revisiting all the old maps. Valhalla looks so much better without 343's washed out overly bright sunshine and The Pit has always been one of my favorites. Sticking it out for the win during the laggy game of doom was fun even if I did give up the rocket launcher.

But the best part by far is getting to play with yous guys. I did myself a disservice and played an hour of Halo 3 to warm up, and it's night and day playing with randoms and playing with friends. I may have sucked and died way too much, and been the weakest link, but getting to play with the community made it more than worth it! I totally look forward to whatever we do next! :)
