I am trying to figure out what you guys see in Halo.  Having not played Halo except once a couple years ago I had no clue what was going on tonight. 

I thought Halo was a run 'n gun fps.  It is SLOW.  GRAW and R6 have a much faster pace and I think those are slow.  I was expecting fast paced action like ut especially after seeing some of the videos on youtube.
How do the menus work?  Can I just start a game with a friend to learn the controls?
Why do the graphics look like ut2k4 on a pc from two years ago?

I was playing Crackdown with godWHYme last night. In the middle of the game we lost voice communications and I couldn't send anyone messages. When I try to send a message it says to to change some privacy settings. I fire up xbox.com and all of the options in privacy settings were set to blocked. This was pretty confusing. I set them all to everyone but that didn't save. I was getting frustrated. Then an answer came in my inbox. My gold subscription expired. Doh!

That's weird. I'm surprised it didn't just kick me off of multiplayer.

I'm starting something new in my blog.  Caption this photo borrowed from xbox.com.



I will start it off with
"Timmy, I'd like you to meet your new mail order mom."

BOOOOOOO.  I put in Forza 1 to get ready for the next version.  The game save is tied to the console!!!  i've lost all my progress.

I think I will get one of those usb hdd adaptors and try to use a hack.  I read there are ways to strip the console id off the saves.

Finally, warm weather.  Took the motorcycle to work :)
