H3 Hotness!

I was terrified that I would suck at this game.  Now I'm not scared, but I still suck. 

But there a few moments when the light shines down and the actual ability/dumb luck shows up, and I get to look like the shiny turd in the pile!  At least in my own eyes...

One of the coolest things that was ever brought to the online arena was the statistics of the games.  Bungie really kicked some ass with that little service.  My son's first online win is still on our fridge where I printed it out.  In the days before achievements, this was may favorite way of watching my improvement/slide into crappiness.  With the advent of H3 Beta HappyFunTime, I'm right back at it. 

I'll preface- first game, we had two cakeeater/fatkids/Timmies on the other squad.  I ran into the busted bunker on High Ground to catch Smoke and Lb clobbering the crap out of a Timmie teammate who was trying to drive a Mongoose over them.  Indoors.  Smart, huh?  So I chucked in a few frags and carnage ensued.  My first H3 triple kill!

When the dust settled, Smoke had been booted for three betrayals and we were all laughing.  I told the story, but we got into the next game so fast I couldn't save the film.  A fluke, right?  Couldn't get another triple to save my life.

Then I did it again! w00t!

Then the wheels fell off the wagon and I went back to sucking.  But it was good for a little while! 

Be warned, this game is going to eat you alive!
