    No, he's right. Bungie recently announced Mythic difficulty is legendary with all skulls. If you play co-op, you're not allowed to have deaths at the end for it to count. Anyone who can do it gets recon.

    I'm not even going to try. Before my Xbox got trashed, I was running through with just the iron skull on legendary. That alone is harder than the legendary run I completed with seven or eight different skulls. Snipers are the bane of your existence. If it gets even your little toe, you're a dead Spartan.

    The toe is where his mother held him as she dipped 117 in a vat of immortality.

    And yeah, as Ouch! said. Mythic difficulty, not Mythic skull.

    I think the most disheartening thing to ever happen to me in a video game was taking a sniper to the face at the end of Sierra 117 with the iron skull. I spent weeks trying on and off to get to the part where you have to rescue Johnson from the brutes, and I got sniped while I was taking out one of the other snipers.

    I'm now stuck on Tsavo Highway. I got careless at the end and took a little too much rape to the face.

    Hey Quin, if you've completed Legendary solo, try with this set-up: Tough Luck, Catch, Fog, Famine, Thunderstorm, and Cowbell. Famine is the most brutal of that bunch, but it's manageable.

    I am getting this game when it hits. I am down for playing some fire fight. I kind of dropped off of Halo 3 online since I never bought any of the map packs but I guess ODST solves that problem for me as well.

    Legendary Solo isn't that hard either. Mythic sounds epicily awesome though. Legedary with all skulls on. I could totally shoot the hell out of all the little grunts and party till its 1999 =D

    I always play with Catch and Cowbell anyway. Means I can spam grenades! xD

    And hell no am I throwing freaking Thunderstorm on. Although the hardest parts of the game are easy with patience, Thunderstorm would totally rape me for the "easier" parts where you just have millions of standard guys. I'm awesome, but I ain't that awesome haha.

    Also, which part of Tsavo Highway?

    I may get ODST, I'm not sure. I've personally grown tired of the Halo franchise as of late. If the game is very well received and everyone sings it's praises, then yeah I'll probably purchase it. If not, however, it's a pass for me.

    What a lot of people seem to forget is that, no matter how awesome it may be, that trailer does not reflect upon the actual game itself aside from storyline. It's purely live action, there is no gameplay being shown whatsoever. We have been shown gameplay and some have had the chance to try it out, but what I'm seeing a lot is people saying things like "Well I wasn't going to bother with it before, but after seeing this trailer it's a definite buy!", which I don't really understand.

    That being said, the trailer is absolutely wicked.

    Everything I've seen of the game makes it look like it's going to be great. I imagine the story will be less "save the galaxy" than the actual Halo, and more "save you and your mates asses". I think it'll make a nice change from the usual Master Chief Elbow Dropping a Brute from a 300 feet drop. I'm hoping it'll all feel more panicky and scary than the MC Halo games, because you won't be able to beat a pair of Hunters to death with your bare fists this time, and if you get ambushed, you're not gonna be able to quickly leap to safety.

    Anyway, yeah. I don't understand why people would want to buy the game from this advert though. Don't get me wrong, it's freaking awesome. Hungarian and Welsh? Nice. But it shows almost nothing of the actual game. Like I said, I'm hoping that the reason the advert is all rushed, heavy breathing and panicky is because that's what'll it'll be like in the game.

    The preview in Hyper Magazine coupled with the trailer has me pretty much sold. I'm going to appreciate having all those maps available too, for when I finally actually get decent internet to play online. Goddamn Australia

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.

    Boy, you've got no imagination. And it's obvious that I was referring to the fact that the Chief can survive massive drops and can beat Brutes to death with his pinky knuckle. ODSTs get, like, sprained ankles and stuff all the time, which I'm looking forward to.

    There's gonna be health packs and I get the feeling I am going to be smurfing over my friends to acquire them.
