A Carrot. I rarely play Halo 2 anymore as in my opinion it sucks and I hate it. I do love to play NCAA 06 though.

I guess they just can't take being beaten 50-4 when I am on my own team fighting 4 other people.
If I prayed, it would be for cable. Is that sad?
Now, I dont want to seem like a prick or a jerk but your friends must not be able to play dead if you beat them that bad 4v1. I mean in Halo 2 no one person can take on 4 decent people at once (yes killtacular but rather rare) because of the lack of skill involved in killing someone. In Halo 1 yes it was possible but in this case it no longer is. I've played alot of Halo and once you start to play on xbox live you better be ready to be stomped because there are some good players out there.
I'm not trying to say that I'm great just saying what i believe. Who knows though you may be unstoppable, but i REALLY doubt it.

Thanks for your concern, but I know how Live is. I've played plenty before. I can keep up with level 35 legit players.
My friends however, 2 are pretty ****ed good, another is a little above decent, and the fourth is alright. I'm not unstoppable, but my best game against them is 50-4 TS.
I agree that it doesn't take much skill to kill someone because of the aim-assist, but do you know how hard it is to control all the power weapons on a larger map by yourself? Sure on Halo 1 if you had an external timer to help with the RL AC and OS spawns, you could... But with the possession rules in Halo 2, it can get more complicated with that many enemies.
You have to know the positions to strike from, what combos to counter each weapon and what to use in case the enemy actually acquires a Power weapon, and where you can retreat to and get to the counter as soon as possible. It's all strategical thinking and knowing the level.

That's cool, I was just stating what I believed from previous expierences. If it came off to you that I was calling you a liar I was not. Anyhow if i ever get back into Halo 2 (DOUBT IT) or another FPS we can play together good competition is always good.

I took no offense, I've had plenty of people to doubt me. It's not really anything new. I always answer in a proper, educated tone so maybe you thought I was being defensive. I am one of the most level-headed people you'll ever talk to. I am never excited, depressed, angry, happy, or sad.
I'll have my gamertag friday when cebridge hooks me up.
I think xbox live is $50 a year, last I heard.

Head to Head system link is the best test of skill. It is one on one, with no bridging, no lagging, no screen-watching, no modding, and no host advantage.
Rumple pit is an awful way to show your skill, it's a mess. You can steal everyone's kills by camping with a BR and wait for their shields to go down, and easily get a higher score than someone who is playing 'in the pit'.
