The Matchmaking update is awesome. I hope Bungie releases one from time to time. With this one, you play a lot of different stuff a lot more often. No more repeats all of the time. So far, I've played quite a few different variants such as...Swords, Phantoms, Fiesta stuff like that.

Man, Kurt (DizzleGCH) and I went on a rampage last night. In one round of Capture The Flag Fast at Ivory Tower, I had 18 kills and 0 deaths. That's an 18 kill killing spree, when the game ended. And no freaking deaths.
Kurt had 15 kills and 4 deaths. Kurt also had both of our scores, and I defended him the whole way. No one touched him.
The other two guys on our team didn't really do much. Around 5 kills a piece. But I tell you what. They couldn't handle just me and Kurt alone. It was complete domination.

Kind of like me, I just keep shooting and shooting until no lead left in my little black angel of death (namely, my gun).

I've heard a rumor that Bungie may reset the Halo 2 Xbox Live stats tonight for the New Year. Along with resetting the stats, they are monitoring cheaters, and people who exploit glitches. This is why they are resetting the stats...To level the playing field and rid the game of cheaters.
I've also heard the possibility of three new Halo 2 maps being released tonight for New Year's, to celebrate...Well, "new maps" for Halo 2. They are...
Hang Em High Sidewinder Prisoner
I can't confirm anything, but if I hear anything more concrete, then I'll let you guys know. I'll be on Xbox Live playing tonight anyways, so come join me for some New Year's Halo 2!

Did anybody notice the sign by the ocean at Zanzibar is different? Instead of no swimming it says something like shark petting. I only noticed it while playing xbox live though. Weird. One of my cousins is saying stats for the Rumble Pit are reset too. Though i guess Frankie posted somewhere and said its a glitch that will be fixed soon.

It says that shark petting thing on mine. Why would it change though? Unless there was an auto update again, there is no way it could have changed by itself.

The latest Electronic Gaming Monthly features an interview with Bungie team members Frankie O'Connor, Brian Jarrard, and Max Hoberman. In the interview, they state that they had updated versions of Hang Em' High, and Wizard from Halo: Combat Evolved, running on the Halo 2 engine, but they didn't make the cut. But they did mention that they cut them because they knew they'd be doing downloadable content after Halo 2 was released...
So the question is posed...Will Hang Em' High and Wizard be two new maps released for Halo 2? It seems very possible to me.

One map is almost going to be released called "Trench" (Hang 'em High?) Also they have banned cheaters by the thousands (!!) today yeah! bungie.net/News/TopStory.aspx?story=weeklywhatsjan14"Chimps ask, I just got banned from Xbox Live, WHY!? Good. Most likely because you were doing one of the following: Cheating, network-exploiting, cursing, swearing, threatening or abusing other players. The points below cover most of the stuff Xbox Live will ban or suspend people for and frankly, you know who you are. If you've been suspended temporarily, with any luck, you might think twice about cheating again. Today, we are dropping the ban hammer on a significant number of cheaters. That number is thousands, not dozens or hundreds. Some of them will receive a short suspension of their service; others will be advised of more serious measures. In every instance, the Xbox Live team has gone to great lengths to prove, where possible, severe terms of use violations. If you have been banned, you have not been banned for anything minor, like flag bouncing, or glitch-grabbing an object. If you've been banned or suspended, there's a very good chance you know what you were doing was wrong and that you did it multiple times." "Simone asks, Any news on Downloadable Content? Nothing to report right now. All I can tell you is that a lot of excited screaming and yelling is coming from the multiplayer test lab. And let me leave you with a single word that you may in future come to use: "Trench."

Just had another one of those games, where I completely dominated. I had 26 kills, 2 deaths, and 15 headshots. I had a killing spree of 22 kills...That is 22 kills in a row, without being killed once. Couldn't believe it. On top of that, I had 17 medals...And on top of that, I just by myself, had more kills than their entire team. And on top of that, check out the Player Vs Player...All four of them, were killed the most by...Me. Complete domination on my part Here's the link to the stats and game viewer www.bungie.net/Stats/GameStats.aspx?panel=stats&gameid=66390115&player=RyoGCH
