Me and my friend continued our Halo Legendary Difficulty "project". Now that Halo 2 is done, we're making lightning speed on Halo 3. We've gone from almost half a year for the entirety of Halo 2, too 3 more levels left of Halo 3. I also just found out that Halo 3 has 4 player multiplayer, so i'll have to recruit a few extra friends for that.

One particular spot we struggled on a bit today was this Scarab.

We couldn't get it's legs to drop for some reason no matter how hard we hit it. So i grabbed a choppper and ramped it over the top of the thing and hopped out midair to land on it midway through like something out of an Action Movie. I also couldn't use any special tools to get up because i was saving the Grav Lift for a skull later in the level. It was a fun and epic moment. It always seems like something happens in this area, as when me and my friend went through this area on a normal mode playthrough, my Tank i was driving just tripped out and started spinning like a beyblade and sent me flying off the edge. I was laughing too hard too be upset about a bug like that.

There was also this section, which you need to take a stair case to get down from to a lower level. With the opening cutscene with how far Chief falls and how he doesn't seem to take fall damage in this game, i though "well, i bet i could probably survive the fall". Turns out, chief cannot survive that fall. His plot armor must be cutscene only sadly.

Me and my friend have been following a quota of 2 levels a day due to time constraints, tomorrow we talked about doing 3 though just to finish up Halo 3. I'm excited to get to 4 though and finish up reach. Reach i've heard good things about, and though from what i understand 4 isn't very popular, i'm excited to give it an earnest try.
