Today's game is some Halo MCC. I know this features a lot, but after finishing up The Last of Us i thought it'd be appropriate to kick back and relax with friends while playing some MCC Social Games. We're making plans to go through the Halo 3 & 4 Campaign on 4 player Co-Op at some point which will be fun, but we're waiting on one friend to finish up Halo 2's Campaign first.

We did about 5 matches today, and two of them i got screenshots from. The first was Halo Reach Headhunters, which was a blast. I don't think i've played this much in Social Games so it was fun to experience it. My team came close with around 45:50 points, but we ultimately lost.

I did manage to get a super satisfying kill be lobbing a good grenade at all 4 enemies who were clustered together, but i didn't get to collect it as their grenade took me out soon after. My teammates collected all the skulls luckily though.

I've come up with my favorite strategy using my favorite reach power up, and that's the Armor Lock. I had a lot of Good Luck using it in this game mode because if i got pinned down i could use it to hold on for just a bit longer until help got there. It saved me a few times. From what i understand armor lock isn't too popular, but fuck it's satisfying to use. Especially with the EMP blast if you use it all the way. I even caught the enemy team by surprise a few times with it because i guess they forgot about it knocking out shields.

We also did One Bomb in Reach which was a blast (pardon the pun). We lost, but fuck it was fun grabbing the bomb and rushing it. I got one score in before we lost and it was a fun time. The Map i'm a bit iffy on because i feel like it gives too much leverage too power weapons so once a team grabs them it's hard to win, but that's just my meta gaming opinion. I still had an awesome time playing it even though our asses were completely handed too us.
