Halo has its own niche that it does very well, and downplays the console limitations and emphasizes teamwork and awareness. I just don't see it on BO at all. For all the headaches PCs seem to give MLG, the PC players still play a better competitive game than the PS3 players do. quake is an amazing 1v1 game, but an extremely poor team game halo is the opposite, amazing team game but extremely poor for 1v1 you actually move quite fast in halo, it's just the maps are very large with many wide open spaces without delving into a huge wall of text, the two main reasons that halo is better for teams is the energy shield mechanic gives means that not dying is more important than getting kills, and a result strong teamwork is more important than going rambo. second, the spawns in halo are deterministic (which makes your team's formation on the map extremely important) whereas quake spawns are randomized. the ability to control spawns adds an entire layer of depth on top of the weapon/powerup control strategy that dominates quake, turning teamplay into a slow motion chessmatch where every single kill is extremely important | ||

If so, are you going to be on JP's channel or the MLG channel? Also, will it be in it's normal time slot? | ||
