BigTeamBattle.net vs MLG Pros
Last night, a bunch of MLG pros (mostly used to playing 4v4 games with MLG rules) joined up and played against the number one-rated BigTeamBattles.net team ‘Wake Up’ – watching the carnage is fascinating. Carbon’s Assault streamed it last night, and you can watch his archived footage starting around 4 hours into this video. The first game (Slayer on Utopie) will show you how the best Banshee flyer in the game, coupled with a team that knows the map inside and out, can DESTROY a team of some of the best shooters in Reach. (It illustrated how important knowledge of the maps can be – and how hard it is to switch between Bloom/No-Bloom settings on the fly.) Thanks to CyReN, who posted relevant links at HaloCouncil, along with an interview with the pros after the fact.(Louis Wu 20:27:54 UTC)

Please Enter your Date of Birth
From MythicTyrant:With Halo 4 on the way, I thought it’d be awesome to revisit some of the Halo: Reach achievements for those of you who want to nab them all before the next game is released. This video features five achievements which can be obtained in Campaign, and yes, I’m playing on Legendary. The achievements are:
1) Two Corpses in One Grave
2) Banshees, Fast and Low
3) Lucky Me
4) If They Came to Hear Me Beg
5) Wake Up, Buttercup
If you can think of any other Campaign or Firefight achievements you’d like me to do (no, I’m not going to spend another hour hitting the one million mark in Firefight!), let me know!
