    Last week, for our Friday Caption Fun festivities, you provided quips for an image featuring a rather puzzling scene. Here are the top captions you left for that particular image!

    Halo: Reach Screenshot

     

    “I knew letting Emile control the RC warthog was a bad idea.” –VRTX Raptor
    “I swear I went through that interdimensional portal with my Warthog….” –Xandercore
    “And that is why Bob was no longer allowed to drive any UNSC Vehicles.” –StarlitGiraffe
    “I wondered what it would be like to gun a Warthog upside down… then it hit me.” –SlashedTortoise
    “Wonder if he’ll notice I fell out.” –FrizzDizz
    “It’s good the Ghost of Lockout found a new living after Halo 2.” –W1ltz
    “Boom! Headshot.” –Necropaxx
    “Dude, THERE’S my car!” –DarkEdge16
    “Reach is gonna fall? Yeah right… when Warthogs fly.” –Coux73



    Now that we’ve wrapped up that picture, let’s start a new one. Up for your captioning pleasure this week is an image featuring a sniper-in-a-box. Soak in the screenshot, then leave your witty and relevant quip in a comment. Off you go!

    The team that brought you Halo 2 Tricks, Halo 3 Tricks, and Halo: Reach Tricks present you with Halo: Anniversary Tricks with a new crew of trickers ready to please.

    In this episode, we show you how to wiggle your way through a closed door with a Ghost on Assault on the Control Room. When doing this trick, you will be able to hang out with the Covenant, but they won’t attack you.

    The Running Riot Interviews Slightly Live



    From Kete:

    These posts before the live broadcast are meant as an intro to the next guest. Jessica Shea doesn’t need an introduction because anyone reading this knows who she is: A beloved member of the Halo community who landed a dream job at 343 Industries. Before that job you only knew her as bs angel, so it’s only fitting for her second appearance as a guest on TRR that we call her Jessica.

    We get started tomorrow night, 3/30, with the Green Room at 9:15pm ET. Interview at 9:30. Gonna try to keep it clean, but I doubt it.

    bs angel note: It was kinda sorta weird publishing this. Just sayin’.
