Halo Reach - Wasn't What You'd Expect

Halo Reach is game that really is going to change the Halo History forever, considering the fact that it's different, and with all brand new amazing features. I have decided to bring up something that "You'd not expect." A little comparison from Halo 1, 2, 3 and now REACH. Even though we don't have all the lastest updates from REACH, we have enough to write this topic.

I'm going to compare Halo Reach Elites to the Spartans.


As you can see in that picture above, the Elites are stronger, more powerful and taller. Bungie reports that Elites really are much more faster than Spartans as well. You can see that if you decided to be an Elite in Halo 3, than you made the right choice!



Here is a picture of Halo 2 Elites, and as you can see that these are much smaller than the Spartans in Halo 2 and even in Halo 3. Ah yes, good ol' Halo 2 memories. Remember the first no-scope you made with a sniper? Good times...


All of us know that you never fought Halo 3 elites, so I am kinda pissed, considering that I am a huge Elite fan from Bungie. It's really not worth posting a picture here for this reason. But, you do know that Elites in Halo 3 we're the backbone in the Multiplayer experience and we're awesome to play as for that reason. Who doesn't love that Under-dog?

Gone Forever - Dust In The Wind

As all of us know by now, Halo 2 has been taken offline. You, my reader, know that I a obsessed with Halo 2, and always will be. Even though Halo 2 is offline, it's never time to forget these special memories that we will have with Halo 2. Some have different and better memories. Although, many share the same. "It was a kick ass game, and will go down in memory of us all!" Claimed a Halo 2 fan poster on the Bungie forums.

Here is a Youtube video that I always watch. It's a great and sad video and really sums up the feeling I have for Halo 2. The song choice was purely amazing. How sad that Microsoft had to do this to us.

Halo 2 - Our past, the present, the future

All of us Xbox Gamers should know by now that all original Xbox games have been taken offline. If you are reading this, and didn't have a clue, then that's really a shame because you missed a hell of a great time. Halo 2 is a definite memorable game that has many memories, moments and great time for just about anyone who has played the game. I for one, have many memories with this game. When I was little I used to play it all the time. When I had no choice to get rid of my Xbox v1, I also had to give up Halo 2. Sad days, is it not? Todays a even more sad day. Xbox Live is down for all original xbox games, and that's final.

Theres Hope...
According to Major Nelson, Microsoft is have a press conference soon and might have a little talk about something very important. Halo 2 is a great game, and it was a shame to see it go, indeed. That's what the press might be about, but I could be wrong. 15 Hours after shutdown, people continued to play XBL for Halo 2. These fans are dedicated, are they not? Thats what Microsoft want to see. Maybe they might bring it back? Make is available in Games on Demand for every and available for anyone! This could be the best day in Xbox History.

Halo 2 was a great game and I got to witness the shutdown.
Here is a video in remembrance of Halo 2 and its memories. Such a loss.

End of a era - The New Age



We're still kinda going crazy how Halo 2 is close to the end. It's very disappointing, but the good news is, that we'll be able to play with Bungie staff on April 14th. Everyone will leave what they have left with Halo 2 and leave the memories. At least we'll be able to remember how fun it was playing Xbox Live and such. This is a video that I found recently and just started feeling depressed. "Is it really going to leave?" I wonder.

Still, we have XBC but like I said in past posts, is it worth it?

The End Is Near

Each day is getting closer and closer to April 15th which is going to be a sad day for all Halo 2 fans around the world who like Matchmaking. Yes, indeed but we have discovered a new program called Xbox-connect which allows you to pretty much access XBOX live from your computer for about 14.99$ Before we continue, we would like you to keep in mind that we are no part of advertising their new program.

So about this XBC; the program basically requires a computer, Xbox and Ethernet cable. Im not sure if missing anything, but please comment below if we are missing something. It has little cost for such a great value, only 14.99 (so we believe) and it's great for all the Halo 2 players. We have a few things to say. Halo 2 is a great game, most of us know that the game is damn near dead in some matchmaking playlists and I wonder how much more dead it will be with XBC. You might be lucky if you can get a full game, so is it really worth it?

XBC is not the only solution. People are talking on the Bungie forums, discussing about getting Halo 2 for PC. If you are not informed, Halo 2 is only going to be unavailable to the XBOX and XBOX360 (unless you have XBC.) Is PC the best decision? Hacks, lagers, control types, all really make the game terrible. They fill the game and make it very unpleasant for most gamers. Don't forget about all those weird floor glitches and severe graphic issues. Is it really worth it?

As you can see our point, Halo 2 is coming to a end and their is just about nothing we can do to keep it alive. It's going to be gone forever and that's that. I suggest that we all let it die with all of our good memories. The game was great but it's not the end of the world. We still have Halo CE, Halo REACH coming out and Halo 3... Not much said... So are we going to let it die? That's your choice. My choice has already been made. Im letting it die with great memories!

The New Named - Monthly Update

Getting along some information for the Monthly Update, we have some important news for all who are interested in joining the clan and would like to send us messages. "The New Named" serves it's title, simply because the member of the clan Wepofate has changed his gamertag. He will now go by Suicidal Snip3. Changing your gamertag is something that can be bad, if we don't let you know about it. That's why we are letting you know it from us. That is not all about Changing Gamertags. The man behind the clan who we knew as Relromonster will be changing his name as well. Not sure when, or what to but at least you have the idea of what might happen in the near future as well.

It's April 1st, 2010 and it's getting closer each day to the closing date of all original Xbox games. I am still in shock of how they could do this to us, because of Halo 2. Halo 2 had the best Matchmaking in my eyes, and I needed to play it more. I was wondering if their was something that we could do to maybe perhaps, CONVINCE Microsoft to not close this forever. Maybe if we send a ton of emails to Microsoft explaining the sorrow?
Heres Microsoft Gaming email: GUR@microsoft.com
Let them know how you feel about Halo 2.

As you have already noticed, I have put together a logo, and put it on our website, as well as here on the blog! I will be creating new logos for the website before I release them here to the blog, so if you would like to check it out here's the link: www.OverlordsMLG.webs.com As far as the logos for the website are going, it's been fun creating them. You should be seeing some new pages coming in but we're running low on ideas. Send us a email with ideas here: Overlords.MLG@gmail.com

That is all for now reader.

Sincerely, Ret

Halo 2 - Sharing Memories

In case you haven't heard; all xbox v1 games will no longer have Xbox Live for some strange reason, and unknown to the public. I had just purchased Halo 2 AGAIN Because I was real sad that they are deciding to do this to all our Halo fans out their. This is real sad, and I was thinking that our clan "the Overlords" could have everyone join us in playing Halo 2 Matchmaking from now until April 15th. The sad day for closing original xbox v1 games and taking out XBL.

If you are interested in joining us, you do not have to join the clan, we just would like some people to join in and have some fun on Halo 2 before it's too late. However, if you have a original xbox v1 then it won't be possible to play with us. You must have a xbox 360.
