yeah i beat tartarus finally the other week. brutes on legendary are fucking crazy. the level where the parasite sends master chief right into that throne room meeting thing and you have to immediately fight shitloads of brutes with no weapons is just fucking suicide. so much fun.
but now i don't play single player at all... add me as a friend or something mop, i'll get you into my clan and train you to be a pro. give me a shotgun and call it a day.
I'm having alot of fun with the dual magnums. Sticking someone from 100 feet away has also provided ample laughs and giggles. Recently though, I've noticed an influx of pubescent Cro-Mags yelling into the headset I guess that's the nature of online gaming.
After playing Halo 2, I noticed I had near godlike aim in Halflife 2. It's safe to assume the Xbox controller makes you that much better when you switch back to the mouse.
