Time for me to review Bungie Faviorites...
Maps:
Prototype - (3/10) - First thing I noticed: It's a giant ****ing fence box. It's annoying. It's bumpy. There is absolutely no interlocking. This map actually proved a bit of a challenge to get out of. That is, until I found the Brute Shot. Time it took me to get out of the map: 30~45 seconds. Weapon placement's horrible. There's a ****ing hallway with turrets on either side facing each other.
Job Site - (4/10) - Ske7ch was able to throw random crap around and make a map. You were not. The only thing I liked about this map was the crane thing. Other than that, it looked like random crap thrown around. And the pallets instantly respawn? Fail. Two snipers? Double fail. An overshield and camo? Triple fail. A shotgun and a sword? Overfail.
DIG IN! - (3/10) - The bunker was bumpy as hell. And it has a sniper plus a rocket launcher, each at 60 second respawns. WTF? Why? The attacker's base, two ghosts, 60 second respawns. WHY? Again, WHY? That just scrams of fail. Then you add Spike Grenades AND Plasma Grenades, and throw ****ing Carbines EVERYWHERE at the attackers base. Take a step, oop! Carbine! Take another step, oop! Carbine! The shotgun spot is so ****ing random. An upside down Corner Wall with a shotgun underneath it. Then the defenders get a turret, 60 second respawn. One minute isn't that long in a real game, buddy. This map, didn't even have to try to get out of. One grenade jump and you're out. And the best part? There's grenades right where you get out at.
Core - (4/10) - This map is WAY to open. I admit, I liked the middle thing. But not enough to like the map. The walls were crooked. And what the **** is with the Man Cannons at the top? Shotguns, one on each side, both set to 30 second respawn. Same goes for camo, overshield and pretty much everything else on this map. Fail. Then there's an overshield RIGHT THERE at each base. Two BRs, two ARs, two Pistols, two SMGs, two plasma grenades, two plasma pistols. Each base. ****ing fail. Just right at the base. Don't even have to work to get the weapons. There's not much else to say about this map because of how ****ing empty it is.
Multi Flag Wars - (5/10) - I like maps on old maps. I did not like this map. Right when I spawned, two BRs. I go to a base, 4 SMGs, two pistols, a grav lift, a radar jammer, a rocket (45 second respawn), two mongoose, a warthog and a hornet. And yet no spawn points there. The whole map had two spawn points. The other base? A turret, 6 SMGs, two snipers, grav lift, tripmine, rocket, 2 magnums, 2 mongoose, a warthog, a hornet and a ****ing tank. To add to it, there's a Spartan Laser just before where you land when you go through the man cannon. And that's the map.
Videos:
3 assassination - (1/10) - Ok, seriously why? The guy gets three assassinations in a row, big deal. It wasn't even a triple kill. And he almost dies twice. Not worth the slot.
stickyawesome - (4/10) - We watch a guy fail with sticky greandes and then, finally, throw a sticky through the window and stick someone. It's cool, yes, but it's been done before.
How to laster - (2/10) - Big deal. He gets 7 kills with a laser. Not very hard, especially on Sandtrap when everyone goes for a vehicle. The laser is an anti-vehicle weapon.
everydaylife - (1/10) - We watch a guy get raped in the warthog. The highlight of the film? Watching the warthog roll. That's the best part. This movie was completely pointless.
Best Splatter - (5/10) - I found this mildly amusing, but again, not that great. It's been done before, it never got better.
Screenshots:
Heavenly Hog - (10/10) - It's unique. I've never seen this done before. It looks cool. I like this picture. This is something I'd expect to be photoshopped.
Destruction - (4/10) - What, Master Chief's start point on Floodgate? That's great. I want to see that, I'd play Campaign. This was cool, but it's too simple. It didn't require any work. The angle could've been far better.
Gargoyle - (6/10) - I like this picture. Alot of work went into it, you can tell. However, I'm tired of seeing it. This is what, the third week we've seen it? Come up with a new screenshot, please.
Tropical - (9/10) - I like this picture. It makes me thing of a tsunami, which is tropical. It's got nice lighting, and the angle's good. It almost looks like a negative image.
JAWS - (7/10) - This screenshot was nice and well developed, but it just didn't seem that great. Atleast not worthy of Bungie Faviorites.
