Teh most amazing plasma grenade stick ... evar

by Dustin Burg { Oct 4th 2007 at 1:15PM }

Halo 3's saved films feature is one of the single coolest things implemented into a game to date, especially when you need video proof of the most amazing grenade stick ever. Embedded above is the video of BlackShadowMist's most amazing plasma grenade stick that made our jaw drop and left us with only one descriptive adjective ... amazing. Just picture it. You're in The Pit, see a sniper on the turret tower, so you launch a grenade through the air in desperation, you then see your grenade miss the sniper's body, but are overjoyed to watch your plasma land in the gravity lift behind the tower and get flung into the air only to land on said sniper's head. What more can we say than ... amazing.

It actually missed him then traveled up and stuck on him wow, kinda like the plasma pistols in halo 2 as long as your sort of close it will hit I guess.

AFAI @ Oct 4th 2007 1:22PM

That is just plain sick!

Prophestus @ Oct 4th 2007 1:24PM

haha wow lucky bastard. Best thing I've done is killed two people with headshots using only one sniper bullet. Its up in my fileshare.

Cass-D @ Oct 4th 2007 1:31PM

Dude has got to be Irish.

hiiro @ Oct 4th 2007 1:37PM

Yeah the 2 for one sniper shot seems to be common. I've done it a couple of times. I was celebrating that I stuck a guy in his gravity hammer. On the very tip of it, so it looks like he's carrying a blue torch. Then I saw this... Saved films FTW!

I've been sacrificing oddball and king of the hill matches to try and get that sword triple kill achievement and an ascetic helmet. It's all about luck. :(

TORO @ Oct 4th 2007 1:38PM

Yea Halo 3 is teh best!

polar @ Oct 4th 2007 1:49PM

Crazy.

DemonGSides @ Oct 4th 2007 1:50PM

He got it barely stuck on the butt of the sniper rifle.

Know what that means people? Small weapons! Swords, Pistols, needlers, plasma rifles! No getting stuck on the weapon!

HazyCloud @ Oct 4th 2007 1:53PM

Saw this video on joystiq this morning. Best user video yet. Thank you Bungie for adding the saved game feature. Xbox 360 FTW!

Jonah Falcon @ Oct 4th 2007 1:53PM

Without Game Film, people would be saying, "Yeah, right. Bullshit." to the guy.

MisurA @ Oct 4th 2007 1:55PM

Hey Dustin, post something about www.halo3league.com man.

Site gives the ability for users to create not only free but cash tournaments with top prizes ranging over $1100! Tournaments can be customized with pretty much any option that you can choose in a custom game with any game type.

As for that video, LOL.. Just wicked!

@ MisurA

Please go sell your wares somewhere else. I don't need to keep seeing this comment spam on every post.

h0mi @ Oct 4th 2007 2:03PM

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

thats all I can really say.

Bravo6 @ Oct 4th 2007 2:05PM

awesome

Evil Aardvark @ Oct 4th 2007 2:18PM

I'm about to pull a skeptic and normally I hate that guy, but...

What do you think the chances are that this was staged?

In the video the main guy and the extra red and blue guys all have plasma grenades, in fact so does the guy that dies since he explodes like he does. So it could be that they stocked up for the purpose of making the film.

Seems like if you set your mind to using the gravlift, it'd only be a matter of getting 3 of your friends into a player match and then getting the positioning right.

Sorry to be like that, but it's kinda how I see it. Even so it was a great feat of skill if not chance.

TORO @ Oct 4th 2007 2:21PM

Just luck, you'll see this a lot more often Aardvark with saved films.

Gemini Ace @ Oct 4th 2007 2:23PM

Sticky grenades FTW!

xenocidic @ Oct 4th 2007 2:28PM

This is hardly newsworthy.

Maybe if this was halo3fanboy.com, but it's not.

Aaron @ Oct 4th 2007 2:29PM

AMAZING

BrianM @ Oct 4th 2007 2:32PM

Lol very cool

MisurA @ Oct 4th 2007 2:42PM

@ Neon Jebus

How about you relax dude and just ignore it then? I am not selling a damn thing, just trying to get the attention of the authors..

Knight Marquise @ Oct 4th 2007 2:55PM

xenocidic

I know you'r more of a shadowrun fan, but seriously, you have to admit, you're the minority when it comes to xbox fans. Most xbox fans became xbox fans because of Halo. I don't find it unreasonable to have Halo oriented items posted on xbox360fanboy.

Neon Jebus @ Oct 4th 2007 3:01PM

@ MisurA

If that is the case you can send them the news by using the 'Send us news tips' link located in the Resources section.

I understand you aren't selling anything. I'm as calm as a cucumber. It's just that when you market a service like you have in a comments section and it contains ANY mention on gaming for money it just feels a bit suspect. We are all loving us some Halos right now (well maybe not xenocidic he's waiting for new Shadowrun maps) but they offer you a way to submit news, just use that and not repeat yourself over and over again.

xenocidic I'm just giving you a bit of a hard time. Please don't hate me!

TORO @ Oct 4th 2007 3:07PM

Xeno shadowrun GOTY!

xenocidic @ Oct 4th 2007 3:10PM

i like halo too, i just don't think this is a newsworthy piece of halo information.

there are other games on the 360 !

Alex Teuscher @ Oct 4th 2007 3:11PM

wow

Mr Cool @ Oct 4th 2007 3:12PM

Pwnd. :)

Neon Jebus @ Oct 4th 2007 3:19PM

@5

I know what you mean about the double kill with a single shot. I have an screenshot as well showing me scoring one. The thing is you can see by the trail it didn't come close to hitting the second guy. Shot bounced in front of him and went low between his feet.

These saved films are going to offer up so much crazy stuff. It makes you try some crazy stuff every now in again in hopes of scoring a great video.

Jonah Falcon @ Oct 4th 2007 3:39PM

Every time I play a round, I always am hoping something really really funky happens so I can save the game film. :p

ShadowedAsh @ Oct 4th 2007 3:51PM

Yet another slow news day. Sigh.

Larry @ Oct 4th 2007 3:52PM

The best thing about this is the guy who did the sticking may have never know how he did, but just went out to the next game without save film.

Darkharmony @ Oct 4th 2007 4:06PM

All I can say is watch out for those grav lifts never know when it's gonna spit up a grenade at you.

nawtcool @ Oct 4th 2007 4:10PM

@ 18.... STFU, the only reason everyone ever bought the first xbox was because of halo 1 as a launch title.

that gernade was F#$%@G incredible!!!

yuppy @ Oct 4th 2007 4:44PM

sweet thanks for the vid

ReekinHavok @ Oct 4th 2007 4:57PM

How long do you think it took those 2 to practice that?

xenocidic @ Oct 4th 2007 4:59PM

@33 that still doesn't make saved films newsworthy.

HALO 3 ROCKZ @ Oct 4th 2007 6:38PM

That was an awesome grenade throw!!! btw what does "ftw" mean

Peter @ Oct 4th 2007 6:42PM

@ HALO 3 ROCKZ

FTW=For the Win. Popular 1337 speak in Halo 3.

HALO 3 ROCKZ @ Oct 4th 2007 7:04PM

oh ok, thanks peter!

DP @ Oct 4th 2007 7:32PM

very nice

Metacore @ Oct 4th 2007 8:20PM

I like this idea. If a thousand monkeys typed for a thousand years they'll come up with Shakespeare quality play(Schrodinger's cat is another example). All Bungie did was give us a way to record a thousand monkeys playing Halo. Every few thousand games something spectacular is bound to happen. Of course, there are always the pro teams, which I look forward to seeing as well.

Then there are staged films, but hey, why let that ruin it for everyone?

P.S.
Where is the machinima?

GalacticOkie @ Oct 4th 2007 9:51PM

Crazy!! Look for that being ripped off in a theater near you!

DjDATZ @ Oct 4th 2007 10:07PM

WOW!

Shmil @ Oct 5th 2007 1:10AM

@Metacore

wtf does the age old thought that a thousand monkeys with a thousand typewriters with an infinite amount of time will eventually by chance will write one of shakespear's work
a similar example to an advance theory that if i a cat is put in an impervious box that no one can get into and no one can measure the status of the cat in any way whatsoever because if they did they would change the status of the cat,

those are two extremely differnt thoughts and are not alike in the slightest that i know of
in fact if there is some similarity at all between those two theories then i would love to hear it
