The sequel to teh most awesome plasma stick

Sorry guys, we don't think we're going to get tired of ridiculous Halo 3 plasma grenade sticks anytime soon and so we've got another one to share. Embedded above is a video from DaLTiNi featuring some mathematical plasma throwing precision in Guardian. And, as always, it's oh so entertaining. From what we can tell, it looks like DaLTiNi has practiced this little trick previously (getting the perfect angle mastered beforehand) and decided to use it in-game. And well, he pulled it off. Life truly doesn't get any better than plasma tossing in Halo 3.

That was awesome, eventually one of us here at X3F will do something cool like that.
Tr3y MoNey @ Oct 10th 2007 3:39PM
Yeah that's pretty cool. But more Lucky than cool. Sorry. The first one was better because it didn't look practiced.

These never GET old LOL

I don't know if I'm quite a believer yet. I think the other one was better. This could still have easily been staged.
He sees the grenade, and he walks into the gravity lift. It wouldn't be hard to fake.

Not news

STAGED FAKORRZ
TRUTH @ Oct 10th 2007 4:00PM
Cool Nonetheless

If they keep posting this non-newsworthy halo-fanboy crap then I will take my readership elsewhere.
and I refresh a lot and click a lot of ads!
consider this a warning!
Crazy Nut BE @ Oct 10th 2007 4:05PM

LOUDS @ Oct 10th 2007 4:13PM

download it to your 360 and see for yourself.

Only for the reason they felt compelled to prove it, I'm suspicious.

@8.
Bye. Besides, the bloggers get paid by AOL. AOL earns money on the ads. AOL still pays them even if there is less ad clicks, so they don't care if you click ads.

Good Rittens xenocidic!!!
We don't need your whinning here!
xenocidic @ Oct 10th 2007 4:31PM
it's spelled "riddance"

Zapper @ Oct 10th 2007 4:58PM
Not sure what the "just to prove it is not staged" tagline was..
I see a guy waiting in against a wall until the grenade bounces, then he runs into the lift and "gets stuck".
Fun to watch..just not convinced.
p.s. I like mine better..the stick was accomplished as I was getting sniped!!!
TORO @ Oct 10th 2007 4:39PM
Lol many people don't know you Xeno and that you like bustin' everyones chops.
Edzo04 @ Oct 10th 2007 4:41PM
yay?

It's in my queue for download LOUDS. I play through many matches at time, is there an easy way to "flag" a match you would like to save?
Or is the only way of doing this is by going to the Theatre Lobby and looking through your latest films all time?
UNSCleric @ Oct 10th 2007 4:48PM
100% staged.
Bravo6 @ Oct 10th 2007 5:15PM
Zapper - I think the guy spawned there then ran to the lift, vs waiting over there for the grenade
#17 I was wondering the same thing, in the beta you just hit X after a match to save it, don't seem to see that in it now..
TORO @ Oct 10th 2007 5:17PM
I don't think it's staged cause the blue guy just respawned after getting killed. That's what the "proof" thing was all about.

The player had just spawned and ran to the grav lift. Not staged, just a player guessing the next spawn location of the enemy.
Stephen @ Oct 10th 2007 5:41PM
I say Xeno and Truth go at it in Halo 3...loser can't post for a week.
Dustin, why don't we have an X3F reader Halo 3 Tourny?
I'd be so down!
phantomgrave @ Oct 10th 2007 7:39PM
Wow that's intense, who would think of throwing a sticking nade way up there in the first place. o_0
They must have seriously been studying these maps for a long time.
Bennyishere @ Oct 10th 2007 7:57PM
He was not there, then he was suddenly there. He spawned, duh.
DjDATZ @ Oct 10th 2007 8:01PM
LOL...we love you xeno! LOL
btw...that was an awesome stick...but definitely not as awesome as that other one. LOL
erivera3 @ Oct 10th 2007 8:40PM
Yeah, I am not too sure about that stick, seems too random to just be plain luck. I'm guessing a conspiracy of sorts.
Halo 3 is still the greatest though!

The films are automatically saved now. The 25 most recent matches, be they campaign or multiplayer, are auto saved on your hard drive. Go to the Theater Lobby to access and save them. It's a really nice change, since I often forgot to save my games.

The best part about these Halo vids is you can't be called a liar if you can produce the video. More plasma sticks...MORE!
Sgoghy @ Oct 10th 2007 10:01PM
This reminds me, anyone up for a game of zombies, I just got back on xbox live for halo 3 and have no friends
:(
If so, add me gt: Sgoghy
dylan @ Oct 10th 2007 11:49PM
As to the whole saving issue, I often play more than 25 matches in a sitting so if I have a game I want to save early on, I sometimes have to leave my party to go save a match, and it can be hard to jump back in with them... I wish the hit x to save feature appeared after the match as well.
randomshagz @ Oct 11th 2007 12:37AM
Thats what we call... spamming the respawn...
Imma kidding.

Here's his file share if anyone wants to check out his clip. He's got a bunch of other tricky videos too.

I hope every developer takes note how cool these replays are, and how they can promote your game.
I looking at you 2K stop charging me for advertising your game for free.
xPreatorianx @ Oct 11th 2007 7:39PM
LOL my friend on TS says it was staged to but if you look closely he spawns and the nade is to high for him to see at first plus, in my opinion (atleast it looks like it) his head is straight and looking at the battle. So as he goes into it he sees it and thinks ooh crap im dead and by then its to late. It is not staged if it is then i give them props it was a damn good stage. If it was staged!
