Friday Caption Fun, Round 88

Halo 3 ScreenshotYesterday we said a tearful goodbye to Halo 2 and every other online original Xbox title. Thankfully though Bungie’s got your back through this very difficult time. This weekend for your double experience pleasure is Team Throwback, an offering focused on familiar favorites. It’s not Multi Flag on Coagulation, but it will do. Oh who are we kidding, we are going to miss good ol’ Halo 2! Let’s distract ourselves from the pain by going over the more entertaining responses from last week and then we can caption a brand new screenshot. To our beloved Halo 2: this one’s for you…

  • “Bip?” “Bap.” “Bam!” *high fives* (Panncakez)
  • “Johnson and Johnson: A family company” (porge)
  • “Finally, someone else who knows what the ladies like!” (A Shaky Shotgun)
  • “You ever wonder why we’re here?” (SonofMacPhisto)
  • “Cloning: How Sgt. Johnson really survived the legendary cut scene of Halo: CE.” (retinence)
  • “I see your schwartz is as big as mine.” (Schedonnardus)
  • “And here we see the problem with giving away codes to unlock Johnson in Firefight. Repetition repetition repetition.” (ZZoMBiE13)
  • Miranda, “That’s not what I meant when I said I wanted two Johnsons ready for insertion!” (JLay)

Twitter T&A Thursday: Saying Goodbye to Halo 2

Twitter T&A is where I ask your T(houghts) about various video game-related topics and you give me your A(nswers), all via Twitter. Sometimes serious, sometimes silly, they’re all 140 characters or less. You know what they say, less is more. Or something like that.

Halo 2: Did You Know?

Halo 3 Screenshot

Halo 2 has always offered witty, bite-sized pieces of wisdom on the lower left portion of the holding screen that’s visible while waiting to get paired up in matchmaking. That particular text box typically includes anything from basic performance advice to the most recent news on downloadable content. Sometime not long ago however Bungie flipped the fun switch and now in its place are a plethora of relevant, nostalgia-inducing, entertainingly sarcastic remarks. Here are the more humorous ones I’ve come across in the past few days. If you’ve seen any not listed, feel free to leave them in a comment!
