A Bit of a Halo Flashback

I had a bit of a Xbox flashback on Sunday night as I ended up meeting with a college friend and since both of us had our wives out of town we decided to take advantage of the moment and play a bit of Halo. Notice I didn’t say Halo 3. We were playing the original Halo on the original Xbox.
I was reminded and shocked by a variety of things:
- there has been a real improvement on graphics since the first game
- I don’t think you could jump as high in the original version
- you couldn’t dual-wield weapons in the first one
Even with those differences though, playing the game was still a good time. There’s always the new version though that really calls my name with the new features and functionality and abilities.
Good timing today because I received an email letting me know the Halo 3 Cold Storage Map Pack for free. The Halo 3 Legendary Map Pack is now only 600 Xbox points as well.
Maybe you’ll see me online sometime. Let me know if you’re a reader of this blog if you see me.
