Imagine buying a loaf of bread, except, you have to cut the slices by yourself. Tedious isn't it?

That's what bread cutters are for...

In order to graduate culinary , you're required to make the bread , then slice it... it takes a minute to slice a loaf

also I wasn't saying it was like Quake 3, I was saying it was just the 3rd game in a great series, no reason for the world to stop turning. And yeah, if I judged Halo by the people I have had to play with it would get a terrible rating but I think that is bogus, there are plenty of jerks online, and with plenty of other games too.

Also, I don't care if it is really customizable, the fact is, it's x amount of maps, you are a human or a covenant, you have a set of weaponry, maybe a few extra guns, few extra vehicles, strategy is basically the same. It feels like a mod or expansion pack for Halo 2. It's like this is what people were expecting THEN, and now that we are HERE, it's not the most impressive thing since sliced bread.

it's ok though, we have different opinions, I like innovation and you don't, that's cool. I just wanted you to understand me clearly so there wasn't any confusion.
I'll agree to disagree, but mess with forge before you complain about lack of innovation.

fair enough, it is too bad that you can't actually alter the level itself, but I won't say more because I haven't been able to fully delve into that specific feature myself. I do applaud the video feature though, and I know that they will inevitably release more maps so that will spice the game up a bit.

Screw that. Why pay for something extra to cut a loaf of bread?

but if you buy it sliced you're paying them to slice it whether you want to or not. SOMEBODY has to slice it

a good bread cutter isn't cheap but they are pretty cool and handy if you eat a lot of homemade bread. When I was in high school I ate over at my friend's house all the time and his mom had an electric one that was like a chainsaw, and she made AWESOME bread.

Nonsense.
I'm sure someone, somewhere, has wadded a slice of bread into a ball, stuffed it down someone's throat, and laughed as they suffocated.

You can freeze a loaf of bread and beat somebody with it...

What silliness! Has nobody ever heard of a fucking knife, one of those made for cutting bread?
Are those really only used here in Scandinavia? Is the rest of the world too weak and unskilled to cut bread using a knife?

What is going on?!

Also, lol @ bread hijack.

creaothceann · Post by **creaothceann** » Mon Oct 01, 2007 7:16 pm

We have a quite large & quite sharp bread knife, used to remove one big loaf from a new bread.

Panzer88 · Post by **Panzer88** » Mon Oct 01, 2007 11:05 pm

yeah, if you make a lot of bread you soon realize that using any old knife that isn't made for it really gets old. Bread knifes aren't expensive or anything.

On a side note, Halo 3 is more of an improvement than I gave it credit for, but I still think that the whole country going ape is a little excessive.

Only on ZBoard can a topic about Halo turn into a topic about bread.

Sometimes I really like this place.

Zero Punctuation takes on Halo 3

impressive with the katana.

i've managed the hayabusa stuff, but i don't play enough multiplayer right now to get those achievements. and i'm pretty sure i need a friend to help me get through legendary. i can just about do the meta-game on solo on heroic.

msg me sometime and I can help you with those stupid meta score ones , I know which skulls are best to use to get the scores , and I know if you don't die a lot you can easily get them if I make you kill nearly every enemy on a mission , yet if you happen to die you wont restart everything.
The only level I complain about is "cortana" where you travel into an asshole only to hit a nerve and shit yourself back out... My GT is the same as my username
