I don't remember if I got heavily into the "over-powered weapons" debate here at HBO? I remember complaining about the terribly long effective range of the DMR and Needler rifle in Reach. I complained because, mostly, when I used it with my old connection it wasn't as effective when I used them. I probably have less then 100 Halo 4 matchmaking game played to date so I'll hold my opinion about the DMR in that game. Now that I have a much faster connection none of the people on my friends list even plays Reach or Halo 4 matchmaking. I finally arrive at the party ready and equipped to have a good time but the party goers left a long time ago. Oh well!
