: been a while!

Greetings, good sir! It's been a while indeed, although it's quite a bit shorter than my longest absence without posting, which lasted a good five years. I see that BCM is as strong and grunty as ever! Your dedication never ceases to amaze me.

Alas, even if I get Halo PC running again, I won't be able to set up most of your megabattles. Incidentally, I don't remember if I ever told you why I never managed to do so? I remember reading that Gearbox used the Japanese version of Halo to port to the PC because that had a number of bug fixes (including changes like the sniper rifle zooming to 8x instead of 10x). That included fixes to fall damage so that anyone grazing the canyon walls down AOTCR would get instakilled. A touch funny that a few bugs that broke the fall damage code could help set up whole new play scenarios to exploit 20+ years after the original game came out, eh? :)
