I'm slow maybe, I don't get the above.....

But I just heard a marine (on the gondola) say, 'Guys, back to my place for pie'. It was the voice of David Cross (of Arrested Development).

Not from the game but we had a lan party the first night and around 4:30am our team was kicking really arse and then we noticed that one guy was just standing still after spawning.

"Are you guys asleep in there" - no answer. Walk in and only one of the four was still awake. The other three were crashed out with controllers in hand -

Was playing Campaign today and one of the Cov drop ships dropped off some reinforcements.

While they were coming into the structure I heard one of the Grunts say, "The Demon is here!!" and the other Grunt said "I've got dibs on his boots"

I got a good chuckle outa that!!

Just saw this on another site, not sure if it was posted before, but I found it a little funny

10 ways the Canadian version of Halo 2 differs from the U.S. version:

1. The guns are registered (but not very well).
2. Injured players get publicly funded health care.
3. Computer players apologize when you shoot them.
4. "Cuba" level is unlocked.
5. Tim Hortons product placement.
6. Two clans named "Roughriders."
7. Annoying players can be kicked "oot" of multi-player mode.
8. "Melting Pot" level renamed "Cultural Mosaic."
9. Officially refuses invitations to join U.S.-led multi-player campaigns, then quietly helps behind the scenes without telling anyone.
10. Price tag: $59.99.

One of my fellow marines went running up to a grunt as he said, "You're just the right height...to kiss my ass!"

Have you guys noticed how soldiers run up to dead convenant bodies while shooting and yelling funny lines?

I didn't hear this the first time through on Normal, but the second time on Heroic I heard one of the marines say "This one's for Reach!" Neat shoutout to people who have read the books or played ilovebees.

Cross has a much larger role on Mr. Show than on A.D.
Thank you!

He's got a much bigger part of Mr. Show (half in fact) but I guess fewer people see that than Arrested Development since it's on cable only.

I noticed offline when I was playing as the Cov, one of my elites started shooting dead guys on the floor repeatidly. At first I thought he was still alive (ala Fable) and I started blasting too before I realized it was dead.

Was playing last night on the level where you need to ride on those two platforms across a lake to get to the temple where the Prophet is hiding...

A female Marine said after a heated battle, "Schooled ya, K through 12!"

But here's the kicker...
My wife sits down next to me to watch me play the game. Right then, a male Marine says something to the extent of, "Take that maricon!"
My wife looks at me in shock, "What did he just say!?!" knowing darn well what the Marine had just said. Then 1 second later the Marine says, "Cavron!"

Now that's called timing.

I'll prob'ly spell it incorrectly, but that old Latin (?) saying with a new twist... "Vidi, Vici, We kicked their *ss!"

I let my kids play but I put the sound through the speakers to montior the old farts and the language. One game my 9 yr old kicked major butt. When the stat screen came up a guy said something to my kid like he wanted ta send him a friend invite. When my son unmuted and replied in his unaltered voice, the guy said "wait..how old are you?" My son replied 9,and the name suddenly disappeared/logged out.

cabron = Word in spanish with many different meanings. The real meaning is the male goat. Female is cabra and male is cabron. But slang use is far more common. Depending on countries it seems to have somehow different but similar meanings. A good definiton that would apply in almost all Spanish speaking countries would be asshole-fucker-bitch. In some places the word also means a person that is not with his partner. Example: Se fue de cabron. He went to fuck around. In this way it always has the connotation that he is looking for an affair.

Maricon = Spanish derogatory word for a gay person similar to fagget in english.

Huh? Where in my post did you get the notion that I was "scared of my wife"?

Cool!
Thanks. I didn't even realize the original meaning. I've only known it as the slang version.

While we're on the topic...
faggot: a stack or bundle of twigs/branches.

How about when you finish it on Legendary, "February 9" scroll on the screen, alluding to either Halo3, or an add-on? That was pretty neat...
