Played some Forge multiplayer games with some good Halo buds last night, and let me tell you… It was a good time! We started off with the blank version of Sandtrap and added a couple ghosts, tanks, banshees all kinds of big-daddy weapons like the missile pod and spartan laser.
Lots of explosions (and some friendly-fire. [...]

The Pit
Valhalla

Crushing the enemy by dropping tanks & other vehicles on them was wildly entertaining. Just having the ability to modify the Halo 3 maps on the fly was… Addictive in a god-like way–creating and editing to your heart’s desire.
However, this was just the first experiment with Forge and we weren’t really trying to kill each [...]
