Your typical semi-literate halo fanatic with a vision of conquering Bungie itself…

Trueskill System

I feel compelled to apologize for the long absence, I’m in the middle of my college finals so the updates are few and far between lately. Sorry for that, you’ll just have to bear with me I’m afraid. Anyway, I figured that I had to at least leave a something of a post at some [...]

Team Swat

Team Swat, so far the notorious double experience weekend favourite of Bungie. However it seems that soon this playlist will join the ranks of Halo 3’s other regular playlists as a ranked DLC permanent varient.
For those who havent played Team Swat yet, the gametype plays exactly the same as Team Slayer but with several [...]

Pelican vs Phantom

I know its an overused topic, but I’ve been weighing pro’s and con’s with a potential Pelican vs Phantom debate in my head.

Quite a few people were asking about why people who actually bought the [...]

 Anyway, we were amused to hear that our opponents gameplan [...]

Resuscitation…

We all thought HaloBuds might be going down and it was a dark moment for us all. However their is some light of hope left it seems…
Several new authors, including myself, were recruited by the excellent people here at HaloBuds and we’re more than ready to help breathe some life back into the best Halo 3 [...]
