That's awesome. I've played HALO quite a bit, especially on multiplayer, and it's really great. My favorite multiplayer game is 1 vs 1 with only Warthogs. You have to try to run the other person over with your Warthog, but you can't use guns. The trick is flipping the other person over while they're in their Warthog without getting flipped yourself. It's fun messing with the physics engine

Damn, does Download Aceelerator just SUCK or is it really THAT hard to find a site with ONE good DLable file? I'm getting no where with all of those links shown and I'm finding this more often than not with DAP.

The Rampancy.net link is a good one.

I refuse to use DAP anymore. Just plain old IE download and I rarely have any problems. Granted I have cable.

I found DAP handy on a dialup.

I got my from The Junkyard link at a nice 40k/s using Getright. I used DAP but got rid of it, I prefer Getright.

I must be doing something wrong. All I see is visual effects with music. Is that it?

The video isn't about HALO gameplay, it is about some people having too much time on their hands and having fun with the physics engine in HALO, mixing it with some cool tunes.

So that's it? It looks alot like the selectable visual effects I see everyday on my Musicmatch screen. Would have been very popular in the late '60s, early '70's while 'under the influence' of illegal chemicals.

OK, What I'm seeing is nothing more than what the Windows Media Player normally shows even if I put a cd in my cd-rom drive, nothing more. I'm not seeing any other video whatsoever. I've tryed this a couple times too.
Any explanations? I can DL and view any other videos just fine however.

Try Quicktime.

Don't you have QT installed? I guess I didn't figure out your post the first time since I rarely use WMP ....

EDIT: in case you need it get the complete software: http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/standalone/

It's a quicktime video. You're only playing the sound track

My friend sent me the high res version today. I was laughing so hard it wasn't funny. Amazing what boredom can produce. Although that was probably discovered by accident....

I remember doing something similar with Flight Unlimited. I had a couple of pilot friends over and we were testing the "envelope" of the simulator.

We discovered a physics bug: if you crashed into a hill on the downward slope at over a certain speed, your plane wreckage would become frictionless as it tumbled down the hill and never lose speed - once the wreckage hit a flat plain it would keep going and even climb hills.

Wasn't easy to do, and a lot of beer and catcalls helped as we each took a turn and made it into a contest.... it's fun exploring a game's physics limitations
