Ya the new magnum stinks, it used to be an awesome duel with an SMG. I like that the chief has to have a will! Good one GB keep'm
Comin!MMMMMMMMMMMM.....Tang!

5 | Blaz says:

This has gotta be bungie's wierdest decision. i could understand they slide down the Magnum's power from halo 1 to 2 (after all,the way it was used in mp was ridiculous.),but now after the update they nerfed it further. BOO!

6 | Joe Barnes says:

Yeah, it was all about when he said "sounds zen" that cracked me up.

7 | Snarf Da Baddass Grunt says:

Yay for puppies! why not kittens, though? At least they aren't free babies...
"sorry, sarge, these babies ain't selling well. We'll stick em in the rifle range and see what happens!"

10 | nighthawk says:

hmmm... i think we should all label our comments in the order they were posted, in case someone can't read the number on the left... for example, "w00t! 12th post!"

11 | hunter of the year says:

12 | phatgranny says:

Love the Zen

13 | pistol master says:

funny comic but i miss the old pistol 3 shots and your dead this new pistol you can do double and use all 24 and they still have sheilds so that comic is right on target

14 | Beoren says:

*sigh*
The carbine is dead accurate, includes a scope, and has a larger clip.

15 | Blaster stu says:

whats up with the pupies

16 | Battusai says:

they had to tone down the magnum via the update because it was too good and no one would use any other combo, which basically made the other guns on the map futile.

17 | That Guy says:

Dual magnums could take down a banshee in seconds.

Thing is, I'm still pissed about the new, inproved magnum. Sure, let it pack less punch to the body, but why less accuracy? Hmm...

18 | Leetin 'Banshee says:

So The Weapon Comparisons.
New vs. Old
1xSMG = 1x Assault Rifle
8xMagnum+scope = 1x Pistol
1xCarbine = 1x Pistol
2xPlasma pistol= 1x Plasma Pistol
1xRocket Lancher=1x RocketLauncher
1xEnergy sword =Teh_R0Xx0rZ

and that's just some. help anyone?

19 | Dirge says:

this comic is so true on many levels

20 | mooching sack of death says:

yeah, why did they have to change the pistol i mean it went from cool to not so cool to lame and now we know what to expect next time

21 | Crash says:

In my opinion, you can do some real damage with the new pistol. Not as much as in the old game, but you can still take out someone with full shields with about six bullets, and combined with the plasma pistol and relatively accurate shooting, it's unstoppable (at least in close combat)

22 | DeathXP32 says:

I guess they wanted to make the pistol more like a pistol should act in the year 2552. Weak.

23 | Hellfirefanatic says:

LMAO! Who's Will then... Lol...

24 | SuperDragonYoshi says:

Good work guys, it's kinda odd that a pistol 500+ years from now can't even kill an Elite without using an entire magazine of 12 shots (I would recommend the plasma pistol for once) Well, as soon as downloadable content comes (In June) I'll play Yoshi's Touch & Go tonight... YOSHI!

25 | Wannabe Master Sgt. Johnson says:

thats exactly why I rarely use the Halo 2 MAGNUM. Though still accurate, it does lack punch, and the scope is of course gone. Still, dual wielding 'em IS pretty awsome.

26 | Lian 'Ilsusee says:

KEWL
LOL!!! very funny!!!!!!
free puppies...lol
Who's will?
YOURS YA DUR DUR!!!!!!!
LOL!

27 | Ruiner87 says:

Hey that's pretty damn funny!Keep up the good work.

28 | Spartan058-HaloGeeky says:

Yet another great comic! SNAP!!! I laughed harder this time! great one!

P.S. Chief has a cat already, it got mailed to him in a U.P.S box...

29 | Tryan Shootamee says:

That's funny, never imaged Chief being a cat person...lol! this one is great!
I wonder why they changed the pistol...that was the weapon i fell back on alot...

Hey! tell a flashback of what happened to make the sarge get "expelled" from the shooting range...that would be funny and soooooo cool! Good job...as always! still waitin for a really bad one...ain't gunna happen is it? GREAT JOB!

30 | Grizzled Ancient says:

YEAH!!!! 36 post baby!!!!! i'm on a role! wEEEEEWEWEWEEEE0ot! lol j/k

great as always...

moral: if you don't want to die...don't pick up a pistol...
