The Hushed Casket was founded in 2002 shortly after the launch of the XBOX console. Today the Hushed Casket is a thriving community of gamers, playing together and publishing news and stories that have appeared in major media properties like Newsweek, G4TV, USA Today, and Penny Arcade. Some game developers have even referenced our guides and news to support their gamers. We don't play Halo. We LAN Halo.

By the way: I still contend

By the way: I still contend that this game is one of the coolest gems out there right now for the 360. You know those COD4 moments where your team is doing so well that you've all got helicopters and airstrikes queued up. Well, imagine not having to wait to unleash your airstrike (or AC-130 gatlin gun fire controllable in realtime - which is my favorite btw). It's way different than CODd4, but has similar moments.

You get your skills by certain achievements each game similar to the radar/airstrike/helicopter upgrades in COD4.

Why they chose the worst map (Oil Field) in Frontlines for the demo, on an Xbox hosted server, I'm not sure. But jump into the Roundabout map on a hosted server with 32 people and it is very intense. I usually rack up a pretty high kill/death ration in that map.

Mintz: Sorry to change the topic, but Slayer, are you bringing sausages to the LAN? Wieners? Bratwursts?

Slayer: That's cause brass balls require bigger clubs... and only a gifted few boast the required equipment.
