Video: Halo 3 kill stealing with fusion cores
Today is yet another lazy Sunday, so we find no better time than now to visit the pile of random Halo 3 videos to bring you yet another video gem.
We have here one of the most complicated Halo 3 kill steals we've ever seen, complete with sniper action, fusion core explosions, a splatter and a missed melee. It's best to just watch the video to get the full kill stealing experience, but the gist of it is that a player snipes one of the other team's Spartans, then that same bullet hits a fusion core, which explodes next to another player who (by chance) is milliseconds away from being assassinated but gets knocked into the wall giving the sniper player a splatter kill. It's random and totally delicious! These videos also make us want to plead with EVERY game developer to incorporate some kind of record functionality in their games. Moments like this are too priceless to waste.

Not bad, but the greatest kill steal "in Halo history" it is not.

Oh god no. I seriously would stop my damn near religious reading of X3F if they did that.

I usually love this stuff, but this was very unimpressive. This is standard Halo gameplay.

It was Incubus but it was actually the track "When It Comes" from the album "Make Yourself", which is a great album. I used to listen to Incubus was back in my long haired teenager days and still enjoy them to this day, despite my music tastes involving.

GTA IV really could do with a recording system, unless I've missed this feature.

Slow day. Funny GTA moment I would like to have captured:
Standing on a ledge of statue of happiness, armed with a rocket launcher. A group of 3 civilians about 50 feet down. I take aim, fire, and watch the civilians explode and catch on fire. Unfortunately, one of them flew at me, knocked me down, caught me on fire, and then a quick death ensued. It was pretty funny. My friend watching couldn't stop laughing. Lets rename the post to funny GTA moments. That may help the day pass. Or playing GTA would help too...

Take this bullcrap down firstly he didnt even kill the guy he shot first, didnt even get a head shot or a double kill, he didnt even know that guy was there, this is pretty horrible halo footage, ive seen that done with a double head shot and fusion coil kill making for a triple kill in one shot

Lets just put an end to the music during these clips. Nobody else gives a shit what songs you like. Just make the clip, game audio intact.

It's really unfortunate GTA doesn't have something like this. So many great moments happening that I can't revisit! Blargh.
