Day 553 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I've been playing

Today’s game is some more Halo 2. Me and my friend went ahead and cleared up our last par time on the level Great Journey. It was a whole lot easier than regret, especially after sneaking a banshee in.

As of now i have all Par Times for Halo 2. As a result of this i’ve started to turn my attention a little to Par Scores.

As such that led to the main screenshot of today. That was from my Cairo Station run. This is a real challenge to get. I first played on normal with 7 skulls turned on, including the one that makes Grunts explode. I made Par Time and only got 9,000.

So i try again on Heroic. only i get crushed under this block twice and sent back to before i cleared the room. Then it happens again. So i end up drawing out the 15 minutes i have to clear the room.

And so i give it one more go, and make it all the way to the room with the bugs, and that draws me from 10 minutes to 14, so i think i need to rethink my entire strategy, as this isn’t working out as well as i thought.

Still, it’s not all bad, as par time went perfectly while playing with my friend. It was genuinely a pleasant experience. I can’t wait to try it with him on CE. I might bring him on for Par Score too, see if we can bring it all the way up.
