Sea Snipers Author Halo Reach Guide!
 

• Midnight Release Event & On Location Pics •

[SS]Rator and [SS]Midnight got to head out to Seattle and work at Microsoft to compile the multiplayer section of the Halo Reach guide. Another great experience for us and we were thrilled to be involved in one of the biggest games ever. We worked with Phil Marcus on the MP section and we also marked out all of the weapons, vehicles, spawn points and objective locations on all of the maps. We didn't illustrate the maps this time as Bungie requested to use their own screenshots. Midnight and I both ran the midnight release events at our local GameStops last night and what a trip. So much fun, and we got to meet a ton of cool people. Our stores ran a series of tournaments for prizes. Brady Games and Microsoft furnished us with lots of goodies from Halo Encyclopedias, to guides, McFarlane action figures, shirts etc. We signed tons of stuff, I signed some kids' wallets lol, lots of guides, games, discs, shirts, hats and more. I had a guy ask me if I wrote the MW2 guide, i said yes, he said "I can't thank you enough for that guide, because of that guide, I made it to the top of the Free for All circuit and won $6,000!". How awesome is that?! Best, [SS]Rator & The Sea Snipers®

Look at that guide beard!!

Grats on the guide!

Looks good. Short and too the point. And you were nice enough to leave out the "Midnight! LET ME IN!" moments. Heh.

For the rest of you that is all about the security of the place. Rator had to go outside to smoke and he would tell me "Midnight give me 5 (or 10) minutes," and I would set the countdown on my phone and keep working, then go open the door for him when my alarm went off. Well on two (or more...) occasions I forgot to set my timer and in turn Rator. I left him outside calling my phone and leaving messages that I would not get till after we left for the day cause our phone did not get any signal in that place. Rator had to sneak back in when other MS workers went in and some of them would be all "I don't know you" and leave him stuck outside.

Good times.

damn, that sucks, that shit was epic as hell, lol

Of course. If it's here in public, you can post it.

Thanks Joker! Even though the guides are a LOT of work, they are tons of fun to work on. I know a bunch of us are playing it in our down time too.
