Yes I like Halo.

Pride is great. If someone has accomplished something virtuous, the emotion of joy, and consequently pride, should be embraced, not shunned. Pride is the feeling and acknowledgment of accomplishment, to detest pride is to detest the two.

Pride of course has to be earned, if it's a false sense of pride, then it's just a lie, and could hardly be called pride at all.

Only a person who hates happiness and achievement would consider pride bad, either that or they are so insecure that they hate seeing other people enjoy their own success.

Looks good, especially considering Halo has a "bland" art direction of sharp angles and flatness, which is fine because I like it like that.

Never played the beta, so i have a qustion about the assasination animations. It seems like it takes quit a bit of time for the animation to complete, a lot longer than the HaloCE-3 melee. Does the animation stop if you are shot during it? It looks like it leaves you open to attack, which would suck no matter how cool it looks.

So how will custom maps be played? Will there be a custom maps matchmaking list where you are randomly put in one? Can you search a list of them?

Since you probably don't have a credit history it is a VERY BAD idea to make big purchases on your first credit card.

Believe me, I went through this pain already. Back when I was in the Air Force I got a credit card from my bank with insanely high interest. Little did I know that that **** really racks up when you buy a laptop with it. Took me a year to pay that thing off, and I paid more in interest than the actual laptop cost.

Best advice I can give you is to start small, drop maybe 200 dollars onto it and pay it off over the course of a few months. That will build your credit up real fast. I also suggest getting a credit card from the gas station you normally use. Put all your gas on that and make sure it's paid off every single month.

I won't explain everything to you but I will give you this advice, do not buy a laptop with a credit card when you aren't experienced with having credit. Save up for one, buying expensive items on credit isn't smart, trust me I've seen people go down that path. Also, I will say that a credit card is an amazing tool to have, just set yourself a low limit, $500 say, and don't charge anything expensive on it until you get the swing of having one and learning to pay it off every month, don't up your limit until you feel you have the financial stability to handle a high limit, never ever just pay the minimum monthly, always go over. These are my words of advice, heed them if you will, credit cards are a strange and dangerous beast in clueless hands, but in smart hands they are a limitless tool of awesomeness. Also I know I didn't answer your questions, I cant really say but just thought I would give my advice.Im_single

I have enough cash to buy whatever I need, I could pay it off in cash, but like I said in the OP I just want to build credit. I have a steady job and basically no bills aside from rent. I don't spend money anyway, I basically just save it. But i might as well start building my credit.

I've always used cash to buy things and make payments, or my bank debit card, never had a credit card (visa, Amer Exp, Master Card etc). I want to build my credit and have heard that using a CC on regular purchases, and then making the payments on time is a good way to do it.

So what do you do? Just sign up with a credit card company, buy whatever and make payments?

How is the minimum monthly payment amount decided?

How fast will I build credit?

How easy is it to cancle the card/account?

I'd like to open an account and maybe buy a new laptop, probably only put that on the card, and just see how everything goes. What kind of payments, and interest, could I expect on a ~$600-$700 laptop?
