1
00:00:00,150 --> 00:00:03,280
- Like the entire rest of the PC gaming world,

2
00:00:03,280 --> 00:00:09,812
I've been playing some Halo Infinite level. Not gonna brag or anything, but I'm gold four, okay.

3
00:00:09,812 --> 00:00:14,950
(laughs) We've actually got a little care package from our friends

4
00:00:14,950 --> 00:00:20,300
at Microsoft that is supposed to be some kind of Halo Infinite themed something.

5
00:00:20,300 --> 00:00:25,620
Now, I'm gonna confess, I haven't actually played a Halo game since Halo One.

6
00:00:25,620 --> 00:00:29,110
So, hopefully these are really, really old references.

7
00:00:29,110 --> 00:00:32,932
Is Cortana like, alive still? Colton come on help me out. - I don't know.

8
00:00:32,932 --> 00:00:36,106
- You're supposed to be a gamer. - I don't play Halo. - You don't play Halo?

9
00:00:36,106 --> 00:00:41,650
- I do now. - Okay, all right. So we got UNSC, Unlock Classified.

10
00:00:41,650 --> 00:00:44,750
Wow, this is all kinds of fun here.

11
00:00:44,750 --> 00:00:48,870
Oh well, surely this seal could never be broken and redone.

12
00:00:48,870 --> 00:00:53,800
It's top secret, ladies and gentlemen. Oh my goodness, look at all this, swag.

13
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,140
Welcome Spartan. United Nations Space blah, blah, blah.

14
00:00:57,140 --> 00:01:00,820
Please examine and secure your personalized mission equipment, high clearance ID badge.

15
00:01:00,820 --> 00:01:04,780
Is this sponsored by Microsoft or, no? Okay. No, we're just hanging out,

16
00:01:04,780 --> 00:01:10,610
we're just doing a thing. Ooh, this is cool. 1227, what a missed opportunity,

17
00:01:10,610 --> 00:01:15,100
and you call yourselves gamers. All right, let's get this thing opened up.

18
00:01:15,100 --> 00:01:20,940
There we go. Ooh. Seems like I'm probably supposed to open these up in order.

19
00:01:20,940 --> 00:01:24,143
So I'm gonna start, with door number one.

20
00:01:26,410 --> 00:01:28,473
(box slams) What we got here.

21
00:01:29,450 --> 00:01:34,060
Oh nice, a copy of Halo Infinite. Wait, isn't it free?

22
00:01:34,060 --> 00:01:37,400
Oh, hey I got a code for the campaign, heck yeah, all right.

23
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,410
That saves me some trouble. And, it's a good thing I didn't buy

24
00:01:40,410 --> 00:01:45,740
an Elite Series Two controller during Black Friday like I was going to because apparently I just got one.

25
00:01:45,740 --> 00:01:49,409
Hey, thanks Microsoft. It's not squid game.

26
00:01:49,409 --> 00:01:54,010
(David laughs) Hey not every jacket with a number on it is squid game, David.

27
00:01:54,010 --> 00:01:57,480
You know what, I'll wear it. I'll wear the shell.

28
00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,990
Oh, this is not gonna be good for audio, is it? Got my convenient little pouch.

29
00:02:01,990 --> 00:02:08,990
This really takes me back to grade two. Remember starter jackets, anyone starter jackets?

30
00:02:08,990 --> 00:02:12,390
San Jose Shark, starter jacket, they had- - Oh yeah, yeah, yeah!

31
00:02:12,390 --> 00:02:17,600
- Right? - I like those. - Yeah, all right. Yeah, this takes me way back, okay.

32
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,500
Behind door number two, ow.

33
00:02:22,330 --> 00:02:28,090
This, must be the Elite Series Two controller. Holy smokes, this thing is heavy.

34
00:02:28,090 --> 00:02:31,370
Oh wait no, some of the weight seems to be other things in here, let's go-

35
00:02:31,370 --> 00:02:36,160
Oh, oh, the little foam. I have never actually been hands-on

36
00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:41,360
with an Elite Series Two. So, I'm just used to my regularly controller with its little

37
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,470
foam dude. But this is like a little charging cradle.

38
00:02:44,470 --> 00:02:48,847
Okay, that's pretty cool. Braided cable, got some nice color matching

39
00:02:48,847 --> 00:02:52,950
thumb stick replacements. This is a long cable, I actually like it.

40
00:02:52,950 --> 00:02:56,450
I'm not gonna need that for now though. I actually prefer the regular D-pads,

41
00:02:56,450 --> 00:03:00,360
I'm gonna swap that out real quick. Of course one of the coolest features of the Elite controllers is

42
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:04,870
they've got these back buttons like we had on third-party controllers for a lot of years,

43
00:03:04,870 --> 00:03:08,530
but now you can get on first party controllers. Man this thing is heavy.

44
00:03:08,530 --> 00:03:13,220
This is a really cool controller. I have to confess, even though I've heard the pro move

45
00:03:13,220 --> 00:03:18,330
is to play Halo Infinite with a controller, I've been going keyboard and mouse up until now.

46
00:03:18,330 --> 00:03:24,320
So I'm about to have my very first Halo Infinite with a controller gaming experience here I think.

47
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:28,360
One thing I missed, this is a fun feature. I remember this from my old NVIDIA Shield console,

48
00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:33,606
they've got a little pass through so you can still charge up your controller when it's inside of its carrying case.

49
00:03:33,606 --> 00:03:38,606
Ooh, now that's pretty cool.

50
00:03:40,190 --> 00:03:44,380
Hey David. - Yeah? - Do we have our old master chef helmet somewhere?

51
00:03:44,380 --> 00:03:48,793
Hold on, it makes- it makes noise.

52
00:03:49,888 --> 00:03:53,320
(ominous music)

53
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:57,570
Hey, there it is, okay. So is this the same as this one? - Looks, really close.

54
00:03:57,570 --> 00:04:01,130
No, it's different. - It's different. It is different, we've got a new one.

55
00:04:01,130 --> 00:04:04,800
Obviously I'm gonna have to try it on. Boy am I ever having a bad hair day.

56
00:04:07,119 --> 00:04:10,910
How do I look?

57
00:04:10,910 --> 00:04:14,730
So it looks like it's got a little, what are these called photovoltaic cell

58
00:04:14,730 --> 00:04:18,630
or something like that? So when you take the helmet off,

59
00:04:18,630 --> 00:04:21,770
I think it makes noise. Let's play some Halo.

60
00:04:21,770 --> 00:04:24,910
Okay, so can- what just happened?

61
00:04:24,910 --> 00:04:27,953
Do I have to download it? You didn't download it Colton.

62
00:04:27,953 --> 00:04:32,260
- What are you talking about? - You did not. If I don't play with this helmet on, then I'm not doing it right.

63
00:04:32,260 --> 00:04:36,930
Screw it, we're gonna play some multiplayer while we- can we play multiplayer while we wait for that?

64
00:04:36,930 --> 00:04:40,230
Okay, so what is this? Big Team Battle is like what? What game mode is it?

65
00:04:40,230 --> 00:04:43,482
Like is it captured the flag? - I think it changes. (gunshots)

66
00:04:43,482 --> 00:04:47,770
- Oh no, don't run me over. Don't run me over.

67
00:04:47,770 --> 00:04:51,870
I really am not a controller player.

68
00:04:51,870 --> 00:04:55,491
David, how do I get in- oh, I threw a grenade again. (car explodes)

69
00:04:55,491 --> 00:04:58,510
(guys laugh) That was terrible.

70
00:04:58,510 --> 00:05:01,850
I have no idea where we were supposed to go or what we're trying to do. Also I'm wearing this helmet.

71
00:05:01,850 --> 00:05:04,866
I mean, come on, go easy on me, right? You think I should take the helmet off?

72
00:05:04,866 --> 00:05:08,520
- Yeah I think, yeah. (gunshots) Oh my god, recoil.

73
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:11,980
Cannot control recoil with sticks. Why are there dead zones?

74
00:05:11,980 --> 00:05:16,140
Why are there dead zones when you're playing a competitive shooter? The campaign is not done downloading,

75
00:05:16,140 --> 00:05:20,860
so hey, what the hay, why don't you subscribe on Floatplane where I upload VODs of my game streams.

76
00:05:20,860 --> 00:05:24,030
Maybe I'll play some Halo campaign. Probably not with the controller,

77
00:05:24,030 --> 00:05:27,773
I think it would be best if I go back to the keyboard and mouse, but I'll see y'all over there.
