    In case you didn't know, Grifball is a Halo variant. This weekend, Grifball is the Double EXP gametype and I am hoping to get a team together tonight to whack the orange guy.

    i played on one of those "all grifball" nights or whatever a few years ago and it was really fun, there were some epic games. unfortunately my 360 is RROD-busted and i haven't fixed it yet.

    I love grifball, but my xbox is in the shop getting repaired. This sucks, because I really wanted to play grifball :(.

    I'd rather be the orange guy. Killing the orange guy just means your team doesn't have the ball. :cool:

    Yes I do play, but it is amongst my least favorite gametypes because it can wreck havoc on my k/d spread. Regardless you can add me: JamesatGSU

    The only k/d ratio I care about is ranked. If they ever do ranked Grifball, that one will get hosed too!

    It is a variant in Halo 3 that is kind of like a cross between football and basketball. It is continuous, like basketball, but based on controlling the ball and getting blockers in front of you, like football.

    Buy Xbox360, Buy Halo 3:ODST, put Halo 3 matchmaking disc in Xbox 360,go online with it, choose the double exp playlist, choose grifball. Pick up ball, or use hammer/sword to kill the carrier/protect your carrier.

    I forgot the head for the spot marked with a blue arrow to score if you pick the ball up. Now he will never score. :cool:

    I have become a heck of a ball runner. I am particularly good at getting a bounce in Aerial Grifball.

    I play Grifball sometimes. My level is around a 40, although that doesn't mean anything in a game like griffball.

    At what point does the Airing of Grievances play its role in this fine tradition of Grifball?

    Pretty good. Living about 20 miles north of Fort Worth, doing the network/desktop support for the UTMB clinics in the prisons in the area. Disgustingly easy job. I'll give you a shout sometime soon.
