Beer pong. It’s an innocent party game that is sometimes turned not-innocent by idiots with hyper-competitive tendencies and lack of perspective. It’s also the subject of many bad songs. Now, it’s in Halo 5too.
Making use of Halo 5‘s Forge mode, user AFTM Reclaimer made beer pong based on a Grifball variant. You stand on one side and throw a ball at a triangle of cups that are far away. Sounds like beer pong to me. But, when you make one, you head over to a series of switches and activate whichever one corresponds to the cup that needs to be pulled. A little complicated but it gets the job done.
For anyone who’s interested, AFTM Reclaimer wrote a little bit on ForgeHub about what went into this game mode. Those who want to get straight to the partyin’ can download beer pong on Halo Waypoint.
It’s a good premise, but it’s not unprecedented. Beer pong has shown up in video games before, one of my personal ironic favorites being Beer Pong!Considering Kyle gave that a 1/10, Halo‘s take is almost undoubtedly better.
