Its popcorn time!
This being my final video montage of Halo 3 I pulled out all the footage. It was hard to choose which to keep and which to throw away. As Bird says every game involing Pirate has to have 15 peices of Flair. So grab your pizza shooters, shrimp poppers or extreme fajitas, and enjoy the show!
The expression coup de grâce (pronounced /ˌkuːdə ˈɡrɑːs/; French: [kudəɡʁas], "blow of mercy") means a death blow intended to end the suffering of a wounded creature. The phrase can refer to the killing of civilians or soldiers, friends or enemies, with or without the consent of the sufferer. It is often used figuratively to describe the last in a series of events which brings about the end of some entity; for example: "The business had been failing for years; the coup de grâce was the sudden jump in oil prices."
In the context of an execution, it means shooting the heart or head (typically the back of the skull) of an already wounded, but not yet dead, person during a military or civilian execution. It can also refer to the near beheading that follows a samurai's seppuku.
In wartime, it can also be used to refer to the shooting (or other killing) of a seriously wounded person, either friendly or enemy, who is not expected to live or for whom medical aid cannot be obtained.
In countries that authorize executions by firing squads, a coup de grâce can be administered if the first hail of gunfire fails to kill the prisoner.
The French pronunciation of the phrase is [kudə ɡras], but many English speakers pronounce it /ˌkuː deɪ ˈɡrɑː/ which in French is spelled "coup de gras" and would mean something like "blow of fat." Omitting the final "s" is an example of a hyperforeignism.
In video games, a similar term is finishing move. However, in games like Mortal Kombat, this does not involve mercy, but is instead a gruesome way of killing a defeated opponent.
