pic says it all


With all of these people getting the game early, it makes me tempted to ask around and see if I can pick it up

Finger says win. Tv says Fail.
 
What a shitty television. And this is the time when I hate Microsoft. The games are all at retailers, some are already being sold, but no....they're going to stick to the release date. They had a flash of brilliance with Gears of War. Have a set date where the festivities will happen, but retailers can sell the game whenever it gets in.

HolyStar, you might find some useful info here (Maybe): Halo Wikia

You've got a little interest in finding more info on this as well. Though, I presume there isn't much.. there will plenty of patches and tweaks to change all that.


Thanks for the help. Anyway, I wonder if you could duel weild energy swords in this one (like have one block and the other attack)

That would make me the happiest person on the planet.

As would the other 2+ million people who are stuck reading the interwebs and seeing punks talk crap about getting the game early. Oh well...not a whole lot we can do.

Unfortunately here in the UK a game is never sold before it's intended release.
It use to happen now and again for the dreamcast and early ps2 era, but its much stricter now, sucks then other places get it early due to luck or friends who sell a copy early and get away with it.

Supermarkets break release dates all the time.

They're like new indie shops :P

Also we have to wait an extra three days of ;_;

I remember going into Game two days before the release of Halo 2, and the employees preceded to tell me they had not gone home and had slept in the store to play...

I was so annoyed I nearly tore the shop up.

Have a Pio 4280 here and it's great.

It almost makes me sick to my stomach to think people will try to play Halo 3 on SD. Seriously, what is even the point? pathetic

You're clearly playing Halo for all the wrong reasons. I would play this game on a 13 inch black and white if it was my only option.
 
Judging by the wanna be expression on his face and the intellectual gesture on his hand I'm relatively certain that this kid is the pillar of good behavior in the Live community.

Well...yeah, probably.
 
Woohoo! Just got back from paying off my reserved cat helmet at GameStop!

Lair even got me $42 trade-in credit, thanks to the 30% bonus trade in for Halo 3 deal, and an extra 10% from the Edge card! Not bad, methinks, as far as trade in values go.

And what the hell, where are these people getting copies of the game?

What is this edge card you speak of
 
Uh oh, this is apparently a cap from the french version of the game.
Apparently its a cutscene with french subtitles..

And it has been confirmed, Truth is Master Chiefs father.

We're making fun of people who have Halo 3 early.

The fun!

Lair for Halo 3? Not bad indeed.
 
8 days.

Hey Stinkles, I made something cool for work involving Mister Chief. Needless to say, everyone coming to get the game will get to know Mr. Chief well. Will have pics soon.

It's the deal where you get 10% more trade in value, 10% off used games, and 12 issues of Game Informer, for $15 a year. GameStop / EB Games.

And you can use it WITH the 30% bonus trade in on Halo 3. I actually finished The Darkness today and traded that in too... sonofabitch achievement for finishing the game didn't even unlock, and then I read about the glitch. I hate you The Darkness.

Sounds worth it for the 12 GI issues alone.
 
My Entry to the thread contest.

Story: My ladyfriend and I made 4 posters with different NeoGAF/Halo things on them. Then we went around town taking pictures of her holding them in odd places. Then I decided that it might not be art-y enough so I made a duct tape Mister Chief Head and put it over her face in all of the pics. If you can't read a certain part, just ask.

All taken by camera-phone, sorry.

:D
