I don't see that option. I'm looking by clicking on my gamertag and going Account Management. I don't see "personal settings" anywhere. Am I looking in the right place?

Don't click your gamertag, just use the Xbox Guide button on the controller, and you should see the option in the menu that comes up.

If I disconnected my 360 from the net, would a friend request still get through if it was sent before I detatched?

Nah, I think you're safe. I can't see any of my friends now that it's disconnected.

I love how the 700 last posts in this thread have been the same 10 guys acting like schoolgirls about spoilers. Get a grip.

Also a new thread will have to be created once the game comes out , this thread is completly useless thanks to your nancies.

GTFO.

Do you wish to be spoiled? It's not as great as it sounds.

So in the past few hours, what have I missed?

Some people are douchebags and shouldn't be let anywhere near a computer/360.

If you've disconnected before you recieve it, you'll probably be fine because I assume that the messages are sent immediately after the person hits send. If not...you aren't safe. NOBODY is safe. Get someone who doesn't care (like your boss AHEM, ALLEN, GET OVER HERE AND GET ON MY PROFILE K THX) to delete it for you. Then disconnect.
 
Well shit. I think I just figured out the spoiler. A combination of knowing that a GamerTag has it in it, and seeing the commercials. Damn. Well, hopefully I can keep guessing until I get there for myself. :(

Really wish they wouldn't have revealed so much in those goddamn commercials.

Wow, I never knew those options were there. That's a weird place to park them, away from all the other options. Thanks.
 
I have been so busy with classes I have not properly checked the thread since Sunday night. I was thinking about catching up this morning, but then I heard the thread had been infected with spoilers. Should I quit GAF until I finish Halo 3? I want your sincere recomendation guys.

If you want to be safe, than yes, quit.

It doesn't take much for someone to come in here and post spoilers before it can be cleaned up.

the thread is a daily gamble. but it helps me pass the time till game day.

thing is, anyone with an account that was planning on spoiling it.. probably would have already as the ending is clearly out there. the only thing that can be spoiled is everyone dropping these childish little hints trying to be cute. If I get spoiled at this point, I can say I tried my best.
 
Like I said earlier. It is one little tid bit of information amongst the vast amount of answers that I'm looking for from Halo 3. In fact, this wasn't the most important piece of information for me.

It's a pretty good idea to, but Live was what got so many of us, not GAF. (Although GAF did get hit two nights ago- the mods cleaned up though)

where is this from? D:
 
I don't know if I missed it from one of the beta threads or this giant thread, but I have some questions about Halo 3.

1.Is the rocket lock-on still in the game, and if it is, do vehicles have something to counter it?

2.Has the human sniper rifle been changed at all?

3. Other than getting ammo, any other changes to the sword?

4. How effective is the assault rifle now?

5. How did all the Wilford Brimley stuff start? :lol

Well, thats it. I do have the will to quit GAF, for Halo 3 everything is possible. You guys are playing with fire. Take care. See you when I finish the game.

1. Nope, only for airborne vehicles

2. There is a slight delay on the shot, and it takes a bit longer between shots

3. It's slower to take out, harder to lunge from too far away

4. It's awesome. It just feels right.

5. Since the advent of time itself, son.

So.. my brother-in-law managed to snag me a copy. I'm starting it up now and only plan on playing for a few minutes since I want to finish Bioshock before I start this. If anyone wants any impressions or pics just tell me or PM me.

I'm sure its a joke from G4 or something. Didn't you see the one of the Chief dancing with that hottie? From the same place.
 
Alright I just unchecked everything from the Personal Settings, but does that mean I won't get the message ? For example:

I'm playing a game and my friend wants to play with me so he sends me a game invite. Will it just go straight to my messages ? Or will I not be able to play with him at all ?

I am staying here no matter what, if I left it would be like leaving my friends behind on a battlefield.
You didnt have Halo 2 spoiled to you. It happened to me and I remember I bashed my monitor with one of my speakers because of the rage I felt. It was one of the saddest moment of my life. I will not go through it again.

Yeah I did, went to Amazon to check out Halo 2 prices. I scroll down and BAM fucking ending of the game right in my face.

Replaying Halo 1. Can I run this in widescreen? The 360 is set to widescreen, but Halo is 4:3.

I don't know how it works for a HDTV, but I have my 360 hooked up to my widescreen monitor through VGA, and in order to play halo 1 in widescreen I have to set the resolution to 640x480. Any higher resolution and the screen defaults to 4:3. Hope this helps.
