I'm going to tell your mum when I see her later.

Jesus really ? Just like every other guy in this thread, I have pre-ordered it. I would just like the satisfaction of knowing these arseholes can't play online.

They get their consoles banned, unless they circumvented the way Microsoft checks for pirated games.

Meddow, please shut up.

Halo 2 leaked online two days after it went gold last time around. At least this is a big improvement.

Pirates suck.

For a few bucks more they'll do quite a bit more.
 
The Pirates didn't win at all...they had to wait till some UK dealers broke the street event, no gold master was stolen a month before it was in retail.

I am. I was in that Gamestop tonight picking up Growlanser. The manager said based on responses from their outbound calls (that I got last week), they're expecting 150ish people to show up, plus however many non-preorder people show up, which probably won't be a huge amount. I confirmed that it WILL be catered (one of their regulars owns a catering business, so they help each other out or something apparently), and the live band is going to be heavy metal. There's no way I CAN'T go to this, I must take pics.
 
Have any of you watched the DVD stuff yet? I want to know all of Bungie's little secrets.

I have so many burning Bungie questions:

1. Does Frankie have laser eyes?
2. Do they spread "win sauce" on their ham sandwiches instead of mayo?
3. Does Luke REALLY whore the long rifle?

Not to mention campaign scoring, replays, screen shots and stat tracking.
There is too much stuff to do in this game. Is it possible to have a panic attack when you turn it on from being overwhelmed with options?:lol

1,2,3. Yes. Did that all in my head.

Yes. Yes, that is possible.

I bet your mental wallpaper is Brimley's grimacing face, carefully watching us all from his intergalactic death-glider. If only we could turn your head into a nickelodeon for all to see, the world would be a better place.

Question about campaign:
Have you unlocked any of the terminals yet? I haven't played the game so I don't want details but do they divulge any information about the Halo universe.

Quite possibly.

I really don't know what I'll do first. Probably cry at the all the HD awesomeness.

Playing campaign co-op with my Dad will be so cool. He's actually a pretty good player. We only get to play co-op on occasion, but now it can be more regular. I'm pretty proud of the old man, not bad at all for a 62 year old.

My ears are vivid gateways into the world I'm living in.

"I want my applesauce....I mean Halo 3."

Just kidding man, your Dad sounds awesome.
 
Is the split-screen horizontal like the beta or vertical like Halo 2? If its horizontal are there black bars on the side (like the beta)?

Only one. And alone, it wasn't enough to mean anything to me. Maybe once I add to it, it'll make sense.
 
I just watched ALL the Halo 3 videos I had on my 360 from the Marketplace:

Announcement Trailer
First TV Ad
Making of John 117 Monument
Believe Ad
Museum Ad
Brute Vid-Doc
E3 07 Trailer

WOW. I'm so super frickin' hyped for this game. I swear to god I'm thinking way way WAY too much about it. Those videos have me all worked up into a lather....

Hose me down, GAF. Hose me down. :lol

Nope, it's the multiplayer.
And that's what I like about this game. For you, it's multiplayer. Between Forge and the new Custom options (player traits FTW) it will never get old.

Me? Online co-op, skulls and Campaign Scoring FTW. Oh, and I'll dabble in MP as well. And saved films and the b.net features. And

*head explodes*

Totally agree.
 
Burger said:
No idea. Can thieves play their stolen warez on Xbox Live or do they get banned like the original Xbox ?
They can if they're very, very careful, although that could change at any time. Microsoft used the Beta to lure lots of people out of hiding before unleashing their first round of flashed DVD firmware detection bannings.

Mind going a bit more into that (unless that would 'incriminate' yourself, etc)?
Has
Terminals
been mentioned by Bungie? As far as I know, you can't unlock them while in a co-op game. I tried when I had a friend over for split-screen, and it didn't work when I pressed RB. If you do it by yourself
you're treated to a nice effect when accessing the terminal, and some information, Marathon-style (I presume, haven't really played it. Don't shoot!).

I sign this post as the truth.

They were mentioned in the leaked achievements but I don't think bungie has officially talked about them so I wouldn't go into them without spoilers. I'm definitely looking forward to them though.

Thanks, and like DocterWho said outside of the achievements they haven't been mentioned yet, aka why I asked. :)

Newegg has given me a tracking code. My legendary edition will be here tomorrow by 10:30.
:D :D :D
DAMMIT ;_;

dirtbag, if i weren't at school in a different city i'd be hitting you up for your name and address right now!
 
traveler said:
What?!?!?

Tomorrow is going to prove most interesting. Does the tracking number confirm the item has shipped? Tracking numbers don't usually tell you when your product will actually arrive, only that your product is in transit.
