Wow. Just WOW. Idiocy is more rampant on the internet than fear of the Cheif is in Grunts.
And nearly six hundred thousand people saw it with that description. I wonder how many of them thought these were some damn talented kids.

I have to use this avatar for a bit because a great man (HI GEORGE!!) created it for me and me alone.
Its all right, I have ways of "dealing" with it. ;)

Hmm, I wonder how many pages will spring up by the time I come back tomorrow morning?

I'm guessing the Samurai one is the Hayabusa permutation mentioned earlier.

my first thought was that it resembled ryu hayabusa's headpiece thing -- maybe this is bungie's reciprocation for the spartan guest character in doa4. looks really cool, anyway -- i hope it doesn't require crazy multiplayer skill to unlock

Probably has something to do with Sword kills. :lol
 
I'm not using the default Mark VI. I haven't decided but I'm thinking Mark V, CQB, or ODST.

As for my avatar.. Kitty avatar + secondary cowboy hat option = win.
 
Oh! Also - I'm not sure if this was true, but I somewhat remember hearing that each set of armor has specific stat bonuses as well.

CAN ANYONE CONFIRM THIS BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE AMAZING

This game is all kinds of awesome.

I cunt wait!!!

I tried to squash your avatar on my screen :p

I know this is pretty obvious, but FORGE is EXACTLY what all FPSes needed to bring something fresh to the genre.

HYPED!

You have to get a good amount of EXP in MP to get the Mark V. I forget the exact number...

No because that would be the exact opposite of amazing.

3 days, 23 hours...Rage, all of us have to get together on Live and play with Forge for hours right after we beat Campaign. Are you getting your copy at midnight?

Yeah, I plan on getting it at midnight. I'm actually going to cruise down to my EB at like 12:30. I'm hoping the line won't be as bad.

The problem is I have exams on Tuesday, Thursday and Monday. So I'm not sure how much I'll be able to play this week...

Oh well. you're right. I like it where everyones armor is the same, it'd be too hard to balance.

speaking of which, I wish the game would only have one weapon for everyone, that way the game is completely about skill and not whoever has the rocket launcher/energy sword (HI HALO 2)

I'm busy everyday but all my free time will be used with this game. From midnight on to Tuesday afternoon, I plan to beat it on Heroic with a friend. Then we're going to play around with MP until I have to go to work.

Same here. Whatever free time I can spare will be spent beating the campaign.

I'd also like to get a group of people here on GAF together to eventually do co-op on legendary.
 
New Yorkers that want the game early should head down to the Wall Street area. There's a little store by the corner of Nassau Street and Fulton, right across the street from Wendy's. They should have the game in the afternoon.

Edit: This thread moves to fast so I'll repost it in the morning, or after I get my game. :D
 
So, after another day where I didn't get the chance to check in on this thread? Could anybody be so kind as to give me the Halo Thread recap of today?

Won't take long. First 2 days are all campaign. Next weekend is all multiplayer time.

By the way, anyone know if the corpse-humping physics been improved? :D

There's a new Vidoc and the Podcast is out.
 
This has probably been done to death, but I must know: was the "Believe" in the commercial a wink to GAF? From LSmith perhaps?

There's an interview with the guys who came up with the ad campaign in the OP under "Articles" where they explain it.

How much do I have to pay you to change your avatar?
Fruit flies are invading my house, so having one land on my screen is a common occurance. I've swatted at that damn avatar half a dozen times tonight already. :(

Can you find an image that you want for it? If you do, I'll make a snazzy 90x120 avy for you in no time.
