Looks like a tender kiss on the back of the neck.

Honey, I don't like when you take your gun to go play with the kids
It's alright, I brought the rattle for them to play with!
Those are Grenades
Want to do it?
Aight.

I thought we had something.. something special. Something nobody else had. I wanted to spend my entire life with you. I wanted to go to the movies with you, dance, sing, explore.. But no, you had to go out with Luke. You thought I'd never find out, huh? Well I did, Frank.. I did. So please, just sleep. And forget all of our problems.

I'm assuming the jolted lover found out by checking Franks service record and downloading the hi-res photos.

It happens to the best of us.

What the hell is your deal?

The embargo's up at noon. I think you're more excited for the fucking reviews than you are for the game.

Oh and your avatar's too big.

 

[FiRez]

maybe this is useless but anyway:

can anyone please upload the attract video of Halo 3 (the one that appears when you leave the game idle in the main menu)

 

[goldenpp72]

For once I think im fortunate to live in a more remote area, I don't THINK i'll have much trouble getting my copy on tuesday morning

 

[Vyse The Legend]

I'm sure someone has mentioned this, but since I played the game before the new Bungie.net went live, my achievements all say this: "Date Earned: Monday, January 01, 1753" :lol

Oooh Are we going to play the number game again?!

Awesome. :lol

 

[AndersTheSwede]

I have an exam Tuesday....so yeah.

BUT, I already have a job for when I graduate so it's really not that important.

Same for the first.

Not for the second.

 

[darkressurection]

LOLOLOL

We're getting close to page 343!

9.6 = whirled peas

9.4 = worldwide anarchy, dogs and cats, weeping and wailing, cancelled pre-orders, down but not accross

[Insaniac]

man why couldn't it release on friday

 

[Buttonbasher]

man why couldn't it release on friday

Tuesday is the new friday. Old Friday is 1up.com. Monday is 1 day away.

 

[Havok]

man why couldn't it release on friday

Agreed. Midweek releases for stuff that I reeeally want is so aggravating, because I really can't afford to just take off.

 

[armubaba]

I'm predicting mixed positive reviews all around the board. Gertsmann will 9.0 or (gasp!) 8.5 it, and riots will ensue. I'm thinking everywhere else the scores will be scattered around the 9.3-9.7 range. Whatever happens, this is GAF, and it is bound to be interesting.

Those of you who don't have the game and want to experiment with the different armor permutations, here's a nifty little program that lets you do just that. It's basically what you can do in Halo 3 in terms of customizing your Spartan. So you can keep yourself busy with that in wait of Halo 3.

Needs .Net Framework 2.0, so if you don't have that you cand download it below.

[MaizeRage25]

It's really kinda weird to sit back and think about how close we are. Seems like this game will never come out...then I remember people are playing it RIGHT NOW.

 

[ferrex]

You know, you're right. Tuesday is lame.

Everyone, we're pushing it back to Friday!

 

[traveler]

If all the reviews go to that other thread, this thread won't make my 20,000 prediction before launch.

 

[Tieno]

Oh shit, via that program I just saw that here's a Hayabusa armor 'Player Chest' with a katana on his back.

Something tells me we'll get close.

And the other thread is bait. Don't fall for it.

Toggle between them. I think it's background.

We're only 3 thousand away. Holy crap.

i'm kind of unstable. think of the people around me

It's all fun and games until someone at MS goes, "Hey someone at Bungie said to push it till friday"
Then all of a sudden you see "9.28.07 Believe"

This thread had over a thousand posts all of Saturday. So averaging 1500 posts between today and Monday will be a cake walk, given the heightened anticipation of everyone getting the game.

 

[Domino Theory]

Mine for Halo 3 MP (can't wait ):

Don't toy with my fragile emotions. Its not as fun on this end

 

[whatdidyousay]

Why the hell can't I get online? I can't start matchmaking because it says info can't be retrieved from the Halo 3 server or something...

 

[Router]

I kinda wished I got the Legendary edition now... Its damn good looking.

 

[Xamdou]

Is there clan support for Halo 3? And how does the "Groups" feature at Bungie.net work?

 

[Lt Cola]

Is it just me, or is black not an option to choose from?

 

[Blueblur1]

One more sleeps. Only one more.

 

[darkressurection]

One more sleeps. Only one more.

There can only be one.

 

[GhaleonEB]

Is it just me, or is black not an option to choose from?

It's not. It would be too much of an advantage in the darker areas of maps.

 

[Router]

:lol :lol :lol :lol

 

[Havok]

One more sleeps. Only one more.

Not if Mr. "Don't Blame Me For the Library!" has his sick, sadistic way.

Maybe you've been banhammered for playing it early


Nah, since the game is not officially launching until monday night they are probably taking the time to do last minute tweaking. I know the website code has under gone 2 or 3 hotfixes on saturday alone.

No clan support. Not too sure about the groups feature.

Ahhhh. I want to use this, but I'm only getting a broken image icon (red 'X').

I have .Net Framework 2.0 and everything.

Nevermind, I was just running the program, not saving it before.

 

[GhaleonEB]

I'm actually surprised the unique players only went up about a thousand over the course of the day. It's at 11,912 now, and was about 11k this morning. I thought a lot more copies would make their way out into the wild.

But...aren't there other people playing multiplayer already?? Or are the servers only going live on release day?
