MS will eventually get around to banning you if you have a pirated copy. Store bought copies are fine.

 

[The Elite]

HAs anyone seen the custom halo 360? :O

It looks good but will it overheat?

 

[CaptWinky]

I want that mod, I don't care about the price

an has anyone seen any of the blieve ads on tv?

I haven't seen anything I thought they were blowing like 5million on ads?

know of any sites with every ad out?

 

[Buttonbasher]

Where's the Last Live Action short? Coming before launch?

 

[VenusandBacchus]

thanks I have a chance to get it early but if I can't play online its not worth it

 

[TDG]

Welcome back, TDG. Unofortunately, my launch plans are kind of screwed now and some real life problems have made my hype subside. I hope I feel better tomorrow.

Thank you. Well, I hope your launch plans turn out okay. As it turns out, I'm willing to sacrifice my money but not time for Halo 3, as I will NOT be neglecting my responsiblilities for Halo 3 on Tuesday, though I will buy a new console to play it.

I heard it was Monday. So tomorrow.

That's really awesome.

I can't believe I'll be waiting to pick up my copy tomorrow. I'm almost numb to the whole situation. Well, atleast until I have the LE box in my hands. Then OMG, the unvieling of the helmet casing and seeing it in person will be epic.

He is talking about the Blomenkamp stuff. There is also one more Museum style spot coming around October 1st.

[HolyStar]

Be a thief for the Chief.

I will not touch the 360 until I get Halo 3 tomarrow. I finished playing my final online game (I won like 50-29) so I guess all the good people traded it in already.

 

[got2bekidding]

I wonder what kind of games Ars Technica does like.

 

[alexh]

I'm scared out of my mind because I dropped $85 to have Halo 3 Limited Edition shipped to me via next day shipping on Gamestop.com.

I got bioshock at 11 on the release day... should be fine.

 

[GodfatherX]

i have 4 more hours of work tonight, sleep, then work 4 to midnight tom....hoping to get off early

if im at work my full shift tom...it will be the longest day in my working life

I'm going to need to change my shorts

hnicntacp is the gamertag

This fall air and excitement reminds me of the Halo 2 launch

It seems like every minute, every hour is going by SO SLOOOOOOW now.

Ars Technica needs to be beaten for giving the Campaign in Halo 3 a 7 and the one in Gears a 9.

that should be brought up in the review thread. it's the only thing the haters have been able to hold onto at this point.

 

[voltron]

Seriously? Whoa...

Fucking ridiculous. I guarantee none of these reviewers played on Heroic too, which already gives the Halo 3 a disadvantage.

 

[StriKeVillain]

that should be brought up in the review thread. it's the only thing the haters have been able to hold onto at this point.

There's still haters? Like real haters or PS3 fanboy haters?

I have three more sleeps until I get the game. Look on the bright side -- you're not me.

Not impressed by your spelling of 'slow'. It looks like 'sloooooow' in HD.

Any haters will buy Halo 3 as soon as they see everyone on their friends list playing it nonstop the entire first week..

No this one. From the reviews thread:

No, he doesn't. Ars obviously wanted some controversy with their review.

What's this nonsense?

 

[GDJustin]

So I decided I might NOT be able to just walk in and buy a copy tuesday morning, and opted to go to my local EB Games and see if I could still preorder a copy this late.

The guy checks the system to see if every copy they've received has been preordered or not, and lets me know that I'm in luck. They still have 10 or so copies left.

I place my preorder, and the guy says "Know what preorder number you are?"

"Ha, what number?"

"Number 510."


Hoooly shit. This is at a small EB games in a small mall, about 30-40 minutes south of San Francisco. FIVE HUNDRED AND TEN preorders, at this one small location. It's unbelievable to me that 1) This small EB Games received over 500 preorders and 2) Their initial Halo 3 shipment is over 500 copies.

I knew Halo 3 was going to be big... bu tmy god. It truly IS going to crush all.

 

[GodfatherX]

im trying to not read reviews until i beat the game, so im staying clear of the review thread

could someone who read the Ars review give a spoiler free summary on why they didnt like the game
