Rumor is 2014 now for steam version. Remember they didn't shut the Halo 2 servers down when they extended it.

WUT?

Really hope it's true

 

[J10]

I can't download this shit with a trial card, can I?

 

[-PXG-]

I man. It's been too long. I had plans to get work done tomorrow night. Welp...THAT'S NOT HAPPENING NOW!

 

[Deleted member 1235]

oh neat. I purchased all the map packs ages ago then sold halo 3... so I download em now I should still have them right?

 

[MrDaravon]

Was actually kinda surprised when I booted up the game up finally (after ~2 hours to download the game plus all the DLC) that there was no title update.

I can't download this shit with a trial card, can I?

No, it has to be a proper sub (aka 1-month or more). Check the last page for a 30-day trial that should work if you're a silver member though.

oh neat. I purchased all the map packs ages ago then sold halo 3... so I download em now I should still have them right?

Yes, you'll have to find them in the Marketplace then it should just say Download Again instead of the purchase option if you've bought them before.

 

[Mix]

Thank you, Microsoft. Thank you Bungie for the great game, and I hope 343 really looks at this as how Halo 5 should be/feel.

 

[Pop]

Got a free 1 month, time for some H3!

 

[statham]

Yeah I'll join once it hits Steam. I let my Gold expire in like April and stored away my 360. Dammit it's painful to read all this tho. Halo 3 was one of my favorite vidyas ever.

They got banned for opening multiple tabs to accept the offer and stack more than one month.

 

[Ominym]

It isn't.

Bungie was kind enough in their day to make some of the DLC free, though. I think the other pieces you would need to buy are $5, total, I believe.

 

[Computron]

Should be in Op.

Is

 

[Revson]

Downloading now. Will definitely try and get some playtime in this week, love this game.

 

[Salvor.Hardin]

Love this game. I don't think I had ever experienced a more complete package than what Bungie delivered with Halo 3. Everything from Forge to video capturing to the little details and easter eggs made this game feel nextgen compared to all other console shooters. The multiplayer is god-tier.

If you haven't played this game as yet and you have a 360, well what the hell are you waiting for??

 

[Zoolader]

That was weird, I saw that too, went to the previous page and came back and they loaded the actual screenshots.

Word, I see them now.

MOAR PICS GET HYPED!!!

 

[Professor Renegade]

I still have my disc copy, no need to download.

 

[akira28]

eh what the hell, I'll whip out my old disc.

 

[TheUnsunghero26]

Even if you already have the disc (like most of us I'm assuming) you could still at least download and cancel, so you have it in your purchase history and can re-download it for free any time you want.

 

[Tesseract]

thanks for the free month and game. activated, canceled, disabled auto renew. eat my shorts, microsoft.

oh haro 3, i missed ye.

 

[akira28]

Lone Wolf, bitches.

 

[feel]

Got Team BRs on Guardian on the previous match and now it's loading Team BRs on The Pit. AAAAWWWWW YYIIISSSSS

 

[Mass Effect]

Time to relive the glory days of XBL.

Out of curiosity, what was the [peak] population for today?

 

[mr teaspoon]

Awesome, I could definitely use more GAFers on my XBL friends list. Please add me and I'll be on the next few nights (CST).

XBL: mister teaspoon

 

[killer rin]

All Aboard the Halo Hype Train:

WOOoOO WOOO!!!!

HALO 3 WOOO WOOO

 

[Stinkles]

Got Team BRs on Guardian on the previous match and now it's loading Team BRs on The Pit. AAAAWWWWW YYIIISSSSS

I might jump in.

 

[smokeymicpot]

Awesome now I gotta wait for it to download.

 

[Casanova]

If anyone wants to play doubles 45-50 or MLG let me know

EDIT: Actually, I'm down for anything. This game is toooo good - just as I remembered it.

: }

So happy about the returning hype for this game. Does anyone expect the population for this game to surpass Halo 4's?

 

[BraXzy]

I might jump in.

Come on guys, I really need to finish a work project, don't make me boot up Halo!

 

[Stinkles]

oh neat. I purchased all the map packs ages ago then sold halo 3... so I download em now I should still have them right?

yep

 

[GECK]

Down for customs/MM or whatever (gt in profile)

So happy about the returning hype for this game. II certainly won't be upset if the population for this game surpasses Halo 4 ; )

I'll play dubs.

Send a fr at Defective 2.

its a free mp game. It will definitely surpass h4 on live.

 

[Hubble]

Halo 3 MLG game type is the best strategic multiplayer shooter out. The amount of teamwork required, calling the call outs, and timing the power ups and weapons with the maps is the best team shooter out. I can't believe since Halo 3, the maps in the future Halos sucked ass.

 

[Emperor Bohe]

Playing the game for the first time in years, this game is still really fun. It's no halo 2, but I'll take what can get haha.

You might need to buy the dlc to get full enjoyment of multiplayer though.

 

[Plywood]

Best 360 Halo.

 

[Casanova]

its a free mp game. It will definitely surpass h4 on live.

I don't think price is the only reason.

 

[Defect]

I don't think price is the only reason.

Yeah. I expect it to be maybe in the top 5 most played this month.

 

[Scooby]

The maps should have also been free

 

[SpartanN92]

I might jump in.

Frankie, you have no idea how delighted I am that you are reading this thread.

Love seeing 343/Community interaction.

 

[Zoolader]

Frankie we all love Halo 3, release it on PC and everybody wins!

 

[vasametropolis]

Weird is that Frankie's GAF? I always assumed it woulda have just been Frankie like his username back on bnet all those years ago when I read every damn update before Halo 2 came out. Man that forum community has taken a piss, let me tell you. The waypoint forums too.

 

[Emperor Bohe]

They should update the playlists and condense it a bit. The player base is going to be spread too thin.. There are too many playlists.

 

[ThatsMytrunks]

Halo 3 killed my social life in high school. I regret nothing.

Halo 1 2 and 3 cultivated mine. We had the best times playing those. Though the advent of XBL kinda ruined lan parties.

Can't wait to play again. It used to be so much fun.
