I've randomly been dying to see Spirited Away again. It's been like six years since I last saw it.

I've meant to watch that for a long time now. It's on Netflix instant streaming I think, so I don't really have much of an excuse for not seeing it now that I think about it

wait, just checked and no it's not. I guess it's another Ghibli film on Netflix I'm thinking of

 

[HigherLevel]

My Legendary edition of Reach is supposed to arrive tomorrow. I'm pretty pumped for it

And yes, I'm trying to change the subject lol

edit:


I saw Moneyball not too long ago and liked it quite a bit

How'd you find a copy? They only made like 50 copies of the Legendary edition for the people who pre-ordered the second it was available.

It's amazing. It captured my imagination in a way no other film has since. And I first saw it when I was 20, haha.

I got burnt out on it, and like I said, it's been about five or six years since I saw it last. I've actually forgotten chunks of the plot. It's nice when that happens, cause it feels like you're getting to know an old friend again (movies r friendz, lol). That's why I want to replay Halo 2, if only I could get the PC version to work...

I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic.

 

[Franklinator]

nevermind, apparently you were sarcastic

 

[Fracas]

I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic.

Lol yeah, just sharing it if anyone thinks it's a good deal.

In other news, you can seriously still buy copies of Madden 12 HoF Edition? EA swore up and down it wouldn't be available after the day it came out.
Just like Reach actually.

 

[Voltron64]

I heard even Bungie employees had to line up to preorder their own copies. There wasn't enough to go around.

 

[HigherLevel]

nevermind, apparently you were sarcastic

Haha yeah. I remember how they said they'd really be limited unlike Halo 3 Legendary and one of my friends was going crazy to pre-order in time. I didn't because I knew I could find one cheap later on.

A Bungie employee just fist pumped and clicked on Add to Cart.

dammit late to the joke

 

[ElRenoRaven]

I'm pretty sure he was being sarcastic.

Yea he was. That still burns me though. MS promised that this wouldn't be the Halo 3 cat helmet all over again and they went and did the same goddamn thing a second time. That's why assuming I like Halo 4 and they have a "Legendary" Edition, I won't be wasting my money on it. I'll buy regular or wait till I can find Halo 4 Legendary Edition for 50 bucks.

Only if you stop being dumb

Ok fine I was dumb too but that's not my point

Good luck, cause I'm gonna buy all 50 of them and then retire early

love

you guys.

EDIT:I don't think he'd get it though, he's busy showing off your most anticipated game to your friends.

Spoiler

Too soon?

 

[ncsuDuncan]

dat brown nosing

Nah, I just like being mean to Letters.

Spoiler

We can hug it out after the embargo lifts.

-------
Today I had someone at my apartment point to my Halo 3 Legendary Cat-Helmet and ask if it was wearable. "No! Don't you know how rare those are?"

 

[VivaciousJazzy]

Wow been gone all day and have seen nothing eventful or new besides Walshy stuff that I expected.

Kids on waypoint mad. Assuming halo 4 reveal will happen and get sad and stuff when it doesnt....

Spoiler

Embargo will not save you

Anything interesting in the sparkcast? Going to give it a listen soon.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

So wait did I miss something? Are some members here getting to see shit early or something? I'm lost. I was busy playing Twisted Metal and not reading thread. lol

 

[Homeboyd]

Urk, check your B.net PM's

Spoiler

Seriously

Also, I wonder if employees (or even B.net mods) have their B.net accounts linked to their phones via the app with push notifications on. Can't even imagine how many times their phones buzz due to PMs.

 

[Kibbles]

Sup, dudes?

No, just Devo trolling anxious Gaffers. Nothing to see here.

(Although a new 343 podcast was posted.)

 

[Ramirez]

Will some BK get on to fill out our team.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Oh interesting. I'll have to download it in my itunes and listen tomorrow.

 

[kittens]

Nothing especially interesting. Some fun insight on happenings in the studio, but no solid details. Teasing, bald jokes, etc. It was a good listen, just not the OMG FINALLY info we're all desperate for.

 

[Kibbles]

Waiting another week won't be so bad, already waited forever.

 

[Homeboyd]

Anything interesting in the sparkcast? Going to give it a listen soon.

As others have noted, not a whole lot going on. They talked about a campaign level being near complete (dat ship status), discussed approaching a "multiplayer milestone," and said they'd bring the sparkast team back in March because "they'd have more to discuss then."

So.. yeah. That's pretty much it.

Waiting another week won't be so bad, already waited forever.

Post of the page day week month year FOREVER.

...

Damn. Anyone in these areas? Probably not able to post now if you were... it's breaking news on most of the news channels now.

 

[Hypertrooper]

It's painful to check out some Halo threads at GAF. Damn.

If they even have them linked, they much turn off notifications. It'd be crazy town.

 

[TheOddOne]

Going in on the podcast. Also, since waking up HaloGAF has been producing a lot of salt. Guess, it will be our main source of export for the coming months.

Oh yeah, and happy b-day OddOne!

Happy birthday!

Happy birthday you powerhouse hatin' freak.

Nah, but seriously, Happy birthday OddOne.

Happy Birthday OddOne, <3!

Happy Bday OddOne!

Thanks, you guys are awesome <3

Happy Birthday TheNormalOne.

Lets hope we all can see something soon. So I take it we won't get a Bulletin tonight? Sad.

So if the average, run of the mill Bulletin is a day late, we should be getting this one in early April right?

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

Dun worry, next week's will be more packed anyhoo.

I <3 you.

Now to go into cryo sleep for the next few days.

 

[kittens]

Watch it be more gun noises, lol. Or a 10 second music clip.

A beta would be my one exception to media blackout. But... how would I find out about it? :-O

 

[GhaleonEB]

Good games, Heckfu. My first real ones on the Anniversary Classic playlist.

Spoiler

My last ones on the Anniversary Classic playlist.

Dun worry, next week's will be more packed anyhoo.

Suddenly a thousand GAFers cried out in delight, and then quietly fapped.


Thanks. <3

About as stealthy as a frag grenade going off.

Your bday is the first?

 

[Steelyuhas]

"NEXT WEEK HALO 4 BETA LAUNCH! IT'S YOUR TIME TO TO TEABAG DAVID ELLIS IN A WHOLE NEW GAME."

Not to get a unstoppable and in all likelihood false hype train rolling, but if they are going to do a public beta, I think it would be cool if they didn't announce it, and then one day, "hey guys public beta to download tomorrow, have fun."

The podcast was an enjoyable listen today even though they couldn't really speak directly. A bit of faith renewed in Halo 4 not being afraid to be 343's new vision based on what they said.

Suddenly a thousand GAFers cried out in delight, and then quietly fapped.

Quietly?! How dare you underestimate HaloGAF like that!

 

[TheOddOne]

Your bday is the first?

Yep, my birthday is March the first.

That transition in the podcast is the funniest thing ever

 

[FyreWulff]

Yea he was. That still burns me though. MS promised that this wouldn't be the Halo 3 cat helmet all over again and they went and did the same goddamn thing a second time. That's why assuming I like Halo 4 and they have a "Legendary" Edition, I won't be wasting my money on it. I'll buy regular or wait till I can find Halo 4 Legendary Edition for 50 bucks.

At the time, it was. Then MS ordered another run after the Reach Legendaries were almost depleted.

Should have suspected they were going to do that after they didn't number the statues. Oh well, it was the last Legendary edition I was going to get anyway.

For new page: 4v4 2-split maps for Team Slayer that also happen to support Oddball, CTF, and Flag.

Spoiler

If you don't like some of the maps in Team Slayer, now's a good time to get them replaced.

 

[Demoncarnotaur]

These next few days will be fun. Painful, but fun.

So anyways, did we ever figure out what was up with this?

Hm, now that I think of it, I wonder if the pre-built the system to accept new videos in case they go a similar route with Halo 4 and other future games. That would be nice to have access to all video terminals from different games in one place.

 

[Hey You]

Obviously Armor Lock isn't in H4 or I would have been invited to give input as well.

Oh I know that. That's the reason it pisses me off so much. Here they were actually going to keep their promise then in the name of making more money decided nah fuck our promise.
