Mountain Dew double xp website is being rocked right about now. Got a chance to redeem some codes but can't apply them to my account or nominate prize entries.

However, reading the terms and conditions it seems the sweepstakes aren't being drawn until February next year... So at this point it really is for the double exp.

Three sleeps until Fincher/Miller TV spot.

Also, Mexico City is rad. Although giant failure at dinner last night where we asked to go to a cook Mexican restaurant and the concierge sent us to a fancy French place because its brand includes the term "French food in Mexico." We were too tired to go elsewhere.

Any particular event the spot is debuting in/on? Thursday night football or something?

How can you possibly spoil a menu? You've seen it at PAX and Eurogames...

Look at this way: by giving people the choice to decide for themselves whether to see a screenshot from a leaked version of the game (one directly related to campaign), you show that you have good judgment & actually give a damn about the people you're ostensibly trying to have a conversation with.

Not bitter, just unsweetened
I say refrain from outright posting images of final content as it may impair someone's experience

Link to it, sure.

It's been over 5 years since halo 3. That's longer than the time halo was announced by Steve jobs at Macworld and the halo 2 release date.

Some people would prefer to savor the experience. " oh it's just the menu" "oh, it's just the prologue" "oh, it's just the first couple minutes of the game" it goes on and on

Halo menus always have a soft spot for me, especially with the music.

It sets the tone.

You have to use a little tact when you're in the community thread because everyone is trying their best to avoid spoilers of any kind while still trying to discuss thing.

(Mind you, I have already seen the menu, the prologue and the first couple minutes of the game.... I prefer that I didn't)

MS just took down our cam footage from NYCC, sweet.

The BTS youtube is down as well.

It's unfortunate but I suspect at this point they've had to resort to automated match & block to prevent spoilers. At some point human review of every clip in advance is not possible; hopefully, though, someone is going back to review them after the fact.

I just translated the Halo CEA codes, which you enter in the Forerunner console.

Chronological order, from code 1 to code 10: 343gs, halo4, spark, flood, earth, demon, rings, array, human and haven.

Haven was already mentioned in this code, makes me wonder, if it was already a sure thing, that Haven is becoming the map Haven.

I'm still trying to figure out, what the word could be with the Forerunner letter "c", which was given in the BTS Video, but I'm running out of ideas...
 
Yeah it only came across as a spoiler thanks to people jumping onto it to say that. Spoiler tagging the flippin' name of it now stops me from thinking about it innocuously and is making me try and extrapolate the meaning. Damn you.
