halo reach inspired my remix of Lloyd Banks' "Beamer Benz or Bentley"

its called "Halo Gears or Duty"

check it out, but be warned there is "mature" language

Also, Reach file share page is getting a lot of full length match videos up from random players. I've been watching it because Tashi still hasn't started a game yet.
 
I don't have much time to post all of my initial impressions, but I will say that the Plasma Launcher is the most freaking awesome gun ever!!!!!
 
Congrats on the codes, guys! So jealous but happy for you. :)

edit: Still hoping for the giveaways but I'll accept any random act of kindness. :)

Wow a lot of codes going around. I wasn't really expecting one, but now that the reality of it has hit me I'm kind of sad. Aw well. Grats to the dudes that got em.
 
Aaahhh~ Tashi and the others won't be playing for a while it seems. I'm going to just play a few rounds of Halo 3 to pass the time. Still need to get my aim back anyways. :P

Us juniors... No way.
Being hopeful isn't a bad thing though... Right?

I believe its customary in some societies to let those of a younger status go first. Yes?

lol who am I kidding?


Anyone capable of setting up a stream?
 
I don't want to promise anything, but if it turns out I have a spare code in the next few hours I'm going to unleash a sort of challenge/trivia competition, exclusively for HaloGAF.

Don't give up hope.
 
I remember back when I got a halo 3 beta code, my 360 red ringed about 24% into the download. I instantly got the bus into town and bought myself a new one. I got to play 3 matches then I went on a hiking where I lost my voice. I came home the next day to only to get to play 2 more games of Halo 3 before I had to get a taxi to airport where I went on holiday for 2 weeks.

Good times.

You are so evil. :lol :lol
 
Figures I have to study in the library for an evening OChem test instead of watching the much more interesting livestreams.

Le sigh.
 
Oh my there has been a lot of pages since I went to bed. Activision deal is fine since Bungie retains IP ownership, and no F&F yet : (

Make it happen urk...I played the Halo 3 F&F beta!!! :D
 
The lucky guys finally started up - boy do the DMR and pistol headshot kills look satisfying!

Still gonna chill and hope for a code while enjoying the stream...

I just threw away my O Chem book last night/this morning.

It was ~7 years old, and I haven't used it since halfway through college.

If I have to make better haiku's than you, I'm fucked.
 
I've given up hope on fixing my ODST disk, so pretty much everything riding on the contests at the moment. Pretty sure that I entered every single contest there was.

On a side note I can now write a haiku in under 10 seconds. Believe.
 
It's weird, I got a F&F invite for the H3 beta on Bungie.net. (Not sure exactly how. Maybe because I'm an 'Xbox Ambassador') I didn't get one for the Reach beta though. I'm not expecting anything, just trying to figure out why I got one prior.

For those playing now, how is the Focus Rifle? Overpowered? Is it only in certain gametypes/maps?
