WTF why does Activision get to decide when to announce Bungie's game. :/

That wasn't Activision, that was Microsoft. Don Mattrick was flexing his muscles. (Notice the date - 2008.)

Yup. That was the great MS bitch slap of Bungie 08. It's ok though cause right after that Bungie chopped off Microsoft's manhood in the night and throw it out the window. lol

Not necessarily. it could be referring to Xbox Live developers or people who develop things like the Havok engine... maybe lol

Nah I do think that means what it says. Let's be honest if the Halo: CE remake exist then a third party is doing it. Also I can see a future Halo Wars title using one of the studios formed from the ashes of Ensemble and they have used third party studios for map packs several times. Prime example being the most recent Certain Affinity made ones for Reach. They also made 2 maps for Halo 2 at the same time remember.

Yeah, that was the ODST reveal, wasn't it?

Yes it was. They had been building up by having the Superintendent making posts on Bungie.net and other sites. They had a countdown and all too.

PLOWIN THROUGH HELL BABY!

I was at work thinking about the CE remake (It's happening), and if it doesn't have matchmaking, I'd love to at least have custom games for multiplayer. No forge, no firefight. Just online custom games. I'm so fucking pumped now.

Dat magnum.
I miss her

edit: So excited for E3. Last summer E3 was so fucking awesome. I remember checking the bungie forums every day waiting for forge and firefight details and campaign gameplay.

Holy shit when I saw this I freaked out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iWyoxv_V8o

When they started panning up at the saber I was like, "no fucking way we're flying that thing."

Edit 2: When they release this with HD graphics at e3 next week, you know you're gonna freak out

I freaked out, when Marcus had showed the Saber part of LNoS. Damn. I really got a Crimsons Skies/Star Fox vibe from it. I hope 343i will announce something. I don't want to be disappointed.

I'll be shocked if they don't. Two more days to find out, though. :D

I got an assignment at work that needs to be wrapped by noon. To accommodate watching the conference at work, I'm going to finish it Sunday night. E3 has me working on the weekend. :lol

I wish Arena had the jackpot all the time, search times without it are rdicilously long. Hopefully, many players have experienced that it isn't too bad and will stick around.

Bungie or 343 should explain how arena works though. Many of my friends don't understand it and the data they have seen (division placement for example) is conflicting.

Bungie did a poor job of labeling and promoting it I think. The average gamer probably sees it as a sort of "MLGesque" type of playlist, which it really isn't.

The last thing I heard about it was that it now was win/lose-based but I don't think that's completely true, or losing 3 more games then your friends really is very important for your placement.

Is there a limit to how many jackpots you can win? At first playing arena today I got a bunch of higher slot machines along with a jackpot.

Now the slot machine is in the hundreds every time again.

You can only win the super jackpot once a day I believe.

MLG is another beast entirely. I feel like I have to relearn the whole damn game, which makes it tough because of the haggardness that Reach causes... Makes the game not very fun, and I find myself getting bored and making stupid decisions.
