If you ask a question about not having enough memory for a BR I can't be held responsible for my actions.
There will be people much smarter than me on the panel.

NEVER! You will watch the panels and enjoy.

Yeah, it will be a lucky time for you and your Girlfriend, who likes Halo too. btw. come online! I want to play.Hydranockz said:
He wanted to do some similiar thing like I wanted to do. But yeah, you/343i destroyed our plans. But his plans were much better than mine. He would have been an hero for the non-Halofest-attend-guys.lybertyboy said:

A softball question from me at this panel would be something like "Will the TU address the bug where Gauss Warthog turret shots clip through 'Structure' objects on Forge World and Tempest and other maps?"
I'm still considering doing the joke BR question, but only if I'm the last person up, I don't want to take away answering time from other people.
Does the pic in Waypoint bulletin with Gausshog withing Forge walls (looks like a boat) mean that the title update will fix Gauss Hog shooting through Forged Walls?
Elites are getting some love? Better Covie weapons or Elite stats tweaked?
EDIT probably reading too much into this... want more TU hints

This seems like a good plan for me
Friday
Saturday
Sunday
After the shitastic experience of losing like 5 hours of PAX due to waiting in panel lines at PAX08, I'd rather hit the ones where I'd like to be there for in person, and just catch the other ones on video after I get home.

Now to decide on actually pulling the trigger on buying the plane ticket by the end of tonight.

Fuck, living in Australia is annoying as fuck sometimes.
Reading about Halo Fest is doing my head in. It sounds so awesome, yet is so unattainable or at least not feasible. To make matters worse, even if we could get some Halo event together - it would suck ass in comparison.
That's the price the country pays for being so awesome.

Fucking Panels.
I question if I will even see the main PAX expo.
As it was during PAX I spent the majority if my time at the Bungie/Astro booth.. But now with Halo Fest I don't think I will ever venture out of the building to see what else PAX has to offer.
Love it, cannot wait.

For starters Astro won't be there, so thats not a worry
I honestly don't see me seeing the main hall much at all haha, which is fine with me. PRobably going to pick and choose panels though, maybe miss one or two.
what I want to know is if HaloGAFr's are special enough to get into that campaign screening and after party?

I'll definitely spend time in the main hall but if I don't see it until mid-day Saturday I wouldn't be shocked. From the sounds of things there is a chance that there will be a Halo 1 MP Lan set up. If that's the case I might just set up a cot and sleep there.
Also I am wondering if I shouldn't start planning the GAF breakfast again. We'll do it Saturday or Sunday (let me know what would be better). And hopefully this time everyone can make it...

Alright I will start making arrangements now then.Sean P. said:
Off topic somewhat... Does anyone have any idea what time will call opens? I want to line up as early as possible for the panel but need to pick up some badges at will call first... just trying to schedule my morning.
Also what time is everyone planning on lining up for the panel on Friday? It would be cool to all meetup around the same time so we can hang out in the lineup. I know we had that going with a couple of the panels last year and it worked great (until Wu almost got the whole group of us kicked out of line!)

OMG. I'll um be right back.............Ok now where was I. Oh yea. I so have to read the bulletin. All that Halo talk made me get an early jump on my last playthrough of the series until November or as I like to call it my Augest playthrough. So needless to say I finished out the rest of my campaign on Halo 1. lol
I have to say. Tonight for the first time in a long time I really stopped to take in the beauty of the game. You know what though the Library really is an amazing looking level. There are so many little details you can miss if you don't stop to actually look around it. I really can't wait to see the hallways with the shimmering like pool things on the walls and the little nooks and crannies of that level. It I think is my 3rd most anticipated level behind 343 Guilty Spark and the POA both beginning and end.

GAF Pre-PAX Pancake Party
<3 Sai-Kun
Confirmed Attendees
Where?: We ate here last year and the food/service was great. They were able to fix up a table big enough for the whole group of us with more then enough room to spare. The proximity to the Convention center is good, the only iffy part is parking. If my memory serves me correctly there is street parking all around it and if all else fails there is pay parking (very cheap) a block away... It's also nearly walking distance from the convention centre so if you're without a ride that's an option. (pretty sure a group of guys walked last year from breakfast and beat me to the panel line-up since I had to deal with parking and what'not)
When?: Up to you guys, the places open at 6:30AM but there is nothing Halo related to line up for until the Bungie: Hatching the Cosmic Halo Egg panel which is at noon... Right now people are suggesting 7AM. So tentatively it's 7AM
Why?: Because I said so
If you'd like to be added to the list please PM me or respond.
Also wondering about setting up a dinner get together on Saturday, what do you guys think?

Nice to hear that I'll be able to watch the PAX panels on Waypoint. I'm really interested in seeing the details on for the Title Update the most.
I guess it would be a good time to mention that I'm really grateful that Waypoint is a free service. I'm sure a lot of people take this for granted, but this is another reason why I love Halo. CoD looks at Waypoint and says "We can do that too, but lets charge people $10 a month for it."

You can count me in for both breakfast and dinner. Btw. I'm seeing what you americans eating as Breakfast. Damn guys...
I'm down for dinner as well.
I'd say pretty early for breakfast again though, then we can all get in at least a little exhibition hall time before the panel. Or just have a long breakfast
BTW Devin, we should have Duncan or someone host the breakfast plans on his website or something somewhere so we have a permanent list somewhere that doesn't get lost, if he's ok with that
