Is it wrong that I think having flood or another 3rd party controlled by AI would be the shit if made an option to mix into team games?

You just described the direction I hope one iteration of Firefight takes in Reach. :D

For any HaloGAFfers who need their XBL Gold extended once the Beta rolls around or something: http://www.bungiestore.com/Xbox-360-12-Month-Live-Gold/A/B0029LJIFG.htm

XBL 12 Month Gold for $30. My subscription ends in May when the Beta arrives so I'm jumpin' in on this.

Edit: Added the Bungle referral link in case people want their monies to go to them. :D

Hmm, had no idea they teamed up with Amazon. Interesting.

Bought.

On that note, I just went out and got today's mail. And the new issue of Edge came!

Unfortunately for me, "new" in the US means last month's issue. Mega letdown. :lol

Ouch. Although it is a good issue. Retrospectives are always cool.

In light of these recent events, there will be no update on Halo: Reach's development this week. No poorly wrought prose or corny jokes. No Blame Stosh. It just doesn't feel right. I’ll make it up to you in the future. I promise.

Speaking of mega letdown, looks like no update today, instead they are focusing on a relief effort for Haiti which is good, but no update is bad.

Edit: beat

Kinda tough to follow up something like that with talk of Laser Doors. Don't worry, Laser Doors aren't going anywhere. I'll get to 'em next week.

I know it doesn't start until next Wednesday, but for HaloGAF Customs tonight (c'mon everyone, join in!), why not change up your emblems and show your support in advance.

And make sure you guys actually come to Customs tonight! =P

Also, can we also stretch to a special HaloGAF Customs night this wednesday to show our full proper support? It shouldn't be too much to ask.

$77,000 will require 770,000 people, it definitely needs its own thread.

But it's dastardly late, I really don't see how you manage it each week.

Can't fault that, fair play.

I haven't played in quite some time, but I'm inspired to jump in next week. Kudos.

It's a great effort urk, kudos to you and the guys at Bungie.

To those disappointed with the lack of update, the Edge magazine with Reach cover story is due either tomorrow or monday.

We'll be getting something at least before next friday. It isn't all that bad. =)

Nice of Bungie to do that. All I can do is the emblem thing since my CC has not been letting me shop from the US these last few weeks.

but there better be TWICE as much Oonsk in next week's update

Quick rant: I wanted to keep this out of the donation thread. Ok, I've defended Bungie against the haters MANY times over the past few years. But, you know what? At the end of the day, if you don't like their games, fine. You don't have to like them. But seriously? People are gonna hate on Bungie for donating money and raising awareness for the victims of the Haiti earthquake? Wow internet. I actually didn't think you could get sillier. Yet here we are. What are they supposed to do? Turn the studio into a monastery and take a vow of silence? That's right guys. Joe Staten is helping that old woman across the street, but he's only doing it to try and get her to buy Contact Harvest! What an asshole!

I'm gonna go play Bayonetta. =\

GhaleonEB: Wouldnt you know that you hadnt received last months Edge issue, and therefore be expecting the non-Reach issue? Or are you a new subscriber so didnt realise?

Mega let down indeed.
