Halo Reach Reveal Thread - Matchmaking/Multiplayer Details Revealed

Woohoo, it's almost here! Meanwhile there is some sneak peak at one of the world premieres at 3 p.m. eastern time on Spike TV. I wonder if it's anything Reach related?

I'm guessing it'll probably be Medal of Honor or something.

I'm sure this has been asked a million times but is there anywhere to watch the reveal live? Is it going to be during a press-conference of some kind or what? Or do we have to wait until they put video up on live/Bungie.net/wherever to see it?

How do we select a regional Efnet server with Chatzilla? I'm confuzzled.
(saying this as a non-chatzilla user) Region isn't that important with irc servers, it should auto choose. As long as it's efnet you should be able to connect to #bungie.

Well the whole point of the reveal is that it's on the Spike Video Game Awards. If you mean watch it live on your computer, I don't think so. Geoff said it wasn't going to be streaming. But Bungie said they'd have the video up within hours of it's premiere.

I don't really know how to solve your problem, to be honest. All I had to do when I entered Chatzilla was click Efnet; there was a link right at the bottom of my chat window. Is that what you're having a problem with? Or is it something over my head?

12 minute VGA sneak peek here, stolen from VGA thread. Watching for any signs of Reach. Pretty amazing set, IMO.

EDIT: Or not. I thought the sides all lit up too, wth.

Sweet. Hope it works though. Not many sites get streaming right unfortunately

*Goes back to playing halo 2 pc to pass the time*

Someone said last year they had that too, but it didn't show the world premiers. So you guys can try, but I would have a justin.tv stream of the VGAs up too if the above doesn't work out.

Yeah, that'd be cool. Stupid SpikeTV is actually waiting until 8pm PST to air the VGAs instead of actually doing it live at 5pm PST/8pm EST.

Grats! @martytheelder wins best original score for ODST!!

One of the pre-show awards. Deserved.
BOOM! I CALLED IT! This is the one single vote I went on the website to cast. ODST is a great game and I understand that its not a big budget title, but its music was fucking amazing.

This soundtrack stood above the others for sure, and I saw some people speculating on Gaf and just shook my head. Marty deserved this 100%.

So what time is this thing going to be on my TV PST? And is that the earliest they're airing it?
Central time they are airing it twice. Once at 7pm central, and again at 9pm central. That would be both 8pm est and 8pm pst.

This mess is 6 hours long? I bet they'll be showing Reach at like the tail end too.

Screw it. Hopefully it'll be up on bungie.net when I wake up. >_>

Turns out my university has the eastern feed so I'll be able to watch it during the proper time. Really fucking dumb that it's not live for everyone though.
