It is there, but the post is also in German(I'm german) so maybe they leaked something early?
edit: wait does my gif work?

On Xbox? Yes.
On PC? Free always, with all the same features.
Same with Youtube and whatever else Xbox apps there are...
Xbox, Bing paywall. Snap slow clap GIF.
I was going to make a joke about how much I was agreeing with him. Lol

Yeah, but this way we're not acting as the Halo thread.
It's a bit damned if you, damned if you don't. This is meant to be our outlet for OT stuff only.

Why did Halo 4 have a live action trailer before we saw gameplay at E3?
Why did Halo 3 have a CG trailer on tv long before we really saw the game (E3 2006 trailer aside)
Why do we have live action trailers?
Because they're an effective marketing tool. Unfortunately.
The "wow" implies that you're surprised by this.
What's wrong with it?

Not representative of content or features. Even the narrative in the trailer could focus on very different things.
I kind of am since I can get the same stuff online for free

Look at practically every Halo live-action ad.
Never mind content, they don't even represent the tone of cutscenes you'd find in game.
People are being sold products with minimal exposure to what they are actually like. Sometimes I wonder if the people behind these commercials would rather be working in some other medium.
The game isn't being sold on its terms, it's being sold by something that isn't anything like it.
Oh like just about every Gold-restricted service?
Netflix, Twitter, Facebook, Last FM, Hulu, Sky Go, YouTube etc.

Who is in charge of the CGI in Destiny? I was expecting something at the quality of Halo Wars
Creo que si, estamos en la seccion de "blablabla" lo que digas.

Being from Portugal, I don't have access to most of these services. So I don't use these services at all. Sorry for the ignance!

I almost feel sorry for OddOne and all the time he spent on the previous OT.
Anyway, I find it weird that there's no talk of Legendary Slayer at all, which was supposed to debut with the new weapon update. Is it not happening now, or being pushed to a later date? It's very frustrating to not get relatively important questions answered in the Bulletin, but yet I get to read about how happy everyone at 343 is about the Halo TV comedy special (or whatever it ends up being).

No man, Portugal barely has any services. I can't even browse Indie games and there's like... 5 apps. It's really sad.

Oh it's similar here. Netlix being the exception probably. But that has more to do with Netflix coming here than Microsoft.
It could be worse. You could live somewhere other than EU or NA and have access to nothing.

and pay fully for XBL kinda sucks right?

That's just a relative privation fallacy.

Seems appropriate.
EDIT: Fixed link.
To the bold: It was really bad for a while. After I started using my ignore list to an insane degree, it became so much better. It could actually still be really bad, but I don't see a majority of it.
I'm with you, man. To me, it sounded like a good chunk of the members either need to learn how to use NeoGAF or need to leave. As much as I love fine female posteriors, I didn't need it in the Halo thread. Some new members tried to fit in and try to use established inside jokes, instead of bringing something unique to the table; while others ignored basic posting protocols had and forced the square piece in the round hole. All of those probably should have been pruned or slapped on the wrist harder.
Also, the moderation choice to move an insular community to the most secluded part of the site is definitely confusing.

They said this console generation would last 10 years and we're just now coming up on number 8. Microsoft is just doing their part to encourage you to stick with it for another 2.

You should be able to use the 'subscribed' button on mobile, I use it all the time. There's a button on the top right that brings down a menu with it.lol
I can't use that on mobile.

It really sucks when your favorite franchise is tied to a console that's so anti-consumer. I may just switch to PS4 next-gen. At least Destiny will be on it.

Xbox One won't play Halo 4. Wonder how much the population will suffer.

Haven't been keeping up with the shitstorm, this is for real? Good lord. I thought the lack of campaign/SpOps theater would be fixed for people who got the xbone, but I guess not. I am seeing no reason to buy that thing any time soon.
Mobile GAF is my savior. Most image sites are blocked at work, so I can at least get in on some jokes by switching to my phone.

It has no Backwards compatibility so
It's also got things like the green highlighting for your quoted posts on by default instead of requiring extensions. I definitely browse it more on mobile than at home.

There's essentially no reception in my office, so if that ever happens for me, it's during lunch. Meanwhile, this is ~75% of my internet usage at work. The frustrating part is this happens for a bunch of sites that we need to use here too, so we're always submitting tickets for bullshit. Or sometimes, the main site will load, but any iframes are like this. So frustrating and anti-productive.
This isn't even a specific picture on minus, just the homepage.
