I'm going to have to give up my CE of H3, I already preordered it but I need the money for my girl and I.

We are going to a school dance, 1st one of the year. She has been looking forward to it and since I bought Van Halen tickets for both of us I'm dry out of money. Oh well I can play Halo 3 another day :(
 
Is anyone else surprised at the lack of Halo 3 content on Marketplace? I don't know about the US (can't be bothered to log in to my US account), but there is very little in the UK Marketplace.

I would have thought they would have started sticking Halo 3 ads up by now, but all we're getting are ads for the wheel, messenger kit, Enter Shikari and an ad for the games out this week.

Even the Marketplace itself is looking a bit bare, when you consider this will be the biggest thing to hit the platform. A few videos, a few themes and a set of gamer pictures doesn't cut it.

I don't know what I expected specifically, but I did think there would a torrent of media on Marketplace prior to release.

Who knows, maybe there is a load of stuff they're just waiting to put up over the next 2 weeks.

Hmm, geriatric rockers pumping out 20-year-old songs with all the strength their viagra can muster vs. the biggest entertainment release in the history of the known universe. Tough call.

But anyway, tell David Lee Roth hello. :D
 
wow, I was wondering where you guys were getting those stats from so I took a guess and wow, didn't realize they had that info up there.

I played more than I thought for not playing that much.

I left Halo 2 because

A) I'm worse than I remember
B) I had to Pee

Also the reason I wasn't talking was because my headset got mangled in the recliner. Cords cut plastic smashed. Delicious. I'm picking up a wireless one at Halo 3 launch.

I liked when Urk was raping the box.

I seriously have to pee now.

I was holding it in for a while. Flowed like the waterfall on Valhalla.

I approve of all the Brimley talk and the dude who was playing the "Diabeetus-beetus-beetus-beetus-beetus-beetus-beetus" song over their headset. I'll be back on later maybe.

4 games left...
 
If you guys play for a few more hours I may be on at some point. I am waiting for my Halo 3 gameplay vid from Gamersyde to hurry and finish on torrent. Bout 30 min if all goes well.

I love when people who can't load the map don't man up to it. I am very appreciative of those that do, though.
Was it me? Crap. That shouldn't affect me in Halo 3 right?

I should be joining soon, DL is almost done.
GT KLindblogger if you still want to. I'll be on in 30-45 min.
 
I had to leave cuz my friend was leaving. She didnt do that bad huh? I saw her killing SpudBud (or maybe it was Urk) once and it cracked me up, I dont know why.

I only did once, but its was right before I left, so it didnt matter.

Bungie releasing Halo 3 during September was fan service. Microsoft isn't going to start marketing Halo 3 heavily until late October.

Lol, I actually missed my shots at her when she was standing still.
 
I guess it's ok to ask this here. Is it actually confirmed that the new wireless Halo headsets for 360 are actually redesigned over the original? Just wanted to make sure before I put down the money again on one of these. I sold off the original one I had because of how shitty it was. I thought Frankie mentioned something about it, but I just wanted to be sure.

GAF said USB charge.

Actually, it was revised a little while ago to ship on the 25th.

Hey Ghaleon, I work at Gametop and that guide is actually shipping to stores on the 16th I believe. Of course they are street dated for 9/25 but I'm sure a few yahoos arent going to respect that date. Bottom line, theres a REALLY good chance that spoilers will be showing up around that time.


Also Halo 3 shipments should arrive in stores around 9/18. We cant even open the boxes until launch night (9/24) Actually we were told that DM's would be making "random" stops in stores to make sure the shipments werent tampered with.

Hoo yeah, I saw that. Back then when we were a couple, I taught her to play H2. I was glad she still remembered. If I play later, I will log in with my brother (its his 360 after all), he is 7, so most likely you will still outscore somebody.
 
Buttonbasher said:

Huh? I was wondering more about the sound quality and reception. USB charging is much better than the extra AC adapter though-but if the audio quality still sucks it won't make a difference.
 
Yeah, it was fun. Only had time for three games cause I was playing with some friends before that.. Also, wtf numbers. Why were you being an asshat in that game on lockout? Fucking annoying.
 
Will there be GAF games in the near future? I wish to get back into Halo 2 before Halo 3 but without having to deal with the jackasses that inhabit Xbox Live.

I was playing with it tonight and it seemed to be fine. When I left the room and lost the connection I had a bitch of a time to get it reconnected, but other than that when it was working there were no problems. I didn't have the previous wireless headset so I can't offer you any comparison though.

You know what day the Halo 3 LE 360s are getting in? The EB/GS website says it ships 9/16 (next Sunday). Seems weird they would ship on a Sunday.
