wow, how awesome is the offical site. It's companies like Bungie that makes me love this hobby and industry. Their passion, vision, initiative etc. What a great time to be a gamer, really, I feel so lucky

Man, the bubble shield is like the best shit ever. Can I make it rain bubble shields with Forge, then have people battle in a Bomberman-like fashion moving from bubble shield to bubble shield, until they walk into one with a grenade in it? :lol

That's an awesome idea.

Being forced to read NeoGAF as banned really sucks. You'll want to reply sooo bad.

Tell me about it. I was banned during the formation of this legendary thread, and I wasn't able to talk at all. :( Everytime I signed it , I got the "oh no you didn't" response from my ban. :(

Now that is Awesome. EB Games just has Halo everything all over their windows. Being At that Best Buy would be a cooler experience.

His Best Buy could totally kick your Best Buy's ass.

I'm gonna go on record stating this is the most hyped game in history. This is just insane.

That would be Vice City, my friend. In my opinion, Halo 3 won't even touch the success that this game had, especially because everyone and its mother owned a Ps2 back then.

Yep. Bet his is free from Jack Thompson rule. So many younglings will have to be embarassed by their parents having to buy their Halo's here.

Although that could make the initial hours of Multiplayer more civilized. Kids have bedtimes. And I have Parasite fuel.

I don't know. Maybe my memory isn't serving me very well, but I really don't remember this much hype for Vice City. I do remember it selling well, but i don't think it had all the media attention that Halo 3 has. Sure it was the sequel to GTA3, and all the controversy surrounding it, but I would classify that more as criticism than hype. But meh, i could be way off.

Would be a treat to go to that midnight launch--it looks as if they're prepared!

I don't remember the hype here on GAF, but I do remember a lot of hype surrounding http://www.kentpaul.com/ and all the other Websites R* pulled off.

vice city had no where near the hype amount halo 3 or 2 has / had.

Because you don't remember this :

being all over the internet the day it went out? You don't remember the number of cover story the game had?

Hell, my girlfriend knows the song : "I Ran" because she heard it in a Vice City ad.

I'm not trying to say that Halo 3 doesn't have hype, but Vice City was way bigger back then than Halo 3 is now, in my opinion.

Wow. An E-Card, Cover story and commercial.

Awesome. I'm hyped.

no, it wasn't.

and it's not about my halo 3 avatar. i was pretty fucking hyped for vice city. but the hype surrounding halo 3 is 10x it ever was for vice city.
 
Wow, I keep watching that 90 sec commercial. I keep getting chills at the end with Chief and the music.


Also, I like this picture:

wrong wrong wrong.. I don't remember vice city being sold in freaking 7-11

and a preorder boxes in wal-mart..

as far as I can remember wal-mart in canada hardly ever does pre-orders.
 
Are we going to have player guides for the multiplayer maps before launch? That was one of my favourite pre-beta features, I felt like I knew my way around before even playing.

Please!
 
Hype for VC was comparable to H2, but H3 easily surpasses it. Not sure why this is even an issue, what's the point of downplaying VC's hype?
 
I haven't been paying a lot of attention to Halo lately. I played way too much of 2 and had to give it a really big break.

But now, I want the info, the scoop, the low down, or however you want to put it. Lay it on me. :)
