I have a question of my own. Why is the only possible way for people outside of the US to get involved with the beta to buy some crap game? It takes the piss.

Thank you, -blam!- pots.


have u even played the demo of crackdown? i thought they were just usin a crap game to launch the beta. It's actually a great game from what i can tell from the demo especially when you play with a friend online.


I agree completely with you when you say that Crackdown is a great game, I had my doubts, but I can't wait to play the full version of CD, and of course... the beta invite.

Yea I have played it with my friend but I found it a bit boring, saying it was crap is my opinion, and the only chance of getting into the beta is from buying the game if you live outside the US. I want to try out halo 3, but I'm not willing to buy a game I wont play to play a cut down trial of a game I could use that money to buy..if you understand. So have fun playing.

ANOTHER QUESTION THAT WASN'T IN THERE.
Sorry for the caps, it attracts attention.

Okay, will we be allowed to have guests and other split screen games in the beta?

yes we will be allowed to have guests. it was metioned in an earlier weekly update.

and personally i think the beta may last until summer. maybe like march 1 - july 1. or something like that. this way bungie can get the information they need, we can enjoy the game (and get addicted to it), and it will give us plenty of time for us to beg about the release date of halo 3 (i suspect november 2007).

Nice update KP. MS have being saying not to get Crackdown for the beta-but for the game. But the thing is that the guys in Europe need to get crackdown to actually have a chance of playing H3 so they kind of bring onto themselves really

Halo's a hell of a drug.

Can we have guest on the beta? I have friend who do not have a 360, but love playing Halo. Will I be able to allow them to play the beta with me on my 360?

That was pretty cool. It gave me more of a heads up on what's coming with multiplayer.

Awesome. Now i need an Xbox 360 >_>

Since this is a Beta, does that mean you guys will be able to fix them Superbounces that people tend to find? I hate SBing im matchmaking so much!

  • 02.16.2007 5:44 AM PDT

You punched the highlights out of her hair!

Is Bungie going to be actively monitoring the XBox Live network to get its data, or do we have to fill something out or make a forum post to send them that data?

Reporting things that don't work is fine for me, but anything more complicated than that, and I'm no good haha.

....Actually, I think it'll probably be a little of both...Sorry for the wasted post O:)

I think that the beta will either start or end on 7.07.07 of this year... :) just think about it....

  • 02.16.2007 6:25 AM PDT

This game is crap. Don't buy it! Just buy Halo 3 when it come out. :/

  • 02.16.2007 6:31 AM PDT

Great job Bungie

I think it has to do with the logistics of it all. After all, it was a contest. It must have been difficult enough working around all the contest rules and regulations defined by each state here in the U.S. let alone retaining lawyers to deal with running contests in other countries.
When your purchasing something, (Re: Crackdown), the rules are different.

By the way, KP, major kudos to you for your devotion to us fans. Staying up late just to post info that every soul on this site has been hounding you over for the last few days. Maybe it's because you've been on our side of the fence before. Either way, it was pretty cool to wake up to an update to read before work. Keep it up man. Hope to see you guys online in the beta.

KP is a laser god...LoL... I wanna be a laser god.
