Trailer Park Boys ~ One of the best Canadian made comedies ever.

Indeed, Crackdown is a great game. I'm glad the H3 beta was chosen to go with Crackdown instead of any other game.

Great update KP, finally some much need answers!

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



Dude! Are you crazy? Crackdown is awesome! Obviously your either A. Ga7 B. Retarded or C. Both. I mean Crackdown is from the company that made the GTA series. I mean, YOU GET A TRANSFORMING CAR DAMMIT! THAT'S AWESOME! Hey KP back me up!


Your obviously the ga7 one, you like a black guy in spandex? Thats fun?!


Hello! Have you even played the demo yet? In the demo alone you can change your look to anything from the default black guy to a weird lookin' Asian dude. Besides you racist, it's not spandex, It's partialy bulletproof blue agency armor. DEAL WITH IT!!!! Besides, what you got against blacks?

Please do not tell me Bungie are the ones who came up with all these stupid restrictions?!?!?!?
-You will need an Xbox 360 with a hard drive and an Xbox Live Gold account?!?
-The beta will not start when Crackdown is released. The beta will go live when it's ready, which should be sometime this Spring?!?
-The beta will only be playable for a limited time. Exact timing is still TBD?!?!
-And (the kicker) I have to buy a whole freakin game I might not even want?!??!
There were SO many other options than this. For Christ sakes!!!!! I am surprised nothing was said about weight restrictions, eye color or available playability within the hours of 5 to 5:15 Pacific time!!!

And if this WAS all the stupid idea of M$?, hey Bungie...you gotta stop being Microsofts' biatch!!!

colour blind and Canadian eh!

hey dudes, I have one question that's been bugging mee since I heard of all the cool new things coming out, so here it is:

are the Beta graphics going to be placeholders or the real deal? I mean, we've been hearing about all this godly looking water, and the individual grass strands waving in the wind, my question is are we going to see any of this!

~Clubinator~

PS: since i am too lazy to check this post later, could someone PM me when and if there is a reply?

  • 02.16.2007 2:21 PM PDT

BTB is the way

ahh Kp come on 4 people already asked if the Beta supports system link games and you just ignored it that's kinda lame
please tell me so i can start with planning the next L.A.N. party
I really need to know
or else we will play stupig gears of war and that's even more lam than ignoring the question

You're kidding, right? There were many other options. And the ones you listed are givens in a Beta test. I don't understand the problem here.

what the...where did that nade come from?

XBC:[HJ]menikmati

soooo if we dont get a copy of crackdown in its first shipment will we miss out?

  • 02.16.2007 2:41 PM PDT

praetoriaguard.com

So can we play the beta after the testing or not??? I already asked this once KP! Help me out here, I got the beta and was hoping I'd be able to to play it until the full game comes out. Now I'm not so sure.

Yes ive played the demo. And how exactly is saying "black guy" racist? Its people like you who seriously piss me off. I could be black for all you knew. If i said "white guy" you wouldnt of even thought twice about it. And i dont care what it is..its tight and it looks pretty bent.

The only thing I wanted to ask that I didn't see in this FAQ is ... will it allow multiplayer, like split screen multiplayer so some of my friends without a 360 can give it a spin? ;)

You probably should have pre-ordered one that says it will have a halo 3 beta test on it! that would be the safest way!

Ah yeah, thanks for that retard comment, looks like high school just got let out. Hey jerk-off, saying Crackdown is a great game is called an opinion and they are like a-holes..everyone's got one AND if your ok with all the restrictions such as needing a HD, needing a gold account, not knowing the freaking beta release date AND having limited game play....then your a bigger sucker than I thought!!

Whatever ok? It's just the way you typed it seemed like you didn't like being a black guy. Besides if you don't want to buy Crackdown then don't be in the Halo 3 BETA ! The whole reason M$ chose Crackdown was so that people would pay more atention to this under advertised game. Seriously I thought it was ga7 when i heard bout it, but i proved myself wrong!

I'm really glad that there won't be phases to the Beta like some (namely Xbox 360 fanboy) sites "Reported" (speculated on, offering their opinion as facts, oblivious to the fact that anyone cares about their validity) and that we will all get to play the Halo 3 Beta at the same time. Thanks bungie, just get it to us whenever it's ready, we can wait XD

Look just because your too stupid to have relized you DON'T need HD, GOLD is better (why would u chose otherwise?) and Bungie has always been bad with dates, also it's so Bungie can gather DATA! The Beta is pretty much a demo of Halo 3! Besides forums are all about other peoples opinions! GET USED TO IT!

Those owners of Crackdown that have access to an Xbox 360 Pro console or an Xbox 360 Core console with hard drive and a valid Xbox Live Gold subscription simply need to load their copy of Crackdown into Xbox 360 and use the disc as a key to download the beta from Xbox Live Marketplace and join the battle in Halo 3 multiplayer. -From news post, Rule of 3

Hencefore I prove my point. HD would be best but not needed.

Rockymonk is right. Spandex isn't cool, and niether is knowing what he's wearing lol! "Ooh its partially bulletproof agency amour!! Leave me alone mister" that's just -blam!- knowing about it. You need a life.

Rockymonk wasn't being racist, as I am black and saying "Black man" isn't racist at all. Just like me saying white guy! You're a stupid bender to call him racist : /
