that which is not dead can eternal lie, but with strange aeons even death may die.

I must say. the is what I would call a "Real Bungie Weekly Update".

*claps*

I think of Frankie as a Pastor, preparing his weekly sermon.

And we, the followers, wait and rejoice, to his word.

A lot of hidden information in this update.

Thanks much!

This is what you call a good update?!? Crackdown was released on tuesday and Bungie hasn't even aknowlaged it! Where is the release date, where is the update letting us know that the beta is comming soon. This update is full of Bull. There is nothing in this update that even mentions the beta or Crackdown. Lets just slide past that subject and bring no attention to it, being there are thousands of people waiting for a release date or some kind of update about it.

Oh but we have the Halo 3 beta fact, which has information that has been known for weeks months even. This update is bull-blam!-!

Great update. I loved the fact the water simulation is in real time. I hope everything in Halo 3 is realtime and by the sound of the gun fire in the distance it is. I think that you guys are taking a quantum leap into the industry with real time. NO MORE 2 bite sounds!

it was another pretty good update. i would like to hear about a few other things but they can wait. i also am pretty stoked about the beta, because i purchased crackdown. it is actually a really fun and addictive game. [if you have it, try and beat all of the kingpins without killing the other bosses. the oil rig one took me a while to do]
otherwise, good job bungie i really can't wait for the beta, and especially the game itself!

Sounds Sweet! I can't wait until the Beta comes out so I can try it!! The update was very secretive and I can't wait to see all the new stuuf Bungie coke up with for Halo 3!

hey, you know what? bungie is working their asses off and maybe they just don't want to tell us of the phenomanal things that they are doing. so if you can't be patient about this don't -blam!- to them about how they're not even talking about crackdown. you know why? cuz they didn't help make it! it just has the beta invite in it, so why don't you quit complaining and do something in the meantime like -blam!- to the people who made crackdown, huh? leave it there, not here.

P.S. see panda thought it was secretive. he said something positive, unlike you!

You want to know what it'd be like to have no moderators on this site? Try this easy to prepare simulation.
Step 1: Procure yourself an intact box, something a fridge or similarly large appliance.
Step 2: Fill cardboard box halfway with feral cats. One or two should be rabid.
Step 3: Climb inside the box, closing the top behind you.
Step 4: Begin screaming and thrashing wildly at the cats.

Pretty sweet. Out of everything in the update I liked the fact that we will have distant gunfire. That is cool and with my surround sound I will get to enjoy every bit of it.


Another way you know you are dealing with Bungie fans: when Frankie announces something in the game that has been around for ages, people act like it's a new, stunning innovation.


WTH? As Achronos already said, I never meant to revere this as some new development we have never seen. All I was saying is I am excited to have this in Halo 3, and that it should really enhance gameplay. Ok, so you misinterpreted my post, you still didn't have to insult me like that.
