Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

Interesting... but I never win contests.

Man. You can't get much more blatant than that.

Don't try and kid yourself that this is Bungie "paying respect to its fans." It works on exactly the same principle as the free trial cards. You play for free for a while and enjoy the experience so much you go for the full monty.

Just like the Beta. Bungie may state that it gets a lot of stick in such a way that they absolve themselves of blame, but the fact is that no matter how good Halo 3 will be (and it'll be awesome, I'm not going to deny them their skill at game development), they are definitely selling out ever so slightly


Forgive me Davey, but the term "sell out" just drives me crazy. Bungie is in the business to make money, how can you fault them for that? If you are trying to sell a product do you not want to sell as much of it as you can? Wouldn't you want to get the word out?

When MS gives away Trials, there is nothing the forces you to give them your credit card info. Just like getting the Beta for free, Bungie doesn't force you to buy the game on release day. Rather than "sell out," I think the term you are looking for is "Marketing."

This is nothing new. If someone makes a product that is GREAT, then more people are going to want it. The larger the potential market, the more you are going to see it in the media. This is a function Capitalism.

I don't see that Bungie has done anything wrong here. They have created something that will bring joy to millions. You should be so lucky as to be able to (as you call it) "sell out."

This is probably a place for either a wise or immature statement. I choose neither.

its like a large force of win going through fusion, thus creating a chain reaction of a huge asplosion of win destroying any fail within its awesomeness.

So hows does the give-away work? Do you just have to play XBL during the free period? Must it be on Halo 3 multiplayer, or what?

  • 09.11.2007 4:25 PM PDT

In high definition baby!

Wow, many Halo themes. That's too exspesive for most of us. It's only for rich people who have an obsession with Halo and have a Halo action figues, Halo refigerator with Grunty thirsts drink, Brute punching bag for exersice, Jackal shields cooking pot, and more!

I actually pooped a little while reading this update. If i won that sweet-ass car, i would actually cry, i would.

I'm a dude playing a dude desguised as another dude. I hate heritics, non-logical thoughts and people who are better than I am. People tell me that they like a lot of games, but I hate them all. Whenever I play a video game, I always go crawling back to Halo 3. Never go full retard!

MLG Semi Pro

Correct me if im wrong but i believe that the faded picture of the elites and banshees in the background of the pontiac Halo 3 is actually a screenshot from the halo Wars trailer. I though you might put a Halo3 backgroung after all it is a Halo 3 car

those 2 pictures CLEARLY arent the same car, ones a 2 door the other is a 4 door. Fakers

  • 09.11.2007 5:26 PM PDT

Thats awesome, I already bought a 12+1 month Gold Live card a couple weeks ago, but its awesome nonetheless. Hopefully I'll have my 360 back in time for Halo 3's launch (I'm sending it in tomorrow...), the DVD drive decided it wanted to stop reading discs right after I bought BioShock. :(

...I *was* playing my 360 on my kick-ass 14" TV, I plan on buying a new LCD TV in the next couple weeks also hopefully before H3's release.
