Trying something once will increace your chances of success, because you tried it. Try someting twice, and your chances increase yet again - seeing as you've done it. Try something a few thousand times, and your chances of success is exponentially increased; this increase would likely provide success every time

While this is a site for Bungie, the creators of Halo, and people do visit it; it does not mean that it is their favorite. Myself for example, I would probably have to choose Super Mario Galaxy as the Best Game. You may call me a traitor and a non-true fan, but a true fan will show what they like the most; not kiss ass. My apologies for being blunt, it just seems as though you are saying 'You come here, now vote for Halo 3'. People will vote for what they enjoy, and what they love. Yes, Halo 3 is an amazing game, but in the end it is ones personal opinion. Also, this may be considered spam here in the Septagon. I would report this thread, but I myself am unsure. This may be better suited for either the Classifieds or the Halo 3 Forum.

And the Shadow fell upon the Land, and the World was riven stone from stone. The oceans fled, and the mountains were swallowed up, and the nations were scattered to the eight corners of the World. The moon was blood, and the sun was as ashes. The seas boiled, and the living envied the dead. All was shattered, and all but memory lost, and one memory above all others, of him who brought the Shadow and the Breaking of the World. And him they named Dragon.

Voting done ;)

Poll: Loyal Fans Apply Here:  [closed]
'Done It!':  100%
(72 Votes)
Total Votes: 72

As you may already know, Gamespot is currently holding its 'Best Of 2007 Awards', and Halo 3 is nominated in four categories. At the time of posting, this is how it stands:

Game Of The Year: 1,057 votes, 11% of votes, and 3rd place overall.

Best 360 Game: 4,096 votes, 43% of votes, and 1st place overall.

Best Shooter: 2,199 votes, 20% of votes, 2nd place overall.

Best Multiplayer: 3,905 votes, 37 % of votes, 2nd place overall.


Are you kidding me? A thousand votes for Game Of The Year?!! At this moment in time there are 184,444 people playing online. 870,679 players have logged on in the last 24 hours. That means that 0.12% of people have voted. And that's just those playing in the last day!

What I'm asking the loyal fans to do is to take 30 seconds of their time to thank Bungie for the incredible amount of work they have done to produce this game. Here are links to the individual categories:

Best Game

Best 360 Game

Best Shooter

Best Multiplayer

All you have to do is click 'Vote' under Halo 3. That's it. No registration, no hassle. Easy. You have no excuses. The winners are announced between the 24th and the 28th, so time is short.

Let's see if we can't make a tangible difference. The very fact that you're on the Forums means you are dedicated. If you vote for Halo 3 through the above links, then please select 'Done It!' in the poll. That way we can keep track of the contribution we have made to the overall picture. Let's try and nudge the game into No. 1 in these categories.

Please comment below, so that the thread stays on the 1st page and gives the cause a good chance of success.

Call of Duty will win because more people can play it. Thats all. If Halo3 was on all systems, it would win.

Rokit: I understand that, but I'm sure there are thousands of Halo 3 fans who are unaware of these awards and I simply want to draw their attention to this. If you want to vote for another game, by all means do so. But I think it is reasonable to assume that people who frequent the Forums of Bungie are likely to hold the game in high regards. Several people have already voted, which lends credence to this.

As to the spamming query, I think that is a bit far. This forum is listed as 'A gathering place for Bungie community activity'. Surely raising support for the developer's game falls under this category? I am not doing this for personal benefit, I have only the game's best interests at heart.


And I agree with the comments made about Call Of Duty, multi-platform games do have an advantage. But hopefully we can overcome that! Thanks to those who have voted.

I understand. I just got the 'Vote this or be banished' vibe. But then again, I've been in front of this computer for about six hours now......

It is commonly mistaken, no worries. The Septagon is a place for discussions of the site, community get together, even a support forum.

They act all big and tough when their on camera with their friends and their guns. But when you break into their house in the middle of the night and stick a gun barrel in their face. They cry like babies and and piss their pants.

CAN is different than DO. Or even HAVE for that matter. Halo 3 outsold every other game, including Call of Duty 4, despite being on only one system.

dang, halo 3 needs to win! its losing to MARIO
F***ING MARIO

Exactly. Halo has sold the most, has the greatest fan base, has clocked up an insane number of online matches: we really need to pull our weight here. More votes!

The only award it deserves out of here is MAYBE best multi player. (hence .12% of people ONLINE have voted...)

It by far is not best game of 07, not even on 360 (only good games this year were ON 360 unfortunately for halo 3)
and the other games that come to mind are also shooters... bioshock/cod4 etc.

Mario is better than any game out now.

Don't deny your gaming roots... Unless you're a snot-nosed little kid. >_>

Gauss Cannon Ownage

I will, however, confirm that the Assault Rifle fires projectiles. At the moment, at least. We might just end up turning it into a melee-only weapon.

That was a joke.

Lets Go Halo 3!!!

CoD4 is just a pretty shooter. Where is the Most Creative and Unique Game?!?

Halo is my Gaming Roots. It got me in and I am stickin with it.
