Too bad I got the Red Ring of Death today... now I have to wait like 2-3 weeks, and by then Bungie day will be over :( I guess I'm going to miss my first bungie day and the free theme/pic. Unless theres any other way to get them if you missed it.
Transfer your profile to another xbox (works really well if you've got a friend of a 360 of their own). Download freebies. Transfer freebies to a memory card. Transfer to 360 hard drive when you get it back.
Would it work for a normal xbox, or does it have to be a 360?

If you look at this stuff....go to a park or something else active

It looks like on Bungie day we may be able to pla Cold Storage, and then special other crap I don't care as much about! I CANNOT WAIT (but I have to...)!

What the heck does Spurious mean anyway?

I think Cold Storage is in the Mythic Map Pack. Otherwise I don't think that they would be releasing details about it.

Run to the hills, run for your lifes. (Is it safe to assume everyone knows what I referenced. If someone doesn't know, go listen to music. You'll find out.)


Shiska came across the sea
He brought us pain and misery
He killed our clans, our M6D
He took our game for his own need

We fought him hard we fought him well
Out on the net we gave him hell
But many came too much for DLC
Oh will those maps ever be set free?

Riding through flamewars and barren posts
Galloping hard on the bungie.net
Chasing the noobs back to their holes
Fighting them at their own game
Murder for freedom a stab in the back
Women and children and h2sucks.com attack

Run to the hills run for your lives
Run to the hills run for your lives

Spartans blue on the barren wastes
Hunting and killing their game
Raping the noobs and wasting the leet
The only good moderators are tame
Selling them whisky and taking their gold
Enslaving the young and destroying the old

Run to the hills run for your lives

"When he's not playing a game of phantom pistols or adding more shield doors to Guardian"

New map that is shown is just another epitaph.. it sucks. just take the triangle completely out of H2H and if your gonna give the person with camo a waypoint.. just take camo out. Also bungie should make an MLG map pack with just mlg stuff and GOOD maps without all this noob crap. 17 maps and only 5 are worth a dam. Get with it bungie, stop making horrible maps.

I don't want random messages (ie, Join my group, etc). I have begun blocking solicitations.

Seeing as how I referenced a 360 in the parenthesis... But really, think. Can you access the marketplace from a normal xbox? I would think by now, 2.5 years after the launch of the 360, the loose use of "xbox" would refer the the 360 (like calling a PS3 a "playstation").

Bungie Day!
Can't wait, hopefully the Halo 3 community can keep it's end of the bargain with the 7 Mill Kill.
Penny Arcade Expo
I am so there. I will have to sport some Halo 3 In The Workplace SWAG to this event in support of the BNet private group. Any more info on the 2v2 against Luke and Shishka would be excellent.
Content License Transfer Tool
Well thank you for sharing this. I got the "Red Light of Death" and haven't been able to play the Halo 3 Legendary Map Pack on any of my other profiles.
COLD STORAGE UPDATE
This map is looking to be very promising. I really can't wait to play on this map.
Shishka's Matchmaking Update
RBTB survives another month. Grifball is my favorite Double EXP Weekend gametype ever. The other changes and additions don't look to out of the ordinary.

  • 06.29.2008 3:44 PM PDT

Maybe I will never be
All the things that I wanna be
But now is not the time to cry
Now's the time to find out why
I think you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever

I only signed in to b.net with one intent and that was to call you a DOLT. You haven't even played the map yet shut your hole this will be nothing like Epitaph. And Bungie making an MLG only map pack would be a terrible idea what about the casual fans they do exist you know.....

We have been racking our brains for a few hours now and we at the social think we have figured this out. Heres our input. . . . .


C!#4x---^&-$x%^^p3@

This can be either of two things. One a Leet way of saying Cold Storage, do remeber this code is also corrupte. So some letters / words may be miss represented.

• Head2@!#SWa#++-DL*SLAj3r

This is not head to head swat. This means Head too swat and DLC Slayer. Meaning you should play swat and DLC after the 4th till the 8th to find what bungie have in store.

• 48hr0x0ABFFFFF [ERR 5929]

This part is easy to work out if you split it up right. 48hr is 48 hour's. The next bit was alittle harder but nothign google cant solve. If you take 0x0A, this is the code for a windows stop message, or as some people may know it, the blue screen of death, commenly found in older pc's. Go to http://www.aumha.org/a/stop.php for more info.

Now the last bit ( BFFFFF ) is a colour code. This is Light blue in any colour chart, add this to the bit befor is saying cold fusion will be a blue map of death. Now we will add this up and show you what we got.

ANSWER : On the 7th of july, head too the swat and DLC Hoppers to play cold fusion for 48 hours.

This is a little off topic but I think bungie shuld make a section of the site where you can make your own maps. they culd give ppl tools for making the terrain and stuff, then you culd dl it to your box. And other people culd dl also.


Great update btw. I liked the overhead of cold storage, but i dont care that much about mm.

  • 06.29.2008 6:36 PM PDT

ok

Dont get too wrapped up in the Internet. It's already forgotten about you.

Wonder what the hidden gametypes will be?

I just want to say, Bungie, that this honestly has to be one of my favorite updates that I can remember.

The MM updates *in particular* are brilliant this month.
And Cold Storage looks AMAZING.
Great work!

And now...
can you bring back Colossus please?

Maybe one day Bungie will finally get their head out of the gutter and just put team snipers and only team snipers, not shotty snipes or that splasers trash, on a ranked matchmaking playlist. Also, maybe they'll tweak head to head so it doesn't compensate for everyone who has to rely on radar or a waypoint over a head to attempt to win.

ZOMG I CAN HAZ REFERENCES TO #7?!!

1. */ looks quite like the number 7
2. 93% packet corruption, leaving 7% deciphered
(3 and 4 lie within the "[ERR 5929]" code)
3. 5+9= 14. 14/2= 7!
4. 2-9= -7!
5. In the passage that is predicted to be "Cold Storage", the numbers 4 and 3 appear.
6. (possible) 1st and 3rd numbers are 5 and 2, adding up to 7.
7. I figured there'd be a seven7th reference to 7, but I haven't found one yet. Any ideas?


Could this all be coincidence, perhaps one could say I am looking too hard? Well, this is Bungie we're talking about. They're more shrouded in mystery than the miracles of Sea Monkeys, Sasquatch, Televangelism, Oriental Cooking, and Al Capone's vault combined!

Either way, playing cold storage would be awesome. It would bring back the excitement and joy of being one of those who was signed up for the H3 Beta. Oh the memories...
