:/ Not the greatest update ever, if you can call it that....just sort of a date pushback...

  • 09.12.2008 9:12 PM PDT

New Marathon? Thanks Bungie!

I always thought the graphics for Halo were good except for that one thing that made everybody here revolt

Great, another boring update. Just telling us that the TU2 is delayed, Bans will be applied, some kid's music is bad, etc. What's with the negativity?

You only bring "sweep the leg" out for the most important of annoncements. That phrase is to be revered and respected as a symbol of the innocence and gumption of the 80's. It, along with "nobody puts baby in a corner" and "what the hell is a jiggawat", must be perserved by those of us who were there. So that one day when "epic" has become a synomym for "mediocore" and little old ladies shuffle around saying "Fail", people who remember when hollywood gave us stories with outlandish things like character development instead of autobots and greenscreen fakery can look back, and say "game over, man."

That was not a sweep the leg annoncement fellas.


Uh, hey, the 80's gaeve us Autobots, and on the big screen even. And dangit, they were awesome..... you got the touch!!!!

GT: Blue Beta
"Humans were built for war"-Solid Snake


a cyber punk thriller: "Hell" I heard pretty good things about hell. It was in the bible and -blam!-, so it must be pretty good. -blam!- crazy. Its like "Shadow Run" without the run. Cept Its just like: "Get -blam!-" Cause your in hell. I mean, its not that much fun down there. A lot of pineapples... Sucks ass actually

BTW: I am from Egypt, and a muslim.

I hope its not too swing-happy with the hammer. There have been plenty of times i play team doubles with my friend, and we would automatically win cause they lagged out. One time ti happened twice in a row.

I personally enjoy a look into the personal lives of the Bungie guys. Especially after that fateful night when I got HUNDREDS of Halo related calls.

Say, what's the image on the update from?

  • 09.12.2008 9:47 PM PDT

I guess that's cool.

  • 09.12.2008 10:00 PM PDT

I have a question. what about those who have bad lag? or have something else to do besides play halo during a game? will the system keep record of those quitting on a constant basis? my xbox had a problem and it kept freezing while i played and it caused me to lose rank. also it would sign me out of live.

Wow, another crappy update! No one cares about your golf game. You know people read these updates for news about Halo...yet we constantly get these walls of texts to fill up space to make it look like an update. Like how much potential info can be given out about the updates coming to Halo, yet we barely get any other than the guaranteed news of delays and the 'oh we cant talk about this and this'? I appreciate the hard work you guys put in, but man, give the fans who keep this community alive something better. And to all the people who said 'good update', where the hell are you getting this from? Sure the news of a delay is news, but we need something more over here to keep us coming back. If being told that you must wait longer for AU2 is what makes a good update, then great job!

Shucks. I was hoping for some news on new maps or something of the like. Beggars can't be choosers though.

  • 09.12.2008 10:12 PM PDT

Just remember... I keep it real...

At first I was thinking about how it was a 'meh' update but then I saw the podcast, it made it all worth it.

I agree with fonziefonz. I have been reading these updates since H2, and these are pretty much a joke most of the time. I do not know why I even bother anymore. I guess I just hope something remotely informative to be said, but I always get let down. I am just waiting for this big update to see what happens, because IMO your matchmaking system is TERRIBLE. I love the game, but matchmaking ruins it for me. Too many stupid gametypes, playing the same maps over and over again, control of what you want to play is too limited. Almost every game I play the first map and gametype gets veto'd. Everybody is veto happy because they do not like the choice, and then the second option comes up and people -blam!- about that too. Then you have people quitting because they are not happy. Hell, I quit games myself. Games with just swords or Hammers is something I HATE, and not being able to even pick up grenades. Very lame. I hate VIP too. Just my opinion BTW, but it has got to tell you something about your system.

Anyway, I understand bungie is not forcing me to play this game. I just wish matchmaking was much better. Way too many things that ruin it for me, Again, I have been playing since H1 came out, and I love the game, I am just sick of not being able to play what I want.

H3 lost alot of gamers since COD4 came out, just imaging what is going to happen when GOW2 comes November 7. I know I am looking forward to it.

You guys honestly got to admit that was a crappy update? Same stuff (almost)every friday, and yet I will be anxiously waiting again next friday. Have a nice weekend.

Do you like giving us bland updates Luke? You must love to hear our reactions when we don't find out anything new about updates to Halo 3. Not here to complain, but it was okay. I appreciate the time spent in order to put this together.

Awesome Video. By far the best Halo 3 one out there. Great music, great editing, great video!

While the video editing is awesome, I’m not going to say the same about the music. I can’t shake the image of some teen strung out on Adderall with those white headphones wrapped around his neck waving a lighter back and forth at a computer somewhere in a college library at 2 a.m.

If that doesnt describe me perfectly, i dont know what would.
