I feel old.

I'm a little bit late but oh well. I cannot wait to see what you guys will be doing in the future, When I got halo 3 last I don't think I had ever had as much fun playing a video and even waiting for one. Its been a great year, I hope you continue to make games that capture peoples imagination.

There's no need for me to go into details about 14-hour marathon LAN parties, or my friends and I arriving at Gamestop at 10:30 to wait for an hour and a half, trash talking everyone else in line. I remember that same night we stayed up the whole night and skipped all of our classes to finish the campaign.

Keep up the good work, Bungie. No pressure.

Was that for PAX? I never saw the G4TV re-run!


Yeah, it was in the "feed" and it's about eight minutes long, full of assembly goodness. I never knew how they made the scarabs, now I do. You can find the video here.

Still love you Bungie, and the screen brought back some memories, now that I think of playing legendary on Halo 1 was a pain. :)

HEY GUESS WHAT GEARS OF WAR 2 IS COMING OUT IN 41 DAYS SO MANY PEOPLE WILL BE PLAYING THAT! NO ONE WILL PLAY THIS -blam!- GAME SO HAHAHAHAHAHAAH -blam!- YOUR SELFS BUNGIE


HEY GUESS WHAT?! Go post erroneous crap like this where it belongs: the gears forum.
I have an idea! If you hate this game so much why do you post in it's forums, specifically in one congratulating Bungie on an amazing year and game?

Grow up.

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

Nice Update! I'm gonna check my service record and stuff right now actually...

I have one question: When I take a picture on my 360, it goes to Bungie.net. Well, once I think about a really cool name for the screenshot, I'll change the name...except the name or description on Bungie.net isn't changed... I'd just like to see a change in that if it were possible.

  • 09.27.2008 8:15 AM PDT

I really dont understand all the praise for the update. It basically said that the fileshare page is updated. Whoopy! I just want some info.

I know I sound like a broken record, but I want new maps. Those achievements are sooooo much of a -blam!- tease its not funny.

  • 09.27.2008 8:18 AM PDT

Anyone fancy a vindaloo?

I love Bungie. Even if they do refrain from explaining all the secret awesomeness they're working on, I know that they're doing it for me. Thanks for making me stuff!

Then there are the people who poop in the mash potatoes. Those people get launched out on their asses.

Ha, my most memorable event from Halo 3 was telling my boss I needed to leave work early to play a videogame. He was all confused. Told him to watch the news that night. The next day he was all "Your right. that was probably worth it be part of that".

Totally was : )

  • 09.27.2008 8:43 AM PDT

Nice to see you Sketch! YOu are my favorite after Frankie.....

But anyway my favorite Halo 3 memory happened in a long time ago. I was playing social team slayer and had a sniper rifle. I was walking around and saw that all four players on their team were lined up in a single file line, and were about 10 yards away. I scoped in to 5x magnification and shot once hoping to at least get one from behind. The bullet passed through all their heads ricocheted and hit some fusion coils. The fusion coils blew up and killed me.

But the really funny part was what the announcer guy said:

"Overkill!"
"Extermination"
"Suicide!" (It is funnier when you say it out loud if you say "You committed suicide!")

That was the only extermination I ever got.

I was laughing for the next ten minutes. Sadly I did not know what "Theater" was back then. =(

But my second happiest memory is going to happen when you guys at least answer me about this thread.

Very, very nice update !!

Secret Ninja Member.

Gosh, I can't thank you enough Bungie.

All of my closest friends and I split up to go our separate ways to different colleges, and Halo has really been the only way we can still get together regularly to joke around and have a good time.

No Mythic news, no Keep it Clean news. Ya know, there are sometimes when you can drop a couple of hints and not really give any info, and we get all psyched. And then there are times like now, the one year anniversary of Halo 3, where you really should come out big with the update and give us some Mythic news or some Keep it Clean news.

Sure, the new File Share stuff is nice, but IMO the File Share system itself needs a lot of work, and I still feel that it, and the Service Record viewable from inside Halo 3 are in need of some SERIOUS overhauling. It's just my opinion, but I really feel like efforts to revamp or update something might be better spent elsewhere.

The fact that I can't see the name of the military rank that I have in an individual playlist from my profile/service record is just plain stupid. Seriously guys, what the hell?

I understand the update completely and I love it I even bregged about it on gearsofwar.com everyone on there got mad but hey gears and halo are completely different games. I like them both.
I do understand the banhammer2.0 but i never boost or violate any of the rules because its just not halo like. i do glitches in custom but never in matchmade games
I was working on the lightswitch achievement that everyone has now and i was legit playing multi team on social and in the middle of a game BOOM (youre xbox 360 console has been banned from earning EXP) Im not mad i can still play atchmaking but just cant earn EXP

A lot of peple are going to say you deserve it and what not BUT i dont cheat in halo.
BUNGIE if you could just tell me how long ill take the ban TOO bad i cant get the 7 on 7.

if im wrong correct me but i have 7 in team slayer on the 7th can i just go in anf get the achievement.
