I can't believe I missed it in 5 minutes. Someone had to have had their hexidecimal to english translator ready instead of having to find it like me.


I admit, I've had the xbox.com redeem code page up, refreshing bungie.net for the new update for about an hour now. I clicked on it within 30 seconds of it being up, looked immediately in the URL and saw what I knew to be hex. I pulled this translator up within 15 seconds, got the code, and put it in xbox.com.

All within a span of about 2-3 minutes.

It's about time, too... I've been consistently trying for a code for a long time now. I've entered about 10 contests for one and lost all of them, and I've been here on bungie trying since the webcam/forum code fragments last week.

Good luck to everyone else in trying to get a code. Here's a word of advice: if a code is out of order, use this permutation generator to bring up all the possible ways it could be ordered in.

i love how people on here post bull messages that don't even mean anything. "1st". oh yeh? well done, you deserve work at bungie, and get recon, and infact you might aswell be president..... can't anyone actually converse? this weeks update was good. i love the fact the fact that some people think they deserve the mythic maps because they have "waited", well, you and every other person that plays this game. either fork out the 60 big ones for halo wars LCE like the rest of us or shut the -blam!- up.

Pluarity looks interesting. And thanks for telling people about the map errors, guys. It was getting repetitive looking at it every time I posted in the Halo 3 Forum.

Another week, another splash of wording to brighten my Friday.

That's not what he meant, and you know it urk.

I'm pretty sure we haven't got ANY NEWS WHATSOEVER about how you were supposed to win Recon in that massacre.

Even though we were promised info on it by Shishka weeks ago

HOLY MOLY those codes went quick!
I was too slow :(

For people who want to know, the codes were:

WW8QH-PTMTK-GQ6G8-F9QF7-MBGBQ
(in the url as the hexadecimal code 575738514850544d544b475136473846395146374d42474251)

J2CF9-2KCFF-MHXJX-B3JV8-WB3H8
(Towards the bottom of the page in demands justice's reply)

MVQDG-RVQ2Q-GDKPX-Y333D-YBGBT
(Highlight inbetween the paragraphs in the Gamers Outreach Foundation section)


EDIT: Oh yeah, and thanks for the update Bungie - almost forgot in the rush for the codes XD

Nice update, but was hoping for some ODST info... Guess I can wait until next week or GDC 09.

Loving the storm of codes, glad that I plucked one early on. Things look a little hectic...
Good luck to those still looking.

For everyone who hasn't gotten a code yet -- stosh posted on his twitter that he'll be hiding one in his b.net profile sometime this weekend. If I were to guess where he'd put it, I'd say it'd probably be hidden as a link in his sig, or edited into a previous post of his (like killane did a few days ago).

Good luck to everyone. Now to finally read this update (I've been too busy floating on cloud nine here)
