Subject: Operation UK (& Europe) lets get recon and complete ODST

Well I guess I better put some pants on.

I feel like I'm gonna break this thing!

For those who have realised Americans might get the game at midnight, well they're missing out on good ol' Sgt Johnson, so we can laugh at them anyway.

I have pre-ordered my copy and am expecting it a day early.

---

Halo 3: ODST is being released worldwide September 22nd.

East coast America is 5 hours behind Western Europe, so we have at least a 5 hour headstart on Americans.
If we take into account the various sites that deliver early to make sure items arrive on time for release date when pre-ordering, then we have a 29 hour headstart on our road to recon and completing ODST.

ODST is only an expansion, and the campaign is said to be around 5 hours long, so it should be doable.

Now, we don't know what the new Vidmaster achievements will be, but we do at least know that we have to get the three skulls of the new maps.

Can we do it?

I'm ready to go! Of course, I probably won't get the game until after school, at around 4:00pm, and I won't be able to play until about 430pm.

So I can't do it.

This will be no problem, i'm sure my local gamestation will be open at midnight, the problem is do i want to sacrifice the pre-ordering bonus for beating some americans to an achievement which they will have in a few hours anyway?

Do none of you have a sense of humour?
We do, this just isn't funny.

Isn't Japan almost 24 hours ahead of the UK, meaning they are 30 hours ahead of the US, so if anyone can get Recon before everyone else, it's the Japanese!

Don't upset Achronos or you'll end up with a dog's head in a jar in your mailbox.

And Singaporeans. We're like 2 hours behind Japan.

But no, no one will get Recon before anyone else. You know why? Because the Vidmaster Achievements are gonna be tougher than that.

  • 06.07.2009 5:43 AM PDT

you guys will probably beat us. us USA halo heads are going to have some catching up to do ;]

Yea the vidmasters will be more than just 'completing the campaign', so everyone will have a good chance of getting it early!

I thought about it, and decided not to. I'd rather play it when all my mates get it, so we can do campaign with 4 people.

About that, is it really not finished? I mean, the game seemed a lot more complete than when they showed Halo 2 at E3.
