Benaiah went down into a pit on a snowy day and killed a lion.

Luke,

Having been a regular reader of the weekly update for several years now, I recognized your shtick instantly. Thanks for filling in. Urk does a fine job, really. Nevertheless, you are missed even as the bald one is missed.

The bald one is indeed missed by all of us.
I don't know, but the achievemennts seem to remind me a bit of the ODST achievements, not that they were bad, but it seem so much more campaign focused, which is great so that I won't need to hear kids that haven't hit puberty yet squealing about how they want to do achievements in free-for-all,

I'm so glad I waited patiently for exclusive retailer content like the one discussed in the update.

Now after waiting for several months, I'll go early on Monday and pre-order my Legendary Edition from Gamestop!

:D

Great update!

I can't even get people to help me with Halo 3's Legendary campaign. but requiring you to do it alone? so mean. getting achievements with your friends is part of the fun of playing co-op :(

I have mixed feelings about the low multiplayer achievements on one hand I like it cause it keeps those trying to boost from well boosting.
On the other hand some of these were my favorites because they were so hard to get that when I finally pulled it off it created a new cherished memory of Halo 3.
I hope at some point that there might be some sort of vidmaster achievements cause those were really fun to meet new people online and tackle them. I've made some really cool life long xbox live friends ;)

Nice Up, Lukey. Not too shabby for being waaaaaaaay out of practice. I enjoy your employed strategy of jamming the update full of goodies for positive results :P

Really, though, nice work ;)

s3x on the flag

The only piece of armor worth having would be a codpiece, and there ain't gonna be none of those.

I hope sombody from bungie reads this far into the forums cuz bungie need to pass along the word to Microsoft that a special eddition halo reach xbox 360 useing the new ones or whatever none the less they would make money off the deal just look at how much they've allredy made from preorders for reach just from the legendary eddition alone not including standard and limited so do it plz!!!!

Exalted is considered "the highest" because you can't get any bans or warnings of any kind for quite a long time, which is harder than just being a member for a long time.

Lukems is back with football analogies in tow!

Since it's the fourth quarter, does that mean you'll be giving us our weekly dose until release??

My Best Bungie moment: finally beating all the Halo games on solo legendary.
My Worst Bungie moment: not seeing giant stuffie grunts in the Bungie store.

Awesome, the skunk icon is hilarious.

Burn bright; burn blue.

Why do my pants get shorter when reading new info about a game I've lusted after for at least a year?

I'm liking the new Achievement requirements. I'm all about "Right place at the right time", except for Overkill. Stupid medal...

I absolutely love the dirty and used look for the medals.

  • 07.12.2010 2:43 PM PDT

because this is probably one of the first if not THE FIRST time youve done this I must say "good job" and also that you picked one of what I think is the worse days to do the update because this is one of the days that you couldnt tell us much about the game only the process
