Clan Draconus Lupus - Kicking ass for over a decade (Hyncharas)

It could be argued that when it comes to flavours of the new 360 console, Microsoft has really burnt their own bridges this time. I bought a ticket to be one of the first to preorder Kinect, so when I saw they were also bringing out a new, "lighter" version of the 3rd Generation Xbox 360, I was glad because it meant I could trade-in my 1st Gen (y'know the one - without the HDMI port) console finally for a better model... WRONG! Given how much DLC content is made for games these days, a basic model with at least 80GB would've been more useful; certainly not 4GB.

I'm going to ask my store if I can trade-in my existing model for the Reach Console without the game, so I can then preorder Reach Legendary Edition as well to go with it. Kinect can wait until Christmas.

.........................Oh....my...god Bungie..........

You really are sending Halo off with a bang aren't ya?

I have only been a serious gamer for around a year, with my first 360 game being Halo 3, and I loved it. I looked into the other Halo titles, and loved Halo CE and Halo 2. I preordered ODST, and been following Halo: Reach info, as well as played the Beta. All I got to say Bungie, this might be your last Halo game (maybe) but you are certainly going down in gaming history with it. I hope, no I know your future games are going to be great. Keep going! I can't wait until September 14th.

Good luck to your future games!

Need to be fixed

2 Questions

1. So will we still be able to forge on other multiplayer maps? Not just forge world?

2. Are all Firefight games going to be versus? Can we still have all of us as Spartans, like the classic ODST firefight?

Will there be a Halo: Reach tour bus thing like there was for Halo 3: ODST? You know, the modified armored truck that went around the country to let die hard fans get a taste of Firefight?

  • 07.24.2010 7:18 PM PDT

What if the phone rang?

No their not doing that because they already released a beta and its alomst already out so I dont think they have plans to do that anytime soon
