Subject: Halo 1 Visual Flair a Joke Now.

All of the toils and hardships and labors of our ancestors produced us. We are their greatest creations; we are humanity's finest products. Mass production seems to have made an impact on quality though...

Yeah all those people that went out, bought it yesterday, and never will play it are missing out on some great fun. its just too bad everyone with a 20 dollar bill in their wallet and reach paid for will get the emblem on their name. They don't know how ignorant they look...

I fully understand the anger that you all feel for them lifting the limit.
But it makes me happy, because I can get the flair now!

BUT

I played Halo PC for a good year 1/2 - 2 years (<3 CTF Danger Canyon... don't know why, just always did)... then eventually lost the disc... Then found it 5 months later... then lost it again... then about 6 months ago (literally weeks before this was announced) I threw out the old case with the Key on it.
>.<

At least now I can have a second chance :)

But if I still had my key, I'd definitely prefer it was exclusive.

---------
Ah, forgot to mention that ontop of just throwing out the key a few weeks before... literally the DAY I saw that Halo PC codes were related to Reach (in B-net community thread) I had just done a clean install of Windows 7 on my old laptop which had Halo installed, with the key in the registry.
GAH! :P

Yeah it is pretty dumb that tons of people can now get this emblem when they have never played the game, but the real Halo 1 players(myself included) who have been playing since launch don't get anything special if we no longer have our codes(still got my 3 copies on Xbox since I still LAN it often, but I lost one copy for PC, and my second I lent to a friend who told me he lost it...). I would have liked to show off some H1 love for those few times I get a chance to play Reach, but not really that big of a deal. Can at least show off my Marathon support I guess!

im in high school, im 17 and i have played halo since i can remember. i have my case right here next to me, i played a load of mp. heck, i even used to play lan at school. so many good times. and yeah i agree with OP, it is a joke. i dont think bungie can do anything about it, i guess that if you played halo 2 online on the xbox which some of the noobs who go and buy one just for the title thing havnt, thats what i will be using.
