Subject: Will bungie shut down the Halo 3 servers?

Will bungie shut down the Halo 3 servers like they did with halo 2? I also got this message from youtube saying to populate the servers on sept 25, 2pm eastern time. Is anyone participating in that?

Neither Bungie or 343 have said that the servers will be shutting down

The only way the servers will be shut down is by the xbox 360 live being shut down...Halo 3 and Reach run on the same servers..therefore they would have to shut down reaches to...thats not going to happen...and that date is the 4th anniversery of Halo 3 release...so everyone wants to repopulate the game that day to show them...

I run Skirmish!!!

i counted 3 threads including yours on just the first two pages of the halo 3 forums asking the same question.

i suggest researching what your about to create before creating a thread so you look less retarded... (granted you believed something off of youtube, so your already stupid)

343 IS Microsoft. It's just the branch that controls Halo. And Bungie never 'sold' Halo to them. Microsoft bought Bungie over a decade ago and with it they got Halo. Bungie split from Microsoft in... I believe late 2007 or early 2008. Microsoft kept the Halo IP. Which they already owned. And had owned for years.

Halo 3 and Halo: Reach do not run on the same servers. Halo 3 runs off of the old Halo: Reach Beta servers, while Reach runs off its own servers.
