Did you intentionally leave out if we have to pay to play online?

OK, yes, it is very true that I'm a dumb ass. I'm not denying that. However, isn't the whole point of a beta to increase the amount of users until you get someone dumb enough to try something you haven't anticipated.

For Carnage, Apply Within.

I have returned from the Untamed Lands. MOAP is dead.

Any info on the choice of using the Xbox 360 Controller [Joystick Option]?

If so how many editing options will be available fot that? Such as inverting, sensitivity on both analog sticks, etc...

Edit: Wow, that sounded like it was an interview! :-D
I'm just not that good with a key board and mouse.
You understand... right?

Wow... sounds great...

but I hope the game browser doesn't find its way into Halo 3...

The best part of Halo 2 online is the matchmaking randomness...

It just never feels right searching for a game (far cry predator) I want to know I will be put into a game with equally skilled opponeants...

thanks frankie.

"I pledge to punch all switches, to never shoot where I could use grenades, to admit the existence of no level except Total Carnage, to never use caps lock as my "run" key, and to never, ever, leave a single BoB alive."

2B || !2B - Why don't you look Inside the Machine?

I am assuming this will mean a lot less cheating...hopefully.

Also, I am waiting to see if your ranks from the Vista version can count as same as the Xbox version for your Gamertag...

I know... I used elites til I got to level 27, then I had to make the switch... I don't know why, but it just seems he is worse...

And on subject, I cant wait. I was always too cheap to buy an XBOX, but now I only have to buy an OS... Which they might upgrade free on campus...

Stosh <3's me vicariously... at least someone does...

Sounds like a bad idea to me...
