And remember, after all the dust has settled, Bungie will have a few extra beta spots for a few lucky and loyal community members. So one way or another, you should be able to find a way to participate in the Halo 3 Beta, fingers crossed and good luck!




Since I'm probably not going to make the rule of 3 or buy CRACKDOWN I'm hoping for that statement about there being a few lucky community members that will get a spot. I have my fingers crossed.

OK monkey boys get ready to start jumping through Bill Gates hoops.You can shove your beta where the sun doesnt shine.Shocking way to treat the people who made bungie a success by buying there games.

I sure hope that guests will be allowed in the beta. I'm itching to share the halo 3 goodness with my friends that may not get in for whatever reason.

Can the title update include new achievements and avatar awards?

Posted by: Face7Eater
It's going to include new weapons, new maps, new storyline, new characters, it's getting changed from FPS to an MMO, and biggest of all, it's now going to be based on a famous Saturday morning cartoon.

Yay good news.

  • 01.30.2007 6:12 PM PDT

Barely made first page.. wootz? Anyway sounds cool, I'm def. hitting up the 3 Hours because I just started being a part of the community and I'm not buying crackdown.

I just hope Halo3.com isn't blown up on Feb 5. Because everybody i know will be hitting F5 like crazy.

So when we go to register, do we use our Email that our Gamertag is linked to? Because I don't think mine is active anymore...

Anyone know this answer?

Playing Halo since November 17, 2001.

Do you sign up on Halo3.com immediately after the three hours of gameplay or after the three day window? Also, does it matter if the three hours of gameplay online consists of matchmaking - ranked or unranked - or even online custom games? Someone please respond!
