what if your 16 can you still enter


People, look at the rules. If it says 17 or older, they mean 17 or older. If you're 16, we're all sorry, but they want people that will take this serious and have nightly chances to play the Beta and will be willing to give serious feedback about the game.


i'm 15 and i'm willing to give serious feedback if i were in the beta. i think the 17 year or older age requirment is dumb. when we goto www.halo3.com and register with our windows live ID that is linked to our gamertag then they will know we are under 17 but we should at least be able to enter the email address that is set up with the parental control on our xbox's for parental approval. i registered on www.halo3.com for phase 1 of the beta testing, i wasn't successfull so this was going to be my last resource. sure crackdown is a great game and all but i don't really want to buy it just for the beta testing. i buy all my own games and im only 15. my mom will buy me a game here and there but usaully it's me who has to pay. so i just wish bungie could do the parental aproval thing so kids in my age group will have another chance, otherwise, i just i wasted time from 12:00 to 4:30am. well not really wasted i played a sick game :D

While you may be more than qualified, i'm sure the rules are for legal reasons and not any opinion of Bungies.

I love how there are 8 pages of questions on this topic, and we haven't received a single oficial response!

So much confusion, and only 1 hour (supposedly), until this thing gets underway.

All of the times given in the Rule of Three description are EST, kind of disappointing that Bungie hasn't specified any of these details.

(PARTICULARLY since the contest is on a first-come-first-serve basis)

Im new and everything and my say probably has no stand, but since there is not time on halo3.com stated, I bet that registration time will take place at some random time or like 3:33 maybe.

It didn't say what time zone, it just said Feb. 5th. Could probably be PST. All the forum posts are in that time. Says we're all posting on the 4th
