Some of you people are so ignorant.

You say what a bad update it was, I hate that. You were given a good reason why there wasn't much info, and if you were given this substantial amount of information you think you deserve each week, there would be nothing left for the freaking game!


We're not dissapointed that this was an insubstantial update as much as we are mad that we were promised a very exciting update this week, and we did not get one, just the usual "check back next week for pwnage"

  • 02.03.2007 5:38 PM PDT

-blam!

last weeks update said that this week would have lots of juicy info...what the -blam! is going on!?!?! you're messing with my mind!

...And so the hero crawled through the fissure on the surface of Tyr. There, the lone Dwarf stared into the cold, dark eyes of Soulblighter...The fiend hefted his blade over his shoulder as a flock of raven took upon his form...

Wait, was it meant to be spelled " Weakly " and not " Weekly " ? Amusing update, not much shown though, but some blur pictures of Halo 3 which is still nice.

The Sentinel Beam isn't excluded from Matchmaking due to any performance concerns. It's excluded because it's ridiculous. It may as well be firing super-accelerated clowns. - Shishka

I'm worried about halo 3, because if Frankie is good at it something must be wrong.

Rome, good show. Miniatures, glad you guys are doing that, should be sick. I'm not even a big wargame kinda person, and I'm excited just because of the fact that I might be able to control whole armies of grunts lol. Can't tell what level that is on Gears. Oh well. Pre-update stick version... terrible, just terrible...

So why is it that I'm only the second person to notice and mention the fact that the 360's they were playing on in the last picture were all black? I realize there are a lot of third party vendors out there who are selling black replacement cases, but if you install them you are voiding your 360 warranty (you have to break the seal on the white case to get it off). So the real question is, did Bungie bust the warranty on those 50 machines, or is Microsoft going to release an all black 360 with the launch of Halo 3?

[edit]
Look here ... there seems to be an extended grey rectangular hard drive on the top of this black 360 in this photo on the floor on the far right. Unfortuantely a second black 360 is hidden under a bunch of controllers and wires.

As far as the rest of the whining that's going on about the update being lame, it's no lamer than any of the other "lull" updates that Bungie has published over the last few years. Get over it and quit 'yer -blam!-in or they'll just shut up until release day.

Frankie: If last week you thought that the announcement of HaloClix was going to be this week's "big news", then it looks to me like HaloClix has been met by your community with a "big yawn".

My two cents.

Dev Kit 360's are black and always have been. They're for game developers.

Also, I understand some concern with the broken promise on info, but if anyone is really that mad about it, I have a feeling they should go outside and play catch or something, and stop refreshing bungie.net once every 15 minutes for the rest of their lives.
Halo 3 will come out. It will be good, it will be decent, or it will be bad. But these updates don't change that outcome - they still are a privilege that Bungie gives you to show how the game is making progress. And if it hasn't made much progress for a week, then that isn't capable of being much of an update. And your forum replies to these updates won't change a thing about the way updates are posted - except I wouldn't be surprised at this rate if Bungie just took away the updates, because it seems like no one enjoys them.
Also, Frankie has the right to break a promise, because he's the one working at Bungie making a complicated game, where things change all the time. He's also probably not in control of what he can reveal, and thus someone probably broke a promise to him.
