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.

[/edit]


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.

Damn right! Atleast someone has some sense! They migt have planned on getting some huge something or other but sometimes they can't get to it because of a big glich the found or something! Would you rather Halo 3 just showed up on shelves one day and no one knew about it even coming out?

I'm not usually the one to be angry at lack of info, but this is starting to get a bit boring. You keep making the same promises about how there will be new info in the next update, but it doesn't happen.

[quote]Nothing much to see this week, so move along if you're expecting a huge revelation. Some good news about multiplayer matchmaking and a couple of interesting images. We'll have more exciting stuff next week, but for now, on with the show. "

I do enjoy the weapon updates, but people want new screens. Using the same stuff over and over again isn't interesting.


I think what he meant was: This update was exciting and next update would be exciting also... Frankie needs a vacation[/quote
Here here! Lets all chip in and get him a vacation somewhere!!
and of course they arent gunna show much!!! theres still atleast a year until the game comes out!!! be paitent! it will come!!!

I noticed a lot of people were complaining about this update, but they did reveal information this week about the spartan laser and other things. He never said in the next weekly update, so maybe that's what he meant. Just a thought....

You guys may not ever read this but oh well. Microsoft or whoever is in charge of the rule of 3 thing didn't think things through very well. First off, my friend and I played 4 hours worth of halo 2 matchmaking ranked from midnight to 4 in the morning, yet apparently I've only played 176 minutes instead of the required 180 minutes. Plus, if this is all eastern, and I'm on the west coast, why can't I even register yet? I should have been able to 2 hours ago. This means I have to wait till midnight again, which means the east coast already signed up 3 hours ago, which makes everybodies chances on the west coast extremely slim which is retarded. Bungie is in Washington! Why doesn't the west coast get equal rights in this beta thing... booo. If I end up in the waahmbulance, so be it. I'm not doggin' out you guys. I'm just angry that people on the west coast have a better chance at getting into halo 3 beta than people on the east coast...

MAN I HEAR YUH VASH, THIS STINKS.

Betray me for a weapon and I WILL invariably and unquestionably boot you.

Once again, mad props to Bungie for launching halo on another leap into another media field. This is quite ironic however that it happened to be heroclix. I have never played the game myself but have really wished bungie would expand it to another miniatures game called Heroscape... at any rate if noone from bunge ever reads this and that never were to happen at least there are now some perfect miniatures I could easily tailor to fit heroscape.
and once again (now a tradition) I beg of a shooter, and it would work perfectly with halo 3, to add PROX MINES. It never ceases to amaze me that despite the fanaticism of goldeneye players in the past about this object no shooter has ever followed suit and incorporated said item to such levels. Halo 3 with the spike grenades would work perfectly by simply adding a changeable time delay control with an option of infinite which would mean explodes on irritation or PROX MINE! BRING BACK THE PROX MINES! PLEASE OH PLEASE OH PLEASE!

Verbose, as usual.

Actually, the update was exactly as described in the title.

Now, if only there were some kind of anti blurring software that I could use on that last pic... hmmm
