Halo 03 |News & General| OFFICIAL


Recommended Posts

I have heard that when you play campaign on legendary you get a different ending than the one floating around on the internet.

I wouldn't probably go out and say that until after the release date has arrived.

I'll be playing on Legendary the first time through though.

Not many people know about the SP so far but apprently, someone knows enough to give it one star before anyone posts... I think someone hates you DL. :p

no, they just hate 360 and/or halo 3, thats about to CRUSH the competition :D

thats why we rate the thread 5/5 out of spite of the bashers :)

Not a leak its a legit copy (if you were implying piracy). Some people were lucky enough to get it early. Microsoft has already stated some stores sold it early...

What I was trying to get at though was that its most likely true as to what I said.

Well just checked my bank account and yay gameplay have taken the money out that means i got a Legendary Edition!

The new vidoc has made me so excited now it just looks so cool and forge looks like total fun, if you suck at mp you can just be the little orb and drop tanks and stuff on people instead!

GAME backs Halo 3 with 150 midnight openings

Matt Martin 10:14 (BST) 21/09/2007

Retailer expecting thousands to collect pre-orders

High Street retailer GAME is due to open 150 stores at midnight for the launch of Halo 3 next week.

The retailer expects thousands of customers to queue for their pre-ordered game, and will also be opening stores early on the morning of September 26.

"Halo 3 will be a huge event in towns throughout the UK, so we?re pulling out all the stops to help our customers start playing it as soon as humanly possible," said Robert Quinn, operations director at GAME.

"Over 800 GAME staff will be on duty at midnight to serve customers and keep the shelves full.

"Halo 3 is hotly anticipated by thousands of customers who have reserved it months in advance, and we are working flat out to make sure our customers are first to get the products they want," he added.

Earlier this week Microsoft revealed that it would be hosting the UK's official Halo 3 launch at London's iMax Cinema, complete with celebrities, competitions and screenings.

Oww, Play havent taken payment at all and i guess they won't until Monday now so i won't know if i got in or not.

However Virgin still haven't cancelled my order with them which i did Monday, just says "Cancellation Requested". They better sort it out because i don't want two LE Editons!

Yeah i could do but it wasn't the plan of course! Still i am sure once they sort though all the orders, Virgin will see my cancel request and hopefully act on it. Come on Play! Give me the email nofitication now to day i got one!!!

I should have ordered on gameplay with you guys.

PiracyX, the reason we have been checking our accounts is because we got an email the other day saying gameplay will process the orders early, that's why we've been checking to make sure everything is alright. Play.com will probably take payment the day they send it out, like gameplay usually do.

Sad thing though is that play are usually awful with shipping so you might not even receive on the games release day, sometimes play pull through and you get the game on the day or early.

    • Just another reason (aside from many others) not to use Edge. Firefox 153.0b5 DEx64 has a similar feature added recently in prior builds that I will turn off at some point when I get around to it. It's the new "Something looks suspicious" page that pops up here and there. It cleverly hides itself between web pages that I've actually visited; as a result, you know, of selecting a web page and telling the browser where to go. The interesting thing is that it does not produce these warnings from pages that I, as the only intelligent user of the browser in my system, have ever directed the browser to open! What seems to be happening is that the browser looks at all the goofy ad links on a web page I do actually open and selects one that "looks suspicious" and then creates the "something looks suspicious" web page, which is neatly inserted, as mentioned, between web pages my RB ("real brain") has directed the browser to load in a session. The thing is, I usually look at links I am considering to follow before I ask the browser to load them, and in cases I have noticed where the link does indeed look suspicious, most of the time I will choose to not follow the link at all. Doesn't everyone do this or something similar? I am picky about what I voluntarily load... (I don't like links that start off fine, with a site designaiton that seems normal enough but then is followed by indecipherable alphanumeric strings many, many lines long, etc. I tend to reject those because they look suspicious. They may not be, but I don't care... I'll stay with Firefox, of course, if for no other reason than they usually let you turn off the junk you don't like. And because it isn't Edge... But at some point Microsoft will come to realize that putting your bookmarks on the left side is a Good Thing for a lot of people, just as Microsoft discovered when it had the bright idea of nailing the Windows taskbar to the bottom of the screen, when for decades Microsoft browsers had left that placement up to the user. They have finally reversed the obscenity of that decision. Finally.
    • Google was using the old CATPCHAs data to train their LLMs. What is the say they won't use this camera data of users to train their LLM? these companies need some strict regulations!
    • Depends on what you need. Might be a bit clearer on what you plan to do with it. Sort of a waste if you get the newest and greatest, but don't know how to use it.
