halo 2 was leaked like a month before. it was the french copy though

Ah yes, I remember those days. I was so excited to see Halo 2 on my TV before most of the world and find out it was in French. Took forever and a day to download. Too bad I don't have my xbox anymore...oh well

If you haven't heard from Play already, I'd say it's safe your copy is reserved. What ever you do, don't cancel it :p

I've not bought from Virgin before, but I do know Green_Eye from Neowin got his copy of Bioshock on release date. Heard all kinds of stories about HMV though. Maybe that was s*** service in the past though?

I've always had great service from Play as well, but their free post is a little slow hence why I never preorder with them. They always get stuff to me in the time frame they set too. Don't sit and worry over it though honestly :) Watch some more vidocs or gameplay videos :D

Yep that true and I had pre-ordered only six days before the launch date and really did NOT expect them to get it to me on launch day needless to say I was very happy and went ahead and pre-ordered collectors edition of Halo3 from them having full confidence in their shipping :)

ohh and for the record those of you who know about my 360 dying well a VERY generous friend of mine is lending me his 360 console till I get mine back from repair :D

Looks like I will be there with ya'll to kick all sorts of butt come 26th :p :shifty:

I've checked nearly every store I can think of near me, for about a 30 mile radius (west of Cleveland, OH). I'm thinking of heading out to Sandusky tomorrow and seeing if I can score anything there. But as of now, there's only one store I've been to that I've actually even seen the game at. I almost held it, too. Almost walked out with it. But the manager told the clerk he couldn't sell it till Tuesday. After they'd opened the box. After they'd teased me.

And then, to add insult to injury, that same manager unloaded the box they'd shipped in and sat there reading the back of one of the cases, the whole time glancing over at me.

I am very pleased what microsoft and mainly bungie have put into this game. the gameplay is amazing, looks awesome on my romates 50" DLP in a dark room.

The only complaint I have is that playing co-op is wasn't full screen all the way, it had the bars on the side.

The game didn't take long to beat because we liked the story line. I will not be giving away any spoilers.

      The only reason I want to know where you from is because if you are not from the U.K, then why should you care what we in the U.K do or don't do? Racist I am not, I am fed up with the amount coming over here and feel they can come over here and think we need to support them. Do you know how much it costs this country to support these people coming over here? Even when we give them a place to live it is not good enough. We had a barge that was being used to house immigrants, oh but that was not good enough. A mate said to me at the time, when he was homeless, he would have been happy to live on the barge, instead of ending up sleeping on a bench on the beach. I am not scared to say what my family heritage is, unlike you who is scared to say where they are from or where they live. Father side U.S, mother side Wales, still have family living in the U.S. A mate who sadly died a few years ago, had a load of people from different races recording in his studio, I got on with all of them. Skin colour don't bother me, where they are from don't bother me. Religion don't bother me as long as they don't push it onto me and it is not crazy stuff. I am not religious. But if you are not living in the U.K, then why should you care if we are in the E.U or not? This the problem, too many people poking their noses into where it don't belong. But you believe what you believe, if you think I am racist, then be it, I really do not care. Just grow a pair

      If he hasn't been able to figure that out, then why is he obsessed with tariffs? Because that's one of the most prominent tools to level the playing field when you have high cost of labor.
    • Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5102558, KB5095615 Setup and Recovery updates

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft released Windows 11 KB5102558, KB5095615 Setup and Recovery updates by Sayan Sen This past week Microsoft released the newest preview update (C-release) under KB5095093. Alongside those, Microsoft also released new dynamic updates. For those who may not know, dynamic updates bring improvements to the Windows Recovery process in the form of Windows Recovery Environment (WinRE) updates, which are also called Safe OS updates. The dynamic updates also affect the Setup file binaries in the form of Setup updates. These Dynamic Update packages are meant to be applied to existing Windows images prior to their deployment. Dynamic Updates also help preserve Language Pack (LP) and Features on Demand (FODs) content during the upgrade process. VBScript, for example, is currently an FOD on Windows 11 24H2. This time both recovery and setup updates were released for Windows 11. The company writes: "KB5095186: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Windows 11, version 26H1: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to the Windows recovery environment (WinRE). After installing this update, the WinRE version installed on the device should be 10.0.28000.2335. KB5102558: Setup Dynamic Update for Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to Windows setup binaries or any files that setup uses for feature updates in Windows 11, version 24H2 and Windows 11, version 25H2. KB5095615: Safe OS Dynamic Update for Windows 11, versions 24H2 and 25H2: June 23, 2026 This update makes improvements to the Windows recovery environment (WinRE). After installing this update, the WinRE version installed on the device should be 10.0.26100.8737." Microsoft notes that both the Recovery and Setup updates will be downloaded and installed automatically via the Windows Update channel.
