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:

wanna give me a link. lol

haha . .. its been easily available if you know where to look for a day or so now, :p

. . I have mine on pre-order . . .and have already taken off work for tuesday and wednesday to enjoy Halo 3 without disruption. .. Can't Wait !!!!!

This game is going to be worth every cent . . :) (theres no reason not to buy this game if you are any sort of a halo fan)

btw. . . Heroes season 2 and Halo 3 in the same week . .. pure bliss

ofcourse its gona leak come on guys! Its the game everyone is waiting for. This is one game I am glad I bought! I can't wait to join some live games! This is a game that you dont want to pirate guys! Buy it trust me! Its worth it!

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.

    • I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."
    • “Could” … in the IS the healthcare is run by insurance companies that make indecent profits denying basic treatments to people that are paying money for nothing.

    • Microsoft Teams gets smarter at spotting sneaky meeting bots by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is set to receive a couple of new features soon, including a dedicated Recap app and a rather controversial location tracking functionality. The Redmond tech giant has also explained how it has made online communication and collaboration a lot more performant this year. Now, the company has detailed more secure bot admission mechanisms, as first reported by us in March 2026, and now available in Teams. As the use of AI has expanded across enterprise environments, Microsoft has begun allowing users to integrate bots into their meetings for various tasks, such as note-taking. While this has a tangible productivity benefit for users, Microsoft has highlighted how misconfiguration has allowed bots to join meetings that they shouldn't. This has created security and privacy risks, which Microsoft is now combating using a new Teams admin policy that allows organizers to control how external bots access meetings. Admins can leverage a policy called Manage external bots and their access to meetings. The default configuration is "When detected, require approval before joining", which places detected bots in a lobby before they are explicitly admitted into the meeting. The other option disables the experience. Microsoft has also requested admins to only allow organizers and co-organizers to manage access to a meeting, so that other people don't randomly allow bots into meetings. Teams will now be able to leverage infrastructure signals to intelligently detect and distinguish between bots and humans. Microsoft will soon also trial a registration experience for independent software vendors (ISVs) to build a system that registers a bot with Microsoft, so it is marked as a "known" bot. Teams will also categorize bots as trusted and suspected threats so that organizers can quickly identify which bots they want to allow into a meeting. Additional safeguards to block accidental admission of a bot into a meeting include: No one-click Admit option for identified bots Confirmation prompts when admitting participants that include bots Warnings when organizers choose Admit all, and bots are included Microsoft has begun rolling out this experience, and it will be retiring the current CAPTCHA verification implementation. In the future, the company plans to roll out new capabilities like allow-lists, organization-wide policies, admin reports, audit logs, and more granular controls.
    • With the current hardware prices Microsoft should lift the restriction. Then if you have the correct TPM then allow you to use X feature, if you don't have the correct TPM then don't but still actually let you run windows. 11. With a disclaimer during install that X features would be unavailable.
