[TSAR]

so did anybody actually miss anything important in a failed attempt to get an early start on the beta?

 

[LJ11]

Two more people signed on, and just started up the Halo 3 beta, they weren't on before today. Whose giving out codes? :lol :lol

 

[urk]

I press launch, and nothing happens. WTF

Restart?

Maybe try this too:

Quick fix for failure to load Beta:


Go to the dashboard.
Go to the system tab
Select memory
Highlight your hard drive
Press Y
Press X, X, LB, RB, X, X
Say yes when prompted to do maintenance on your hard drive.

This removes all previous title updates and prompts you to redownload new ones.


It will be fixed automatically in an hour, but that's a shortcut. PEACE.

 

[Sean]

Someone with the beta should share their account with us.

I think it's time for you to knock on some doors, GAF needs some questions answered

[DSN2K]

WHAT people getting beta code invites still ? ... I'm at the point where I might just not bother at all, I had the whole day planned out, had some friends coming over as well this has totally screwed this up.

so pissed off.

Hey Stinkels. Where's your God now!!!!!

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

It's actually all Walt's fault. Little bastard.

lol this has no symbolic relevance but it cracks me up everytime :lol

 

[got2bekidding]

Restart?

Maybe try this too:

Bungie posted an easier way to go about that.

First, restart your Xbox 360.
Second, boot up the Halo 3 beta.
Third, while in the Halo 3 boot up sequence press up on the D-pad and hold the A button until you see the Bungie logo. If you've completed this correctly there will be a dialog box confirming maintenance has been done on your system.
Four, resume bathing in the Halo 3 Public Beta.

oh there's plenty.

they're popping up all over my friend's list. they are very big MS supporters on this forum, btw.

So Bungie knows who is who.

paying $50 for Crackdown isn't enough, though, apparently.

 

[hotsauceiswack]

I'm on now if anyone wants to play

[JavaMava]

To be fair you guys aren't missing to much.

It's like Halo 2, but %15 more awesome.

 

[disappeared]

It's a shame, but I guess we just have to wait.

These numbers are all wrong.

 

[Qwerty710710]

This is bullshit they had over month in advance to fix this problem.

 

[Smokey]

:lol :lol

I should have known better. Us Crackdown owners are gettin' dicked around. Bravo MS. Luckily I have to work at 1 pm Central and won't get home until 9:30pm. If I took the entire day off for this I would have been very pissed off. How can you not be prepared for this? I mean it's ONLY A CHANCE TO PLAY THE BIGGEST 360 GAME 3 MONTHS EARLY FFS.

 

[Karma Kramer]

oh I thought you were going to say cake. Free cake is awesome.

 

[Tokubetsu]

Did they not test this? (when I say this, I'm talking distribution via Crackdown..)

 

[SuperPac]

What a disappointment. :\ At least Aegis Wing is there to ease the pain.

 

[raYne]

These numbers are all wrong.

So it's more like Halo 1, but 200% more awesome?

By the way, shouldn't you be playing instead of posting?

 

[Hyrup66]

Hey, Bungie, can you smell that in Washington ? It's blood and it's all over the road. You know what that means ? Roadtrip to fantasy land. It's virgin blood. It smells so good, paved all over the road. The road to fantasy land is paved with the blood of virgins, Frank O'Connor.

 

[Sean]

Where's my beta code??

Wow, I wake up this morning to this huge Internet Storm about something not working with an Xbox Live scheduled download............BIG ####### SURPRISE let me tell you.

Oh well, I wll take turns playing the Forza Motorsport 2 demo and giving myself an enema until the thing finally becomes available. I suggest more people try this as it makes the time go by faster!
