The Halo 3 Beta Thread

How I feel about this situation:

c319f15e1e9a78f4b4dc098a6c6aa1.gif
 
Sing to the tune of Michael Jackson's Beat It (chorus):

Beta, beta
Beta, beta
I just really wanna play ya
Don't want it tomorrow,
Don't want it next week
It don't matter
If they call me a freak
Just beta, beta, beta, beta, beta, beta
Oooooh

I DID A LINE OF COKE, A CAN OF RED BULL, AND TWO CIGARETTES TO PUMP MYSELF UP FOR THE BETA AND NOW MY HEART SOUNDS LIKE IT'S DYING. AS IF THAT WASN'T BAD ENOUGH, IT SEEMS MY CAPS LOCK IS STUCK. THANKS ALOT MICROSOFT.

Why do I have a feeling that some people are seriously going to injure themselves or others over this?

OH MY GOD IT'S THOMPSON HE'S BEHIND IT ALL
 
This will take an hour to download at least, I will have 20 minutes to play, and then I won't be home until around 4 Pacific. :( I should've have woken up at 4:55.

Guys don't be so quick to jump on MS. What if the wife of the guy in charge got cancer or something. :( It'd be just mean if he got fired for visiting his cancerous wife.

Why did his wife get cancer during the Halo 3 beta? Dumb brood.

lol you sick Bungie loving kid.

I hope its not delayed past noon...or did I just jinx it...
 
Screw this, I'm playing Crackdown...

that is if it's not already a molten pile of plastic from being in my 360 for the 9 straight hours it's been on.
 
the delay is now caused by an emergency meeting with PR as to how they can possibly make this a free Marketplace demo without incurring the wrath of everyone who paid for Crackdown just to play Halo 3.
 
XD i'd hate to be the poor sob who's 360 shits the bed today, and they miss the whole beta because it's getting fixed :lol

If that seriously happens to me, I'll go to the hardware store later and buy all the things I need for the X-Clamp fix. **** the warranty.

also since this thread is moving so fast, im going to jinx this to happening to whoever posts 2 posts after this one :lol
 
This is ridiculous....how in the **** could they have messed this up? How many people were involved in this ****ing thing, every single one of them dropped the ball? My goodness....

thing is we've been waiting so long when the button actually does goes blue we wont believe it and keep refreshing :lol
Click to expand...

The button has always been blue. We've been waiting for it to turn gray.

2 + 2 = 5
 
I mean I expected slow download speeds and havoc and all of that, but how do you possibly **** up delivering your most significant and most hyped piece of content on 360 when you endlessly prated about when it would be available.

"Crackdown Delay: We Know!
Posted by Frankie at 5/16/2007 5:22 AM PDT
With any luck this will be a short delay. People enetering the Beta through other methods - Friends and Family, Rule of Three and so on, are unaffected."

Yep, we are not F&F, we are not the winners of some random contest. We are costumers and thus we deserve to be raped. I dont think I will forget this one MS... I can only take so much.
