I just beat Aegis with Son of Godzilla and 2 other guys, got most of the achievements and now I think I'm going to go sleep.

I knew staying up till 4am watching Commando was a bad idea.

This is never a bad idea, especially if you're looking to "let off some steam!"

Bwah-hah-ha.

Srsly, Halo 3 now, please.

It's not only that it's taking so long, but no official has decided to comment. Whether we should keep waiting or what, or just turn off our damn consoles.

It is still 7am in Seattle. I am sure they are scrambling at this moment.

When i load crackdown it says download Halo 3 Beta, but it its greyed out, what gives??
must be a problem on your end. try playing crackdown while changing your 360 from vertical to horizontal. repeat 2-3x.

Caps Lock am broke?
 
I will say that, on a system that's DRM'd to hell and gone like the 360, which is already set-up to associate downloads with the serial number of a specific console, that I'm surprised Bungie and MS couldn't come up with a more elegant scheme to let Crackdown owners register to download the beta directly from the marketplace and ensure it's going to the system Crackdown was played on.

I have to figure this is really because while the beta scheme with Crackdown was a /brilliant/ marketing ploy, nobody really cared too much about the end user/beta testers beyond getting them to buy copies of Crackdown (mission accomplished).

Having said that...

All the people freaking out because they only bought Crackdown to get the Halo 3 beta are, well :lol I'm sorry guys, it's just such a stereotype. Your money got you a game as good as Crackdown. You /should/ be happy you got Crackdown, instead of whining about a free, temporary beta that's going to suicide in a mere three weeks. No matter how much the roll-out of said beta has been clownishly bungled.

Ya know I really love arcade fire but you're really just on the line for me. <_M
