    Halo 3

     
    I can't wait any longer!

    Only 3 more days!

    Tomorrow I am going to go and pick up an X360 for myself...our other X360 got sent in for repairs (it was from launch).

    Only 3 days!

    I think I have lost a few years of my life just waiting for this game to come out.

    I work at a Gamestop close to where I live and we are doing midnight release for Halo 3. It sucks because I have to work for it from 9:00 at night on Monday to 2:30 Tuesday morning.

    That sounds like it would have been an awesome deal. We have a 50" Samsung DLP and it rocks!

    You could always connect it to a computer monitor.

    I haven't played any of the two, but I might just pick up this one for the x360 collection.

    Did your X360 get sent in for the infamous Red Ring of Death Ex? I am hoping mine does it so I can get a new X360 from MS. They extended the warranty because of it.

    Halo 3 is amazing!!! It's all the best things about Halo 1 and 2 combined, but without everything that was bad about them. The ending is perfect!!! it actually left me speechless. BTW if you want a really nice 50" tv, get a Vizio plasma. sure you will get slight burn ins in the beginning, but with a few months of use they stop.

    Ya, it did. It was from launch day and over the past week before it kept on crashing mid game (I think the heatsink was coming loose or something, I don't know, I wasn't going to pull it apart to check it out). Never had a problem before that though.

    In 5 hours or so I am going to go to Walmart and see whats going on.

    If there is a lot of people or they have something interesting there I might stay and wait till release.

    It got a 9.5 on Gamespot, so I don't think you'll be disappointed.

    I know I won't be disappointed, I am pretty sure I understand how the majority of the game is setup.

    exactly the same here. mate and i sat down and clocked the original on legendary, spend like 2 days straight and beat it. absolutely awesome. halo 1 was revolutionary. i haven't been game enough to play no. 2 because i just don't think it would match 1.

    Beat that? I guess I can't anymore, but for 8 weeks in the summer of 2005 I worked a 7 day a week 15 hour shift starting at 3:15 PM and going until 6:30 AM, though it wasn't really bad until the shift schedule broke down and I worked 2 weeks averaging 17+ hrs a day (those extra couple hours make a hell of a difference).

    Now, however I teach 6 class hours a week for $450/month plus an apartment, but since I'm in China, that's about 3 or 4 times what I need to live off of.
