There was a bunch of news stories floating around about a Halo 3 news story coming monday. As expected it was released today, and as I somewhat expected its the release of a map pack. So are you going to pony up the $10 now for these 3 maps or wait until Spring 2008? Continue reading »
The task at hand was simple in theory - complete legendary from start to finish in one sitting. Digilearner rounded us up a team of members from 360friendspot which included him, myself, Johndg, and Tommy Da Gip. Unfortunately Tommy had other obligations and couldn’t be our fourth gunner. Just when we thought we were going to be a 3 man show ReaperHybrid joined the party making us complete. Reaper all ready finished the story, and I am close to the end myself - but both on lower difficulty levels. John and Digi had only played the first chapter in the story thus far.
We figured while we were at it we might as well collect those pesky glowing skulls along the way - and for the most part we did great at it. Unfortunately as the night went on you could see that fatigue was starting to set it, we all were discussing the next skull that had to be collected after finishing off a scarab - but after finishing him we just kept going completely forgetting the skull.
Reaper and myself finally got to the point that we needed to get some sleep - before we had to face the attack of our wives in the morning, but we said we would go at the end of the current chapter (6 for those of you keeping track). Of course, because we had planned to leave at the end of this chapter, for the first time we actually started having difficulty surviving, it seems like we all just kept getting destroyed over and over, and we were never going to finish. I blame the fatigue, keep in mind this was the 3rd night in a row that I was up till 3-4AM playing and the kids are always up at 8am at the latest.
Finally we finished up the chapter, but unfortunately not the fight - hopefully we can get the team together again later tonight and finish it up - legendary style.
PS. Sorry you missed it tommy!
Another xbox all nighter, and this time (no suprise) its a Halo 3 all nighter. Same as always, simply play the game until you can’t play anymore, take pictures, blog about it, and most importantly let Trixie know - she tends to give out prizes like I won on a Gears Of War All Nighter
Also don’t forget as long as you register your tag (before Sept 30th) playing during this all nighter enters you into the Unite To Fight Play and Win. Which includes prizes for random particpants including the following:
So most of the people know me, know that I am no stranger to tattoos, and on my way into work I was thinking about the week long celebration for Halo 3’s release. Now I know that some might think there is no room for another Halo 3 advertisement with things like Halo 3 Slurpees, Game Fuel, Halo 3 Accessories, Halo 3 Console, Halo 3 Commericials, Halo 3 Zune, and much much more - but I beg to differ.
As you can see in the tattoo pictures, my left arm and a small portion of my right leg has been claimed - but I have plently of other marketable space for halo 3 advertising - please contact for location and pricing rates.
Fanboy is reporting that if you play halo 3 before the street date you will be banned from xbox live. Even playing the game while not connected to xbox live will get you a ban, the time a game is played is logged by your console and next connection to live will get your account banned.
Of course at theliveeye.com we have a few members that have been playing Halo 3 since 9/17, some of which are online now…..so whens this ban hammer coming?
Just looking at the Xbox.com forums you can see there are ALOT more people than we are tracking playing the game as well.
Let’s not forget early copies are sent out for review often so are they going to filter these out of the ban list - or are game reviewers going to get the banhammer for doing their jobs?
1 Week from today is the official release of Halo 3. ”Unite to Fight: Halo 3 Launch Week” adds yet another media promotion (and way for you to get cool stuff). In preparation of day one launch United States fans (boy our foreign buddies always miss out don’t they?) are invited to partake in “Unite to Fight Week”. Which will include a large assortment of Halo related events and activities. Check www.xbox.com/unitetofight for updates and more information.
Remember those Halo 3 Accessories? Well starting September 4th you can be the proud owner of the various limited edition Halo 3 accessories. The following items will be available:
Or perhaps you prefer to purchase the Messenger Kit - making it easier for all your MSN and Live message typing needs. It comes with the backlit chatpad which connects to your xbox 360 controller and an xbox 360 headset MSRP $29.99
