Bro, they are raising it even for those of us who paid it in full . You didn't get the voicemail from their automated system today? You can either go to the store now and get a lesser version for a cheaper price or just wait till it comes out where you will pay the difference between $130 and 100.

My Brother-in-law is. He's staying with us for his current quarter in school. Can't wait till the beta is released so we can try it out.

hey I dont follow any Halo boards and/or circles.. but I was curious - what are people's general thoughts on that Energy Blade from Halo 2? Too powerful? I thought it was too powerful when used by the right hands... but damn did I love targeting some of my friends with that striking deathblow.. that is some satisfaction.. It appears that it may not be in Halo 3?

I don't know about the general but I didn't mind it. I like the idea of able to dogde the quickstrike, it makes you feel like a hero. And I always knocked down the swords with a shotty. I mainly used swords for launching and random stuff.

You don't have to, but if you buy one we won't make fun of you.

I don't own a 360 yet either even though I have halo 3 on pre-order

Big suprise IMO... The release date for Halo3 is September 25th, up from the expected November release date.

http://www.bungie.net/News/content.a...news&cid=12467

We said Fall 2007, but did you expect Halo 3’s release date to be just two days into the Fall? On September 25, 2007 (just two days after the Autumnal Equinox), players will be able to finish the fight they started in Halo: Combat Evolved and continued in Halo 2. Halo 3 will release in Europe on September 26, 2007. Worldwide dates may vary slightly depending on local rules and conditions.

Oh I don't doubt it. I know I was going to buy it, just didn't need to buy it till Halo came out since that was the game I'd be spending hours on.

What are you still reading for? What more could you possibly want to know? Halo 3. Beta. May 16. Joy. Ok, if you insist, we can tell you a little bit more, straight from Microsoft's official announcement this morning. It's going to be begin at 5 a.m. PDT on May 16 and run for three weeks, until June 6. You'll need to have done the whole "Rule of Three" thing or bought your specially-marked copy of Crackdown and be an Xbox Live Gold member to get all up in heaven. Bungie's reminding fans that it's still a beta and there will be some rough edges, but that it will look "somewhat close" to the final game.

In the beta, you'll get your grubby mitts on three maps, "Snowbound," "High Ground" and "Valhalla," which "represent a mixture of large- and medium-scale combat environments." You'll also get new vehicles, like the Mongoose all-terrain vehicle, and weapons like the new and improved Assault Rifle, Brute Spiker, Spartan Laser and the new Spike Grenades. A lot of the new content is available in a new Halo 3 feature on Xbox Live Marketplace and at Bungie's site called "Quisnam Protero Damno!". So, what are waiting for? Go watch the doc, go buy Crackdown and find a crossword puzzle that'll take you a month to finish.

My brother in law told me this morning when he tried that something failed on microsofts end and that they said they are working on it with no ETA on when it would be fixed.

I haven't been able to find a link stating what went wrong.

They had a problem with accessing the Beta from the Crackdown disk. Supposedly it should be up in a few hours
