If thats the case it totally sucks, no more double team with someone you actually know. The great thing about Halo 2 was that you could play with a variety of different leveled players in the same party, say a 5, 12, and 18 leveled players could all join a ranked matchmaking playlist and play. People would only occasionally play unranked gametypes, usually when guests were over. This would completly kill matchmaking if they made it so.

i hope that's not true and I haven't heard anything about it.

i'm sure it'll be identical to halo 2, where you can't play ranked gametypes with guests on your xbox live account.

so if you have someone over at your house who is a guest and you guys are playing split screen, you cannot play ranked games that way.

it's goign to be the same way as Halo 2 as far as I know. I'm sure they won't change it for the worse. gears of war ruined their ranked gameplay when they made it impossible to get into a game w/your friend. I really REALLY doubt bungie would do this.

Is it just me or did you hate GOW multi? It's just a rush for the weapons...you can't do any damage at all with the starting gun...and no grenades. Just felt it was pretty flawed...couldn't ever get into it.

Yah it was you

I loved GoW multiplayer. The starting weapons were just fine.

Honestly GoW is more of a strategy game than anything.

And whenever I would play with random people I would get crushed. You need a good team to do well.

Check out the update to the Halo 3 "Believe" page.

New trailer of the diorama. A making of for the diorama and a pretty freaking awesome interactive 'fly through' of the diorama.

I just want to warn everyone here that videos of the Halo 3 ending are circulating around the internet, I haven't seen them myself, but there are several reports of this on many sites. Watch what you click on!

I didn't know that it was already leaked. I know that they were sold early in different countries.

Halo 3 hits the torrents

Microsoft and Bungie's Halo 3 has been leaked onto the internet, with multiple file-sharing sites hosting the highly-anticipated shooter.

Uploaded within the past 24 hours, the 6.14 gigabyte file has been hacked and will be playable on illegally modified Xbox 360 consoles.

It's the latest upset to hit the release of the game, which isn't officially due until early next week.

High Street retailer Argos began selling the game in a select number of stores this week, but soon corrected its mistake. Microsoft told GamesIndustry.biz that it would not punish the retailer following the blunder.

And consumers hoping to avoid spoilers of the game were also advised to avoid video sharing site YouTube, where the ending for the game has been available since the start of the week.

Is this how purbeast got to play it?

Im debating on whether I want to force myself to wait for my 24" CRT to come. Would be particularly bad ass to play on.

Still, im really jealous of all you guys that got it early.

In other news, god has again punished me by putting Halo 3, Crysis demo, the Office, and two tests in the same week, along with work every night

I think you've just subconsiouly prioritized everything by listing them like you did . Take that as a sign from god, and just go with it .

Hah, I saw purbeast on there last night and sent a message calling him a certain bad name . I knew better than to ask him where he got it, though. Not saying that purbeast pirated it, but I just wanted to add that this is one the things that suck about software pirates....they get to play the most anticipated games before we do.

How could you get online with a hacked game ? I thought they could ban you for that.

and here ... I hope this puts all the PIRACY claims to an end!!

SUCK ON IT!

Cool, rate the SP gameplay 1-10.

I've only played the first level and part of the 2nd one. So far it's pretty much what I expected.

I never really played Halo games for single player in general. I didn't even finish Halo 2.

I'd give it like an 8 out of 10 probably.
