hmm, ok. i say microsoft planned this from the beginning. everytime you go to "Downloads" from the main menu in Crackdown it queries the server for info about the Halo 3 beta. In other words, it asks if it is ready or not and if it is, what's the link. I'm sure it's an XML file or a simple db entry, and that there isn't a problem. Everyone at microsoft took the day off like we did except they are all playing it and we're sitting here looking at a grey'd out button. thanks ms, we all love you.

/me grabs ps3 that hasn't been touched in months and starts to play sad.gif

Well, look at the bright side, atleast Crack down has repeatative music that you can jam to while slamming your head against the wall again and again.


It goes well together imo.

somebody do please report when it finally works as i will continue here at work until it is fixed...and i am cut off from other avenues of news since bungie and xbox.com are blocked at my hospital...

bummer to all that took off work to have a great H3 day - the only good news is that the release date is 4-6 weeks better than any estimates that i had seen so far...

Well if the 4-6pm EST rumor was correct, we should hear soon from somebody as to whether or not it's available.  It should be 5pm EST right now correct?

when i tried to access the 'downloads' section it takes longer for the grey'd out button to appear. Maybe its a false sense of hope, but i think the beta will be available in a few hours *FINGERS CROSSED*

man i got shit loadz of revision for exams next week, i wanna play at least an hour of halo3 and then i'll be happy  tongue.gif

i believe the rumor was 5pm PST so that means 8pm EST which means, if true, we still have 2 and a half hours.

Well sofa king said EST, but if it's PST then it'll be 7 where I am.  They just need to hurry it up.  Missing 12 hours of the beta...they should extend the period another day.
