  Halo 3 Beta!!!

  Well it's not all about the Halo 3 Beta. I just thought if I put that in the title, people would read it. As you know, people can sell anything if Halo is in it (See Crackdown). Anyways, the Beta is pretty sick! I am skipping my third day of school to play it (I must be a terrible student).
  
  Gameplay
  Just as fun as Halo 2, with a lot less duel weilding. Feels like Halo 1 almost. PLEASE BRING BACK RACE!!! Hearing all the gunfights from across the map is cool =)
  
  Weapons
  The Assault Rifle is my weapon of choice. At first, I hated using the Spartan Laster, but after getting the hang of it, I'm usually the one grabbing it in any map. The spiker Grande is useless unless it is super close to the target or stuck to them. The rockets seemed to have slowed down. Detachable gun turrets ZOMG!!! Spiker Pistol is only good when duel weiling. SMG = meh. Noob combo sucks? I love this game! Carbine is better then BR? I really love this game. Needlers might be infused with crack... 
  MIA - Sword, Human Pistol, Sentinal Beam (Does anyone care for that gun?)
  
  Graphics
  Pretty water. Realtime (Leaves falling from trees). OMG, I can see myself in your visor! And Remember kids, everything is very detailed when veiwed up close.
  
  Halo 3 is released on Tuesday September 25th, 2007 in North America. I will, and I'm sure a lot of people, will be camping outside the store so I can be the first to play it. I don't care what ****I will be missing. I will be finishing the fight.
  
  So Blizzard and Company have put up a timeline of the games they have released over the years. In case you didn't know, They are announdceing a new game tomorrow. Starcraft 2. I have to work tomorrw, so I won't find out until 8ish :S

  How about an Update?

  Yeah, it's been a while. So I went a few months there without updating or getting any games lol. Since New Years, I got World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade, Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2, Guitar Hero II and The Elder Scrolls IV: Shivering Isles. A of those games are pretty tight. I love being the Blood Elves in WOW, and than I'll see a level 60 on the second day the game is out and realize that some people have no lives. I don't feel that GRAW 2 is a sequel because it has a short campaign and very similar graphics. Oh well, I still enjoyed it. I have been waiting for Guitar Hero for Xbox for the longest time. It's so good that it's finally here, I just don't like hear that we might not get downloadable songs because of a possible GH3 coming out this fall. Sucks when developers screw you like that. And finally, Shivering Isles. This is a GREAT expansion. It adds achievements, a whole new world to roam around in, new weapons and armor, and of course, a whole new story. The only problem I had with it is you have to play through it twice to get all the achievements. Still, it was fun to play through it twice as every choice you make in the Shivering Isles changes how people will react to you.
  
  People have being reacting to the http//rev64.com site that Ubisoft is promoting. I've been there myself and it's true that all three franchises are mentioned in the audio and video to the side you have to make out for yourself. But this game takes place in like 2024. This is at least 10 years are GRAW 2. Sam would be in his 70's, Mitchell might not be in command of the Ghosts anymore, and I don't know where they're going with Rainbow Six anymore...My theory is that well, the last game of each series, as of now, had a cliffhanger ending spelling out a sequel for all of the franchises. Maybe they have to work together to stop WWIII. I don't really know, but I want this game. I guess their marketing ploy is working lol.
  
  New Halo 2 maps of old Halo 1 maps come out on Tuesday. They will not be available over the Xbox Live Marketplace because MS wants everybody to have them because not everyone has an Xbox 360. That's cool; I'll play Halo 2 again for more maps. But Next month is big for Halo, as the Halo 3 Beta begins on May 16th! That means I'll be playing Halo 3 when I should be studying for exams and I'll probably be skipping a lot of **** It's true what they say; Anything with Halo in the name, people will buy.
  
  The Xbox 360 Elite is coming out on April 26th! I'm still thinking about upgrading as I am finally getting a HDTV. I might just get the Hard Drive upgrade to have more space as I download like everything off the marketplace. Plus I think the Black 360 looks badass!

  Happy New Year!

  Well we finally made it to 2007. This year should be big for video games, as Halo fans will be able to finish the fight as the much talked about Halo 3 is going to be released, A whole new world is opened up later this month as World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade is released to gamers everywhere, Wii will explode with an array of games that will bring the system back into contendership, and PS3 will release a series of games where you attack a giant crab by attacking its weak spots for massive damage. Oh, and I turn 19 and can (legally) drink. So with that said, I wish everyone a Happy New Year and I hope all your resolutions become fulfilled.
  
  Oh and Congrats to me for getting to Lvl 18.
