They are giving away codes.

One guy in twitter is going to give some codes, he got 800 new followers in half an hour. Yeah.

It's not a leak. Giant Bomb gave out codes too, valid starting today (if not sooner, they just gave them out this week).

I'm just glad I hung onto my ODST disc. I'll give this a try next week for sure.

Pinata's wasn't a leak or giveaway. He's doing me a solid and getting some play time in for a hands on preview for me.

I've entered a ton of drawings on Twitter and still haven't won anything.

I'm keeping hope alive though.

Same here.

But I think I'll stop trying and just enjoy my weekend.

But if you have a code to share just send me a PM.

Re: Halo: Reach - Fall 2010

I hope they make dramatic improvements from the beta because in my opnion this feels like like a third rate game. Its almost like the game mechanics just dont work, it was very rigid and was like playing a ps2 or xbox multiplayer game. Was really hyped about all the new implimatations, but none of them seem to go anywhere.

Re: Halo: Reach - Fall 2010

My impressions are up over at http://www.jefftalksgames.blogspot.com/ if anyone cares to read them.

beavis, IMHO (and I'm not a HUGE Halo fan anyway), there's not a lot of new here to bring someone like me in. I'm sure the faithful will enjoy the new life, for what it's worth, that's been injected to the online game, but I daresay this won't be enough to pull people away from MW2, BF:BC2, or RDR (if that turns out to be as awesome as it looks).

why is every comment towards me a sarcastic quip that you sometimes go out of your way to make? regardless if your a mod or not, shouldn't you just help instead of squander?

if it is a code to play the game, i thought that you jsut pop the ODST game in and the option is now highlighted to play Beta. if the code is to play the Beta then i didn't know that, nor do i know where to get a code for it.

i don't go out of my way t make them, they come easily.

There are more sites than this on the net, most of which are discussing the beta as well. Doing some looking should tell you there is an early beta going on now for journalists, friends, family and contest winners that doesn't require ODST.

Researching things does wonders.

you very much go out of your way. that is why you were in the Halo thread when i believe you said you never even cared or played the games, but said you were a "moderator" and had every right to moderate the thread, which in your definition is posting sarcastic retorts.

it takes one post to answer a simple question. shouldn't you as a mod have more restraint in these things then other forum members who might act like an ____?

and what is the BFD? this is my one stop shop for all things i enjoy so i post here, in the respected thread. give it a break already.

Good read pinata. Nice work. BTW, doing those meta achievements has me itching for more. Want to give 1-2 more a run tonight?

I don't think it is a BFD.... however, you need to realize that most people don't get every single piece of information from one website. Most people don't use one forum as their one stop shop. You are welcome to do so - but realize you are going to get some shit.

Nope, I don't. Correction on your mention about the Halo thread. I am a moderator so i HAVE to read the threads - not that i have the right to. Big difference.

And yes, it takes one post to answer a question, but it takes one word to make google your bitch and retrieve any possible piece of information you could possibly want. Want to know the mating dance of a western grebe? What about the price of rice in china? It's all there. All I ask is that instead of making this forum your own personal Yahoo Answers page that you actually type your question into google first - if then you get no answer that works ask it here. And if you would, provide proof of your search so we can better help you hone the skills of self service.

I think we all knew this confrontation was going to happen once you started posted in Video Games.
