All you doubtful people...HALO IS GOLD!!!

"We passed certification yesterday. Halo is done. The manufacturing plant got the GM today and is pressing up a zillion Halo discs as I type this. All of us worked very hard to get to this point and we are collectively very proud of what we have done. " -- Matt from Bungie.

yup, saw this earlier, im really suprised. didnt think it would make it so soon. they'll have plenty of time to get them in stores. looks like the xbox may actually launch on the 15th

 

[UberNeuman]

Wow... Another game I have no plans to buy - give me Civ3 instead!

Too bad the Xbox version is going to pale in comparison to the PC iteration.

Or did they nerf both versions?

Yup. Right at E3 when they announced (I think it was E3) that they were taking all multiplayer out of it and were focusing on the Xbox version first I knew the game was going to be trash. Not simply because of the switch in game focus, but because it happened like a half a year before the game was set to ship. I'm sorry, but a complete design shift a half year before ship time is never a good thing.

UberNeuman: w00t! civ3!!!

 

[LAUST]

Multiplayer removed?? WTF...... really?

 

[LordMaul]

<< Multiplayer removed?? WTF...... really? >>

 

[piku]

Well its multiplayer, but only with like 4 people on one Xbox. The internet play was removed.

 

[Deeko]

Wow.....they have a game done...will they have consoles that work correctly by then? Unlike the ones at store kiosks.

 

[UberNeuman]

My local Babbage's unit hasn't been working for a few days, and we've all heard of the troubles with X-box units - are the same things happening with CC's?

*edit- I mean you guys have the demo units

 

[KBrinks]

who cares about consoles.. when does it come out for PC? oh wait who cares about that... you'll need a geforce 100000000000000 to run it

 

[Deeko]

We actually haven't even gotten ours in yet....but they cleared space for it so it should be there soon. But my local EB's isn't working.
