- baldr, on 10/12/2007, -2/+19I just got an email saying I was chosen. All the email has is a cool halo 3 image and the message:
"Congratulations ****** ****** (my name), you have been chosen to participate in the Halo® 3 beta.
In order to participate, you must have access to:
-An Xbox 360TM Pro console or Xbox 360 Core console with hard drive
-A valid Xbox Live® Gold subscription
Keep an eye on your inbox, we will be sending more information about this opportunity soon.
*Limit one Halo 3 beta invite per person/Xbox Live gamertag. Your invitation is non-transferable and cannot be redeemed for cash. The beta is available in English only." - doodirock2, on 10/12/2007, -3/+16I have checked my email about 500 times to day. Yes, Im that pathetic.
- khag7, on 10/12/2007, -2/+12I didn't get one. I just got an email saying "they'll be going out in the next 2 days"
- DEEP_NNN, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8You are not alone in your pathetisism, although as per usual, your numbers are ahead of mine. :)
- Nobi-Wan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I still play Halo a lot, just not online anymore. I got tired of all the 12 year old Elmos and Timmys, cheaters, and griefers in the game. I find I have more fun when a bunch of my friends come over and play or we just play private games.
- DEEP_NNN, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6This is a momentous event for members of the Halo Nation. I am an avid Halo 2 player and I would appreciate being part of the Beta testing for XBL multi-player. I hope weight is given to consistent XBL Halo 2 players. The upcoming MS Law of Three event is another crack at the Beta but any would-be-gamer with XBL and a Halo 2 disk can qualify for that draw too. Then there is the last draw for those who can buy their way into anything. This latter method irks me a bit. If I don't make it into the Beta via the first two methods then there is still the Crackdown acquisition. I'll probably buy it if I have to, but believe me, it'll be months, if ever before I play that game. I really dislike being coerced into buying something I don't want.
- Nobi-Wan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Why did you sign up then? Someone would have appreciated the invite MUCH more than you would, apparently.
- minideezel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5I got that email a half hour before they sent me my confirmation email.
- infimprob, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Halo 3=LAN
- DEEP_NNN, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3You lucky son of a %^&$^.
Please! Me too! - icedevil6, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Ditto.
- rowlodge, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4same here...
- Nobi-Wan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Yeah I got that one too.
- doodirock2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Im in too!!!!! I love you Bungie!
- minideezel, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Hurray i got in too!!!!!
http://bp3.blogger.com/_9owoNAh40K0/RbVYYwl5CyI/AAAAAAAAAAM/5XQspDs_t0E/s1600-h/Halo+3+Beta.jpg - djtodd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I am really happy for those of you that got yours. I have question: did you register with the Halo 3 site using a hotmail account or not? I didn't, but I wish I would have because perhaps they're preferring hotmail accounts being that it's Microsoft. I doubt it, but any little edge would be nice.
Second, I don't think it's going to be that exclusive. It's going to be a great marketing tool, and as the servers and network tech get up to speed, I think they'll allow more and more people to get on.
Hopefully we'll all be hearing "KILLTACULAR," but this time it'll be accompanied by HD graphics and new levels! - Ralphy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4GOT MY INVITE!!!
http://www.matteoganci.com/Hosted%20Files/Halo3.jpg - hiroyukibatosai, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I was wondering if the people that got the confirmation got that email before they got the confirmation.
- hiroyukibatosai, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1hey I got an email that says Phase one registration is now closed. If you have been selected to participate, you will receive an email notification within the next two days.
For those of you that didn't make it in - fret not as this phase one was just the first of three ways to secure entry into the Halo 3 multiplayer public beta. The next two paths of entry are:
Did you guys get that email before you got the confirmation? Thanks! - hrdcregmer808, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Yea I got the same one too with the subject line : Halo 3 Beta Announcement

(Mine of couse, see ya in game :D) - Nobi-Wan, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Congrats. Please give them some input to make the game more like Halo 1 than Halo 2. THANKS
- tdawg148, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1just received my invite, also
- CraigB12, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4If i don't get one, I will cry. They should give priority to people that play all the time because obviously we're the ones who know what to look for while testing. I'm actually playing Ivory Tower on xbox live while my roommate types the message.
- Hindu_Wardrobe, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Damn me and my *just* getting my 360.
- Nukem945, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Has Bungie stated a limit to the number of beta keys they are handling out?? How many boxes of Crackdown will have the beta?
- BadassCheese, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Woot for Bungie!
- TeKoverride, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I doubt it.... cause I registered with my .mac email account
- eliteeggnog, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Well, if you really feel the need to play the beta, make sure you secure yourself a copy of Crackdown with a beta key in it.
- sinembarg0, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Ever heard of gmail notifier? Google talk does it too. Just use that, and it will check every 5 minutes for you.
- PacoDG, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1People are getting them: http://www.digg.com/gaming_news/Check_your_Email_Halo_3_beta_invites_are_already_being_sent_Screenshots
- hiroyukibatosai, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1when you got the confirmation did you get the email that says Phase one registration is now closed. If you have been selected to participate, you will receive an email notification within the next two days.???
THANKS! - NeoCortex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1If the number of boxes with beta keys is really limited, that game will be selling like...Damn they picked the right name. People will be hunting for dealers on corners trying to pick up a dime bag and a beta key.
- LegendarySock, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I WANT ONE. Can they sell invites on Ebay? If so, I'm there.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2eeeww, myspacer. :P
- unloud, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Empty your spam box.
- icedevil6, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Thanks, I was wondering.
- joemc72, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Ditto. Well, one can only hope...
- Warptera, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1... I don't have one. I think I'll cry... I did get an e-mail notifying me that e-mailing was commencing, and that IF I was chosen, I would receive an e-mail within the next two days...
I really hope I get one within the next two days... :( - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Got my invite
- djtodd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That's good to know TeKoverride.
- oldtimegamer, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2I just got in!!!
- jjk5, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I'm already in the Shadowrun multiplayer beta, I wonder if this hurts or helps my chances? If you got in _and_ you're in the shadowrun beta can you post to let us know?
