I'm an avid gamer. So of course I'm gonna get excited when I hear earlier in the year that they are going to be releasing a Halo 3 Multiplayer Beta to the public. They gave 3 ways to get access to the Beta...1) Win a contest and receive the invite 2)Play so many hours of Halo 2 on certain days and be entered to win an invite or 3) Purchase a copy of a videogame called "Crackdown". So I chose to do option #3. Crackdown was a great game, still is...Now about a month ago they tell us that the Beta will go public on May 16th (which is in 2 days)...they also say that about 4 days prior to that (May 11th) they will be releasing a "Friends and Family" beta invite. And how this worked was they chose 40,000 people from the Bungie.net website (chosen by some unknown criteria) and then on May 11th they were going to randomly send codes to gain access to the Beta EARLY to 10,000 of those people. Imagine my shock and astonishment when I, that's right "I", checked my messages yesterday on the bungie website and had the invite.
I didn't even think to actually check on May 11th for the code because I didn't think I had a chance, so I was excited yesterday when I saw the code and started downloading the Beta. So I played a few games yesterday and LOVED it. I can't wait until Wed. when there are more people on there playing AND my friend, Geoff, will be back in town today for the summer so he and I are going to have a blast playing the Beta.
Okay I've rambled enough now. Time to play with my Bella. :)
