This Is Not A Game, It's Speculation.

Because eating time comes before sleeping time...or is it after? I can never remember...

So the Halo Reach BETA ended today. I wish I could be talking about how awesome it was, but since I didn't actually have an xbox at the time when ODST came out I didn't buy it...ergo did not play the beta ergo blah blah blah. But I've seen the cool screenshots and gameplay videos, many of them on bungie's site.

Lots of them. In fact, there are probably more screenshots on there than paparazzi vomit in the checkout line. People magazine, take note. You've been pwned like a nub, and need to increase your output.

Which leads to another philosophical question: the...(I must not speak it's name, but I will)... <arg>. Since the beta is over,and the game's slated for release in the fall...where is the trailhead for this game's maniacal little follow-the-leader?
I'm an arg noob. Which hopefully doesn't translate to "Beam sword! Beam sword! I gotthebeamsword!"

But I did start to wonder why there was a huge sponsored contest for the uberest screenshots and video. Whatever their motive, Bungie wants us to spend lots and lots of time looking at their darn game. So I'm thinking if there is a clue in the beta, it's IN the beta. They want us to have lots of videos and piccies saved...so if this isn't just like a little "extra cutscene gives you an area code in Switzerland" sort of thing, I'm hoping those of us who didn't beta aren't excluded entirely.

Seems pretty dark out n the black there lately. Anybody live?
