Legendary Savings
Posted by urk at 12/1/2008 1:29 PM PST
Major Nelson pulled his wagon into town today offering a great remedy for those of us strapped for cash this Holiday Season.  Looks like our very own Halo 3 Legendary Map Pack is going on sale for seven days, starting tomorrow at 9am PST.
From the site:

On the heels of the highly successful Black Friday sale for US Members, I am happy to announce the Marketplace ‘Holiday Deal Of The Week’ which will run through December.

The program kicks off tomorrow with a deal on the Halo 3 Legendary Map Pack. Originally priced at 600 points, it will go on sale tomorrow for 400 points for Gold Members in ALL Xbox LIVE regions. That is a savings of 33% (200 points.)

The special pricing will be available after 0900 PT for one week.


Here are some details around the program:
The special deal pricing is available for Gold Members only
Deal of week is a program for all Xbox LIVE regions.


It won't cure all your ailments, but we can guarantee it will provide you with hours of electronic entertainment.  And of course, there are still achievements to be had tied directly to the Legendary Map Pack.  We're talking value, folks.

Still not convinced?  Scoop up the Legendary Map Pack and play in any hopper that requires the trio while the "Holiday Deal of the Week" is running and you'll earn yourself a chance at Recon armor.  If you already purchased the Legendary Maps, you only need to play in the associated hoppers to put your gamertag in the hat.

You don't have to play all of the maps in the Legendary Map Pack. Play in any of the following playlists and your name will be entered into the digital drawing:

DLC Big Team
DLC Free For All
Team Snipers
Team SWAT
Team Doubles

Out there, past them trees. You see it? I see you.

Hot on the heels of our Guardian Postmortem it's a good time to take a traipse through the wooded spaces that encompass Guardian's ancient platforms. This week's Tag and Release features a set of images that show off the surrounds. Hopefully, they also show off our community files collection.

If you don't like what you see, then you probably have terribly bad taste. Not a problem though, you can find tons of images in our community files collection. There's bound to be something you like tucked away in our forest of fan crafted content.

Firefight Friday: Lost Zoo 

Posted by urk at 2/5/2010 9:08 AM PST

Up for a challenge?

HBO's FyreWulff prepped a new menagerie designed to deal death to any ODST daring enough to drop into Lost Platoon. No matter what difficulty you play on, he's got an animal that'll keep you engaged.  Jump into the ring!

"First week after launch, a new challenge for all difficulties! Drop into Lost Platoon and battle it out on foot - no vehicles are allowed. And have fun with the Wraith - the Laser has been banned from use.

The site is still in beta at the moment, but it's got a spiffy layout now. Should be out of beta in not too long."
