Halo Reach Beta
Well I guess i've never really bothered doing a journal entry before but seeing as the Rooster Teeth guys are giving away family and friends beta codes it's as good a time as every to get started! A lil' you should know about me: I'm a 17 year old male from London, England. I am currently a student studying Software Development and Games design( yeah I know cool huh!). My hobbies mainly revolve around gaming and partying :D (would be cool if their was ever a mix of the both!). I have brown hair, brown eyes, brown eyebrows, pinky/peachy coloured skin, a blue t-shit and a scarf (even though it's not cold :S...crazy!) I like to play alot of games, I own every next gen platform... apart from the Wii coz everyone one know it's for little sissy girls who like flailing their arms all over the place hitting everything in sight with their 'nunchucks'. Don't call me fanboy but i'm gunna have to say I prefer the Xbox to the PS3, the majority of my friends have Xbox's and I like the games better on Xbox i.e Halo, Gears of War and Mass effect 2. Don't get me wrong the PS3 is great but when it comes to my opinion I find I put the most amount of game time on my Xbox 360. Plus for college we play around with the Xbox Community Dev tools when designing games so it's pretty cool to play around with. My favourite games are the Halo games, i'm just completely obsessed with the Halo universe, i've read all the books and am just really into all the cannon surrounding the franchise. Another favourite game of mine has been the Splinter Cell series, i've played the games for 8 years now and they've always managed to amaze me and keep their replay value (even with the new one despite being dumbed down for the casual audience). ANYWAY Enough about myself... So the Halo Reach Beta is drawing closer and closer, i'm super psyched for the beta and cannot wait. It's really cool aswell because when the beta is released here in the UK it's going to be a bank holiday so I won't have to go to college (not like I would have anyway because... well, IT'S FRIGGIN' HALO!).... AH GOSH DAN DARN IT!!!! Just after I wrote that last sentance my itunes made a funny beeping sound and I was like wtf another Drunk Tank podcast? I suddenly remembered that they were going to release a code for the beta in a special podcast! I then skipped the podcast to find the code and skipped first time to 6 minuites when I heard Gus reading out the code, quickly found the start and punched those numbers into the redeem code section of the Xbox... I thought I must be the fastest, but obviously not *sadface*. Oh well. So... anyway back to Halo Reach I love the way the game looks from looking at all the gameplay footage, i'm really excited for the return of the pistol similar to the one from Halo CE and the awesome looking DMR. It seems like a well balanced game even with all the armour abilities and extremely fun. Well that's all I really gotta say for the moment 12:45am currently here in England, if i'm unlucky and don't receive a beta key i'll be seeing all you guys online May 3rd. Peaaaceee |
