Halo 3 Viral Marketing Campaign

Really good way of building up even more hype and anticipation for the game without them just spamming ads everywhere and actually making it interesting.

Re: Halo 3 Viral Marketing Campaign

I wish I was more interested in Halo 3. Well, I am, as far as the plot goes anyway, although I keep getting the odd feeling that Marathon's was more interesting. THat's probably mostly because no AI can top Durandal I love that guy.

Although half the time I get the feeling that, as a big fan of both Microsoft AND Nintendo (Gee, thanks Tex ;-))for different reasons, I'm tired of the Console War fanboy schtick, and Halo tends to be a big part of it I'll play it, I'll love it, but I'll probably spend most of the time talking about it ticked off at other people who brag about it.

Halo 3 will be incorporating some things that will remind you of Marathon and there are plenty of hidden things in Halo that refer to it :ninja:

Re: Halo 3 Viral Marketing Campaign

Oh, I know. Heck I know. I just momentarily forgot.

In fact, here's the list of things I actually am excited about in Halo 3:


1. Marathon references up the wadoodleyhoobee.

2. Co-op improvements (only way I could get people to play the single player story anyway )

3. "Armor Permutations" (i.e. the different helmets etc.)

4. Gravemind
