The Final Countdown
[youtube]tt_ro2aerQg[/youtube]
that's right, to both haters and fanboys, Reach is one week away.
and both Bungie and Microsoft are doing everything they can to add suspense.
starting with enabling the use of nameplates.
you can choose your Halo: Reach nameplate by going to http://www.bungie.net/
then after logging in with a windows live ID (the one linked to your gamertag). after that scroll over to the "Profile" tab and select "Halo Game Settings"
from here you can select which nameplate you want to play with out of all those you have unlocked so far.
click the spoiler for a list of all possible name plates and what they all look like.
furthermore, microsoft is promoting the upcoming title with a "countdown" on the xbox 360 dashboard. starting tuesday, the 7th. every day something new that is reach related, be it footage or something in the marketplace, will be unveiled.
fortunately, bungie has put out the entire list so you know what's available to you each day. here's the list.
7 September - Day 7: "Halo: Reach Premium Theme"
8 September - Day 6: "Campaign Preview"
9 September - Day 5: "50% off Avatar Warthog Prop Offer"
10 September - Day 4: "Firefight Preview"
11 September - Day 3: "Deliver Hope - Director's Cut"
12 September - Day 2: "Multiplayer Preview"
13 September - Day 1: "Halo: Reach Collection Update (Avatar)"
to those who care about all this, enjoy.

You're either in a default state of mind or you have no idea this page exists. If you want to switch it up, steer your eyes due south for all sorts of additional options. If you don't see any addition options, that's because you haven't played

Gotta support the team. The Septagon symbolizes all that is right in the multiplayer world. A few million men and women, bound by honor, Bungie, and celebratory crouching.

Spray it, don't say it. You don't need words to express your love for the Halo: Reach Assault Rifle. All you had to do was play the Halo: Reach Beta in May of 2010. Didn't squeeze off a few rounds in our online test bed? Sorry, this nameplate is not for you.

A professional weapon for a pro player. Active Bungie Pro to boost your File Share capacity and enable Bungie Pro Video rendering and we'll throw in this nameplate at no extra charge. If you already have an active subscription from Halo 3 or Halo 3: ODST, you're already good to go.

If you played Halo 2 over Xbox Live before the Hushed Casket closed, we're giving you access to the Halo 2 nameplate. If you didn't, we won't.
Since we don't have access to Xbox Live account history, we aren't able to verify whether or not you played Halo 2 on a seperate account.

If you Finish the Fight (or even start one in Halo 3 over Xbox Live), we'll enable this nameplate for your efforts.
If you haven't yet played any Halo 3, don't worry, you still have time to get some games in.

Desperate times call for awesome nameplates. If you played Halo 3: ODST while connected to Xbox Live, we're prepared to drop this sweet nameplate feet first into your Halo: Reach lobby.

Like Blamite from a Needler, these nameplate options supercombine. Unlock the emblems for Halo 1, Halo 2, *and* Halo 3 to get this special emblem reserved only for loyal Halo Trilogy fans.

Reserved for our most steadfast fans. Unlock the Halo 1, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, and the Halo: Reach emblems to earn the Master Chief's MJOLNIR Mk VI helmet nameplate.
NOTE: It should be mentioned that this one has been updated. Now only 4/5 of the above requirements must be met for the Mjolnir Mark VI nameplate to be yours.

This one has not been announced yet. it is viewable at the bottom of this picture. due to it's similarity to a matchmaking symbol in previous halo games, it is speculated to be online multiplayer related.
furthermore, microsoft is promoting the upcoming title with a "countdown" on the xbox 360 dashboard. starting tuesday, the 7th. every day something new that is reach related, be it footage or something in the marketplace, will be unveiled.
