So the Halo 3 Launch Event at Suntec today was a BLAST. Although I still went ALONE (What can I say...), the fun was there nonetheless.
I arrived just in time to catch the lucky draw for the Legendary Edition of the game. Those lucky bastards. And I say that in THE most endearing manner possible. It consisted of the Halo 3 game, some extras, and the creme' de resistance':
The atmosphere was obviously thick with geeky fanboy sweat. DIS-gusting. They came in droves straight out of school, looking eager as if they WERE true fanboys. Do I hear 'kiasu' and 'freebies'?
I admit, I TOO was there in hopes of a few free treats.
The game was REVAMPED from what I saw last (in Halo 2). Apparently the game starts where the Halo:Uprising comic mini-series left off (Yes, I bluddy hell ripped it off Wikipedia!). Brutes are smarter but MUCH easier to kill now. Guess intelligence kills endurance huh? That explains why most geeks ain't got much to say about their bods. (That includes me though. XD)
From here on out, I shall leave you with a few vids I took at the event.
The sights and sounds on Suntec, filled with the squeals of geekdom.
Here they demo-ed 'Forge', an new introduction to Halo's multi-player line-up. It looks promising enough to generate enough revenue for Youtube for the next 2 years or so! HAHA.
Enjoy.
