This post is for the brain-dead and hermits among us.
Just in case you missed it, Halo 2 is coming out this week on Tuesday Noveber 9th. Thousands of stores are opening at midnight+1 to sell the game, so find the stores closest to you, choose one, and go get in line.
Meanwhile, here are a few new and nifty items to tide you over until Tuesday at 12:01 am:
Halo 2 skin for Windows Media Player
First cut from the Halo 2 soundtrack (“Blow me Away” by Breaking Benjamin)
The Xbox.com Halo 2 web site (lots of cool stuff)
- Xbox TV - trailers, interviews, other videos (very good documentary, too)
So - is anyone actually taking vacation from work to beat the game? Heh.
Here is what Microsoft says you'll need - go to the xbox.com readiness guide page for more details...
The Essentials
A copy of the most anticipated game of 2004: Halo® 2. (Obviously!)
An active subscription to Xbox Live™.
An Xbox®-compatible router.
A Friends List full of potential opponents and teammates.
A linked Gamertag.
A TV and sound system to take in the whole experience. (HDTV and Surround Sound optional, but recommended.)
At least one day completely set aside for nothin’ but gaming bliss.
- Supplies (food, refreshments, toilet paper, etc.).
Who's planning on getting in line and buying their copy at midnight? I'm game if someone else is going along, but I won't be skipping work, I'm not that hard-core, heh.
