It's no doubt that yesterday's biggest story was all the Halo 3 beta news that flooded the intertubes. Not only was the press invited to get some hands on time with the beta, but the Friends and Family program kicked off with a fury. Heck, our very own Richard was lucky enough to get in on the beta fun early. And from all this came new screenshots and video. Bungie released an official video, Gamespot ran a streaming Halo 3 beta play session that is now downloadable, InsideGamer posted beta video, Xboxyde.com posted more beta video, and Joystiq took a few pictures from the San Francisco and New York press events. Not only that, but Xbox.com posted a few new screenshots including a nice writeup and Justin from justin.tv is doing a live play session as of this blog post. Indeed, it has been a Halo 3 beta media overload.
And if today is any inkling to what we are going to experience this Fall when the actual game releases, then man are we in for one hell-bent marketing blitz. Just know that we love you Halo 3 and that the rest of us will be playing you come Wednesday morning. We promise.
Oh we almost forgot. Be sure to watch Game Head's special Halo 3 beta episode airing this morning at 1:00AM eastern on Spike TV. Less than an hour away.
