Sometimes we're away from our Xbox 360s (scary thought, no?) and, as a result, we get a bad case of Halo 3 withdrawal. Seriously, you don't want to be in our company when we haven't been able to play Halo 3 for more than 48 hours. Violence and random obscenities is the end result. But the second best thing to actually playing the game is watching it online and, with the help of Justin.tv, that's exactly what we do curb our Halo 3 appetite.
Over at the Halo 3 Justin.tv page you can watch three college roommates take turns playing Halo 3 "12/7". Using the power of a webcam that's pointed directly at their rather large HD screen, you can waste seconds, minutes or hours of your life watching them spew ammo from their BR or drive a Warthog in circles. They are only online "12/7", so there is some downtime, but be rest assured that the three roommates will put in their 12 gaming hours a day for you in your time of need. That's what gaming is all about, sharing the experience.

...there's no spectator mode in halo 3, is there? why in the hell did bungie exclude that? i mean, damn, i'd much rather see people playing some incredible halo than people playing pdz. i guess file share makes up for it in a way, but you'd think the 360's flagship title would exhibit this relatively new relatively cool feature.

Are you serious? Too much Halo 3? There's nothing about Halo on the front page until this story(?)! Last time they posted anything about Halo was yesterday. Relax, all things get old after awhile. In this case, the game isn't even a month yet and it's the #1 played game on Xbox Live. In my mind that makes anything Halo 3 related still relevant.

too bad the players embedded, so they're not getting any hits from us. :-P
They're not too good either, i just watch them completely ignore a bunch of assault riffles to use their battle rifle on sandtrap, and then get bitch slapped. what a noob move.

Xeno I don't think Fontez was referring that X3F was posting too much Halo, but that some people are taking teh Hal0 madness too far.

I'm pretty sure Fontez wasn't complaining about too much Halo 3 news.
It is scary yet cool to see how hardcore the Halo fans are, makes me feel less like a nerd at least even though I love me some Halo.

Thanks for posting this up, I had a blast playing with them.
They're on a Taco Bell break right now though so I'm waiting for them to come back so we can get a lot of random people together again and play some Halo 3...w000000t! :D
