I' ve got Crackdown, so I' m in. But to be honest I' m more interested in the single player side then the multiplayer, hope there' s a demo on the marketplace soon.

I got it


" There will also be new guns, vehicles and gameplay features to try – including the mysterious “X-Button” functionality. But you don’t have to wait to find out what that is, since you can now view part of its functionality in our latest Vidoc, “Is Quisnam Protero Damno!” a long look at the making of Halo 3’s Multiplayer game."

Has anyone downloaded this yet? If so whats the x button do?

Whoa... the timing couldn' t be much worse for me. Those are the last three weeks in a project I' m working on. Still, all work and no play... right?!

Well, they never specifically said, but they did show the bubble shield and a trip mine, so i think thats what it is. But as far as recording stuff, im not sure, but id say its probably under the start menu. I just cant see bungie making the " special" x button letting you record gameplay

I' m in...

I think the " x" button will be soe awesome badass ability to do combos.

That or the video recorder

That or self destruct button...

or it will activate the chain saw that was installed into Master Cheifs armor since Halo 2

Im in via Crackdown. If parties are in the Beta we should all get together and apply the Kikizo beatdown to everyone else.
I dont want to celebrate, I want to sell you hate.

I agree. It' d give me an excuse to get my act together in Halo 2. I' m pretty sure I' m a level 3.

If I wanted to record video, I' d spend the money on a decent capture card.

exactly, i think the whole idea is a good idea, but it will screw with multiplayer. I dont see how watching yourself get sniped in the face is going to make you play better
