The Seven7th Day is coming!
Post Date: Jul 6, 2008
Category: Specific Game
Halo 3 Hey everyone, I'm sure most of you know all of this already, but to those Halo players out there who don't know about Bungie Day, then please, read on!

Tomorrow, Monday the 7th of July, is Bungie Day, and to celebrate, Bungie is releasing their new map, Cold Storage (a remake of Halo: CE's map Chill Out) for FREE!! Thats right, Chill Out will be available on the Xbox Live Marketplace absolutely free of charge!

Now, if you are not able to log on tomorrow and download the map, then do not fret, because not only is Cold Storage free tomorrow, but every day after that! For the rest of eternity!*

Also starting tomorrow, the in-game text will change, indicating that the Legendary DLC map playlists now require "All DLC." If you already have the Heroic and Legendary map packs, then go ahead and download Cold Storage for free and keep playing!

In other related news, Microsoft will be lowering the price of the Halo 3 Legendary Map Pack from 800 points to 600 points, starting tomorrow.

Doesn't it feel like Your Nondenominational Holiday has come early this year?

*If it were up to me, this would be true. Unfortunately however, this is Bungie's call, so go talk to them.**

**Bungie, I apologize in advance for increasing your load of annoying questions. Know that I did it out of love.

      This has been on my calendar for a long time. You forgot to mention the special downloads they'll also have available, the exclusive one day only theme and gamerpics.

              I noticed your gamerpic is now the same as mine. I honestly liked my old one better (it was a halo UNSC thing, but I don't remember where I got it anymore) but I figure this one is more exclusive and supports Bungie more (which really is the only reason because I think my other one was more exclusive actually). But I love Cold Storage, I just wish I had a better connection to play on. I usually go through about 80% or more of a game with the black screen now :(

                  Lol ya I've actually noticed a lot of people with that gamerpic. I've been considering changing to a diferent (read: "slightly less awesome") one. And Cold Storage is sick, but The whole black screen thing sucks ... that just means you have to savor the %20 you do have! And forge the sh*t outta that thing. Fun stuff.

                      Yeah, I saw one of my friends with a different of the pics, and it actually looked a lot better than it did alone.

                      And Cold Storage is awesome. I love playing there, the whole bungie day playlist was awesome.

                      I would forge, but for me it's no fun without friends, and I don't even know what i would do. I do have a really cool idea for foundry, but no patience to implement it:(

                          Hahahaha I feel you, patience is key. It took me a million years to get it (really it was a million years) but once I did, its great. I've been forging a lot of Zombies maps for some reason ...

                              Well, if you ever feel like forging and I'm on send me an invite. Since you have more patience than me I might also send you my map design as well. It's a two story close quarters map on foundry.

                                  I'd love that! And I love it even more when people give me something to start with and elaborate on, because I just have such a time making stuff up on my own

                            Well aren't you lucky! The 7th will be forever remembered in my mind as both Bungie Day AND your birthday!

                            I'm sorry, but Bungie is important enough to enough people that you will have to share.

                            And its ok, I know the feeling. I have to share my birthday with Buddha. Seriously. He's a tough act to follow.
