To those who have never been swept up in this kind of pre-exposition madness before.

I remember loving Halo before I knew about Bungie, and I remember not having an Xbox. Having to wait, sometimes years after their release, for the chance to actually beat every level of the newest Halo game over at friends houses via co-op on [i]their[/i] Xboxes. By the time I got a reliable internet connection and had heard about the forum, and the rest of the community, the days of I Love Bees and Halo 3's "Iris" had become ancient history, and I would scroll through the defunct remnants of the associated domain names, trying to get a feel for what it must have been like to be a part of, but only received the pang of regret one experiences after seeing their bus drive past them a block from the stop. Too late. By the time I had joined the forum, Reach was already half-way through its own marketing campaign, which was brilliant. Now we get to be a part of something! See it unfold with our own eyes! Many of you here are likely younger than I, having just begun my third decade of consciousness, but welcome to everyone. Bungie sure knows how to make a gamer feel all warm and fuzzy inside. No other game publishers do this. Not even Valve. BUNGiE4LYF.

  • I remember reading about ilovebees when I first joined. I was super pumped when the Iris ARG came out. Even though I wasn't a big part of solving much, it was still really fun. The discussions we had were really good. And because of the massive hype surrounding Halo 3 at that time, the amount of people working together to solve Bungie's puzzles and stuff was amazing. There was also a smaller ARG that Halo ODST had, and that was good fun as well. It was great because they actually had an "AI" post and we got really excited. I can't wait. This is going to be awesome.
