News Xbox 360 Everything Halo

Silver members distraught.

Microsoft has whispered that it will be rewarding Live Gold members with free Halo 3 goodies.

The promotion has already begun and lasts until Sunday. Available already are a Halo 3 theme and Gamerpic, which will be followed by two behind-the-scenes Bungie interviews on Thursday and Friday.

All you have to do to get your freebies is click on the "Unite to Fight" advert in the Dashboard area.

Halo 3 launches across Europe tomorrow, with lots of eager retailers opening at midnight tonight to flog copies of the game.

We've already given you our thoughts on the third game in the series, which amounted to top marks and the biggest recommendation we can offer. Pop over to our Halo 3 review to find out more.

All the time I am going to be thinking about how I cant wait to take Halo 3 out of its wrapper.

like it's some kind of capitalist shock that people who pay less aren't as valued as people who pay more?

Never,
in the field of human conflict,
has so much fuss
been made by so many
over so little.

This just in... Microsoft is a business who are trying to encourage you to take up Gold membership to gain customer loyalty and ultimatley make (more) money.

This is what is known as 'an incentive'.

Get over it.

It's on the US MP. Probably have to wait for release date in the EU, which is tomorrow. But still, IT'S NOT FREE!!

If you aren't loyal enough to buy another console for it, you probably don't deserve it?

I guess in theory all you have to do is create a new account on your 360. That way you'll get a free month of Gold and you can download it.

Jeez, some people are pathetic. Gold members pay more. Hello ?! You got silver membership ? Live with it or pay more. It's called a consumer society and if gaming is really your bag then you'd buy Xbox Live Gold. Grow up.

Equally, in the grand scheme of things, it's not like having access to life-saving drugs revoked because you live in a certain area.

EDIT: Comment not aimed at everyone, natch ! Just those who cannot think of anything better to do than complain. Just like me !
