now as many as you may know Halo 3 is set to release on September 25th, after the Multi player beta was finished bungie released the Epsilon beta which was completely closed off the outside world. that was until the dreaded "two controller glitch" where one infamous gamer got his ban. under the Alias of Scar the self described "Achievement Whore" got himself into this beta where he said he played in " the campaign and custom games all by himself" until the next day where he decided to play some XBL where he discovered he was banned until December 31st, 9999 thats right about 7991 years from now. i feel bad for this kid but hell he deserved it, maybe his great,great,great,great,great,great,great grand kids could play halo 3.

So if I understand right this kid digs playing games so much that he developed the skill of playing with two controlsrs in halo. For this he is now banned for life.
If I got it right then thats pretty unfair if you ask me. Who was he hurting? I can understand not letting him compete in tournies, but other then that who cares.

It's sounds pretty stupid actually. The kids was just playing the game. I wonder if it was just a mistake. Either that or I don't really understand what happened. Anythings possible.

Guy supposedly was seen playing Halo 3 on Live before the release date... however that works. Probably someone internal.

The problem is that he used a glitch to obtain the Halo 3 Epsilon beta, which is supposed to be internal only. So he got banned for playing a beta which he was not supposed to have, not because he was playing with two controllers.

Ok that story i have heard before.
So this isnt a story of a kid playing with 2 controllers, its the same guy that played a game not out yet on live and this is just the story he put out to make it look like he did nothing wrong.
If thats the case, then yea, bant. See ya next life.
