A Halo 3 St. Valentine's Day Massacre

Slim Down for Summer with That's Fit

A Halo 3 St. Valentine's Day Massacre

Not since last October's "Living Dead" event has team Bungie released a specially themed Halo 3 matchmaking hopper, but today is the day of love. So, with that in mind, Bungie knew they had an obligation to fulfill.

With the thick ~~stench~~ smell of love wafting through the air, team Bungie will be releasing a new Halo 3 "St. Valentine's Day Massacre" ranked matchmaking playlist. The new playlist is (fittingly) a team doubles slayer fest where players will have to "partner up" to dish out the Valentines pain. Even better is the fact that Bungie promises to hand out special prizes to those gamers who perform amazing feats and perform amazing acts. What the prizes will be and what must be done to earn them is unknown, but we're thinking Recon armor will be in the mix. Yeah, it's possible. But you'll never know what prizes can be won or what fun can be had unless you partner up and play the St. Valentines' Day Massacre playlist. But you'll have to get fragging soon. The playlist love affair will only be available today starting at 1:00PM eastern through Monday, February 18th at 5:00AM eastern. And please, no teabagging.

I was on a few minutes ago, and Live seems boinked. I played 3 games, a Social Rumblepit, and Ranked Team Slayer, and Lone Wolves. All sufferred ridiculous lag, people not dying, and the melee was the worst I have ever seen it.

Something is up, and everyone was complaining about it.

This is my backup plan in case the TF2 DLC doesn't makes it for the XB360 today.

It should be a piece of cake to obtain the 2 per 1 achievement today.

Is a man not entitled to the Recon Armor?
'No!' says the man in Bunige, 'It belongs to the staff.' 'No!' says the 1337 guy, 'It belongs to the leet-people.' 'No!' says the man in Chicago, 'My fucking 360 has RROD-ed'

Free Recon to teh ppl!
