See, at this point I'm like "Screw you guys, you waited too freaking long and there are better games out there"[/QUOTE]
why do you care if people cares about this? go play the games you like and let other people to wait for the games they like

What bothers you so much about this thread being alive?
[QUOTE=343N;41901371]What bothers you so much about this thread being alive?[/QUOTE]
Probably because it gets bumped any time anybody vaguely affiliated with Halo(past or present) says anything that sounds vaguely like "Halo". It isn't a thread about news, it's a thread about what should be in the Halo megathread, at least until there is actual news on the topic.

How do you know what the app ID for Halo 3 is?

You can just look at the app's history.
>7 months ago Removed store name – Halo 3

4 Months of silence from the App itself, And I'm guessing the Sub is what contains all the billing info, Licences and various info.
Could this mean they're getting ready to launch to store?
Oh gosh, a sub for [URL="http://steamdb.info/sub/15737/"]Halo 2[/URL] and [URL="http://steamdb.info/sub/15736/"]Halo[/URL] was updated too. What could it mean?

I think we're getting close... September could be the month we have been waiting for
oh my
oh fucking
my
this is GOOD news
How many times had it been HAPPENING so far
Well this is the best news we've had in a while that's credible.
I remember back when I used to propagate rumors about Halo 3 coming to the PC just to see if my friends would believe me. It thrills me so much that there's a possibility it could actually happen. I loved Halo 3, but the Xbox community made me hate playing it.
Seriously though, if GFWL goes down, good fucking riddance. It was the most awful platform service I'd ever seen in my life, even more so than On-Live, which was pretty fucking terrible to say the least.
I don't think that Microsoft realizes that I will save up for Halo 1-3 with Steamworks support.
Guys I hate to burst your bubble, but if you check there was 100s of steam packages updated along with the Halo ones at the same exact time. Meaning it has nothing to do with Halo or Microsoft.

God damnit
[QUOTE=xPaw;78348301]I'm going to answer the Halo related package updates. We ran a full update yesterday, and this caused many packages to update at same time, because Valve marked them as developer packages (DevComp), so it hides real package name and they appear as "Steam Sub %%%%". Some changes can be seen on the [url=http://steamdb.info/history/subs/]history page[/url].
TL;DR: Valve's responsible for updating these packages, not developers. Halo was dead, still is.[/QUOTE]

We ran a full import yesterday to process updates Valve applied. This updated a whole ton of packages.
The Halo packages are still as dead as they were last week.
Sorry!
how long has this rollercoaster of expectations been going

One can dream I guess, its not important news, or news at all for that matter, but would be amazing if 343i/Valve worked on some promos for TF alongside the trilogy release, I finished making this, would be funny if it became outdated due to official promos [video=youtube;-byU89iJLNQ]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-byU89iJLNQ[/video]
i mean its gotta be sometime between now and saturday right?
[QUOTE=Sableye;41980056]i mean its gotta be sometime between now and saturday right?[/QUOTE]
Why?, People have already predicted dates to no avail
What makes Saturday any different?
Apparently Saturday is the last day of Halo fest, whatever that is. I wouldn't get my hopes up.
I'm not getting my hopes up for anything right now, but if I was I'd pin my hopes on an event a little more significant. The 6th anniversary of Halo 3's release is September 25th, maybe we can all get hyped up and disappointed then.
Maybe there might be something at PAX Prime? Bungie usually had stuff at each PAX, and 343 might have to show something (but it can't be Halo 5 since that was announced recently)
And also, this would be the type of cool shit we'd see if Halo 3 Custom Edition was a thing

Halo 5 was not annouced, they only showed off the Next gen Halo engine, the next Halo may not even be Halo 5 as 343 recently stated that the Reclaimer Trilogy is now the Recalimer Saga.
Every time Certain affinity gets questioned they don't give a definitive answer. Which arouses suspicion in my mind
Also anyone possibly reckon if all this is true we may get something this month being 6 years since H3's release. i know its a long shot but we all know how these devs like to do things.
It's a possibility.
