Xbox and the Army - and you (a clarification)
Okay, so a few days ago, we mentioned a new contest at Xbox.com, sponsored by the Army - play Halo 3, register for the sweepstakes, maybe win some stuff. At about the same time, a bunch of big gaming sites posted news of a Halo 3 tournament sponsored by the Army - and pointed to the same page on Xbox.com. Prizes weren't listed, but it sounded like a pretty big deal; a three-part qualifier, finals, a "branded destination experience" site on Xbox LIVE complete with downloadable videos... After a bunch of checking, we're sorry to tell you that these guys (TeamXbox, Xbox360Fanboy, Joystiq, and dozens of others) have made a mistake; the tournament was, indeed, originally planned - but it was cancelled. What's left is the Play & Win contest we mentioned on Tuesday. We'd love to see the tourney (and feature-rich LIVE site)... but it ain't gonna happen. (Louis Wu 16:57:46 UTC)
