Screen Play, a column in The Age (a Melbourne, Australia newspaper), has a post up today that suggests that the Halo 3 Beta had nothing whatsoever to do with beta testing, and everything to do with hype-building. (The main argument is that since you haven't been contacted by Bungie for feedback now that the beta is complete, they clearly didn't WANT your feedback... so how could this be a 'beta'?) It sort of ignores everything Bungie's ever said about the beta's purpose - that it was specifically set up to test their backend stuff, the stats reporting, the tools for measuring validity of spawn points, etc.) Everyone's entitled to their opinion, I suppose. Thanks, Brett Cunningham. (Louis Wu 15:14:34 UTC)
