    Halo Fest 2010

    Gamestop Is giving away a live size spartan. I think it's really cool, but where can you keep a spartan. Who actually wants this and has a place to put it?

    I can honestly say I want one. My gamestop preorder slip doesn't have the unique code though...?

    It comes on the receipt. I don't think you can enter until the game releases.

    EB games and gamestop are owned by the same company (i'm 95% sure anyway)

    As you may have gathered from my handle, I'm working for GameStop on Halo Fest, so I wanted to pop in here and see if you guys had any questions I can answer.

    As far as the life-size statue goes, we're actually giving away 18 of them! Be sure to also check out the Halo Fest film fest, which features a new 3 part Red vs. Blue miniseries. Here's part one:

    Where do you find that code to enter in the contest?

    should be on your pre-order receipt. If not, go back to the gamestop you pre-ordered it from and ask for a new receipt with the code on it.

    The code can be found on your receipt, like this:

    If you've lost your code, you can email HaloCode@gamestop.com with the subject line "Lost Halofest Pre-Order Code" and we'll help you out.

    And just to whet your appetite -- how bad @$$ do these statues look?!

    Do we choose what statue we get provided we win, or is it just a random one? I'm guessing random, that way you guys would only have to make 3 of each character or so.

Ahh well guess im going back to gamestop, i really need to check my email more i missed the midnight thing too, i don't really care for having an MLG consultant tell me how to play but dam it'd been nice to win a legendary edition of the game free.

    The winning statues are randomly assigned.

    You guys might get a kick out of a newly-unlocked Halo Fest feature, Speak Up and Command Attention. It's a way for you to share Halo war stories with your fellow Spartans and vote on your favorites.

    Here's my fav:

    The British are Coming!
    Posted on:
    8/13/10

    It was BTB Blood Gulch CTF against a whole bunch of British kids. And I’m as American as you can get – couldn’t stand those Brits with their horrible lag and their hoity-toity game play. Really just fueled the rage of nearly losing to these guys.
    So it was coming down to the wire and we were tied at 2-2 with a few minutes left. They managed to rush our base and take the flag. Our team couldn’t stop them while they were running our flag back to their base. I managed to climb to the top of our base with the sniper rifle just as they made it to the halfway point. I took aim – 4 shots, 4 kills. Stopped the flag dead in its tracks as Team America managed to return it, grab their flag, and bring it home in the Warthog of Victory. It truly came down to the wire and those 4 shots definitely saved the game. The victory was great… made just a little sweeter by nuking those 4 British kids in succession. Go America.​
