Special Bungie goodies on XBLM tomorrow

by Richard Mitchell { Jul 6th 2007 at 4:30PM }

Tomorrow, whether you know it or not, is Bungie day. Fans of Bungie will know that the number 7 has a special significance to the company and its games. As such, July 7 (7/7, get it?) has become known as Bungie day. Seeing that tomorrow is 7/707, this year marks a super special Bungie day (so special, in fact, that it won't happen again for one hundred years). To celebrate, some extra special Bungie goodies will be appearing on Xbox Live Marketplace tomorrow. What sort of goodies exactly? We don't know. All we do know is that it won't be related to Halo 3 and is "of a more decorative nature." Naturally, we're guessing themes and gamer pictures. You'd better act fast though, as these downloadable morsels will only be available tomorrow. At the stroke of midnight, they will vanish into the intertubes.

Cookies n' Cream

Mr Pimpbot @ Jul 6th 2007 4:47PM

I am going to guess it will be a "Pimps At Sea" theme

What does that mean for all the 360 users that are waiting for their consoles to return from Texas and patch-worked back together. I guess were just f'd in the A if its a one time download.

Toph @ Jul 6th 2007 4:50PM

I can't wait. Sounds fun. The end!

Yea I hope they up it at midnight eastern time, since I'm always online till like 2AM EST haha. But it doesn't say its not Halo 3 related, it says "don't get too excited its not Halo 3" so if it would be trying to say its not Halo 3 related it would say obviously "don't get too excited it doesn't have something to do with Halo 3"... but then again maybe I'm just reading into this too much haha

But yea it does definitely sound Theme or Gamer Picture related, and Mr Pimpbot, that'd be hillarious!

Since my 360 is broke (yes, 3 red lights, started the repair last night thanks to the new warranty), would attaching my hard drive to someone else's 360 and downloading the content work?

Novaboy117 @ Jul 6th 2007 5:00PM

Wow if this is really a one day thing. Like someone else said all of us that had our 360's sent for repair are screwed. Nice

Intentless @ Jul 6th 2007 5:11PM

If you dl your GT on someone elses box you can download it and put it on a memory card if it isn't too large of a file...

Swampfox23 @ Jul 6th 2007 5:16PM

Maybe it'll be Marathon. Heres to hoping!

h0mi @ Jul 6th 2007 5:21PM

Halo 3 RC1?

heh, I can dream can't I?

ccc @ Jul 6th 2007 5:26PM

Maybe that old FPS, (I 4get the name) will show up in the marketplace for the Arcade.
That would be kool and it's non-Halo related.

Aero @ Jul 6th 2007 5:34PM

Ooh. I guess they're free right? I love freebies.

blamecanada @ Jul 6th 2007 5:49PM

@13

Marathon

ccc @ Jul 6th 2007 6:12PM

@15

Yes Marathon! Thank U, wouldnt that be sweet if it showed up 2morrow for 800 points?

Swampfox23 @ Jul 6th 2007 6:24PM

@16
No, it would be cool if it showed up for free for that day only, and from then on was priced for 800 points.

Tony @ Jul 6th 2007 6:33PM

Well, if you guys think Marathon is some sort of decorative thing... lol

Swampfox23 @ Jul 6th 2007 8:07PM

It could be decorative with new and improved graphics.

Xanto @ Jul 6th 2007 11:14PM

Well too bad my 360 is in for repairs...

SonyPS3Sucks @ Jul 7th 2007 1:08AM

damn.. my xbox 360 is in for repairs..!!!! NOOOOOOo!!! I feel so alone. =(

Zheng @ Jul 7th 2007 3:32AM

I'm on Marketplace right now and don't see any themes or gamer pics from Bungie or Halo. Am I looking in the wrong place? Bungie.net also has confirmed they are putting new content on marketplace. Help!!!
