Bored? Watch people play Halo 3 at Justin.tv

by Dustin Burg { Oct 17th 2007 at 4:30PM }

Sometimes we're away from our Xbox 360s (scary thought, no?) and, as a result, we get a bad case of Halo 3 withdrawal. Seriously, you don't want to be in our company when we haven't been able to play Halo 3 for more than 48 hours. Violence and random obscenities is the end result. But the second best thing to actually playing the game is watching it online and, with the help of Justin.tv, that's exactly what we do curb our Halo 3 appetite.

Over at the Halo 3 Justin.tv page you can watch three college roommates take turns playing Halo 3 "12/7". Using the power of a webcam that's pointed directly at their rather large HD screen, you can waste seconds, minutes or hours of your life watching them spew ammo from their BR or drive a Warthog in circles. They are only online "12/7", so there is some downtime, but be rest assured that the three roommates will put in their 12 gaming hours a day for you in your time of need. That's what gaming is all about, sharing the experience.

That's just retarted... I mean I love Halo 3 but... C'mon... Draw the line for god sakes...

I bet these guys call themselves business owners too lol... Man I hope they're not making money off of this...

What is the world coming to...

...there's no spectator mode in halo 3, is there? why in the hell did bungie exclude that? i mean, damn, i'd much rather see people playing some incredible halo than people playing pdz. i guess file share makes up for it in a way, but you'd think the 360's flagship title would exhibit this relatively new relatively cool feature.

Ah, the lovely Erica Campbell. What's your gamertag, girl? ;)

@Fontez

Finally a Halo-fanboy who agrees X3F is posting way too much H3 news.

Thank you.

Are you serious? Too much Halo 3? There's nothing about Halo on the front page until this story(?)! Last time they posted anything about Halo was yesterday. Relax, all things get old after awhile. In this case, the game isn't even a month yet and it's the #1 played game on Xbox Live. In my mind that makes anything Halo 3 related still relevant.

Hah, they just thanked X3F.

"Hey that's not a bad idea, get enough hits, whore out the advertising space and get paid to play!"

too bad the players embedded, so they're not getting any hits from us. :-P

They're not too good either, i just watch them completely ignore a bunch of assault riffles to use their battle rifle on sandtrap, and then get bitch slapped. what a noob move.
