Free Halo 3 Downloadable Content

Do you want to give your Xbox 360 dashboard or gamer picture a spring makeover but don’t feel like spending the money? Save your Microsoft Points for the Legendary Map Pack because McFarlane Toys has got you covered. Starting this Monday (April 14th), there will be a Halo 3/McFarlane Toys free gamer picture pack and also a Halo 3/McFarlane Toys free dashboard theme available on the Xbox Live Marketplace. I’m pretty sure I can see Cortana’s ass in the last blade. I guess I’ll find out for sure on Monday.

  2. Freebies, you say? Most excellent. :D

    That’s actually a pretty nice theme, if you ask me.

  3. What were they thinking? It’s obvious that contents of the system blade need to be at the xbox live blade.

    Duh!

  5. That is DEFINITELY Cortana’s ass, which is weird, as I suppose it’s an ass entirely comprised of code. Jokes easily spawned off of having an ass made of code:

    1 – I would loooove to debug me some of that, if you know what I’m sayin’!

    2 – It appears as though there’s a syntax error on your backside that I’d love to get my hands on.

    3 – I’ll be the binary for that is 1010101010101010! Oh snap!

    Alright, that’s enough.

    That’s awesome, I’m definitely getting it. It’s also cool that it’s free, plus my theme sux right now. I can’t afford anything anyway :(

    I have the white Spartan. Looking at that makes me sad because my Spartan’s yellow detail is faded, very very light and almost hard to see.

    There wasn’t an update on their site about a delay or anything, hopefully it will be up soon.

    I know, I’ve been checking for it on a daily basis as well. They updated their news article today with this :

    Coming soon, you will be able to download a free dashboard theme and gamer picture pack featuring your two favorite things: McFarlane and Halo.

    The actual date of last Monday was replaced with “Coming soon”. Looks like there was a delay for some reason. ARGH.

    I checked again yesterday and still didn’t see it. There aren’t any updates on their website that I can find so I sent them an email inquiring about it. I have no idea if I will hear back from them or not but if I do, I will let you know.

    I’m assuming they’re still not available? Why does Microsoft torment me so?
