Bungie unleashes Halo 3 Beta photo

Look I drink...

and, who cares because Halo 3 Beta has officially begun to hit the interwebs. Before you get super excited and rush to check to see if its available in the Crackdown downloads section, slow your roll.

It is only up for grabs for those people that got a direct invite from good ol' Bungie itself. It will be available May 16th for everyone using a Crackdown invite. One thing you can do if you didn't get that early invite, is to download the new Crackdown content which is also up for grabs.

[Thanks Jesus]

Toneman: wait a minute how did you managed to use your OWN picture in your gamertag in xbox live, instead of the crappy ones we get for free or even buy?

If its an stupid question, I am in fact stupid so that is to be expected.
