Sweet Jebus, it's a fine time to be a geek

I've been playing quite a bit of the Halo 3 Beta; not constantly, but enough. Mostly Team Skirmish and Big Team Battle modes - I don't have to be a hero, I just like having players on the map who aren't shooting at me! (Mostly)

I even found playing split-screen with a mate quite good. Going to be sad when Bungie hits the "off" button and nukes the Beta on my console, including all my Saved Films... ah well, I didn't really want to see how crap I was in that first ever game I played...

The full version will be all kinds of awesome, I'm sure. Just need to recruit more of my friends into the Xbox 360 fanboys club so I have more people on my friends list! Maybe I'll be too busy finishing the campaign for the nth time?

Transformers.

My god; the new footage out there is really building up. Lots of new stuff from the MTV Movie Awards... and I have to say I've had enough at this point. My excitement's already at 99% capacity, so anything else to get me going is probably wasted. So I'm locking myself down, not viewing any more online forums, no more YouTube; and I'll just have to close my eyes if an ad comes on TV ;)

Check these out...
Prime vs Bonecrusher
Prime Transforms and does some comedy with Sarah Silverman :)
Edit - Okay so those videos got nuked :(

There's also a hell of a lot of good stuff at www.autobotsrollout.com but I can't bring myself to watch any of it... If the bots don't end up getting much screen time, I wanna wait to be blown away in Gold Class!

All in all, I'm over-geeked. Halo, Transformers and... The War of the Worlds even! So many childhood and recent obsessions getting releases. If the Halo Movie hadn't derailed and was on track to come out this year, I think my head would just asplode.
