Okay, look. Halo 3 is out now. Millions of people are playing it. Can we please stop the publicity stunts? Please?

Anyway, yesterday Shane Kim from Microsoft, a few guys from Bungie, and a guy dressed as Master Chief rang the closing bell at NASDAQ. They then wandered into Times Square for a few photos with the NASDAQ sign. My guess would be this was a way of commemorating how Halo 3 raised Microsoft’s stock considerably once it went on sale. You can check out more photos of the event at Major Nelson’s Flickr album.

    Yup, leave it to wecklock to leave such a positive comment whenever there’s a Halo article written. Seriously dude, if you don’t like the story, then move on to another article.

    We get it, you don’t like Halo, your a hardcore PC FPS gamer, move on already!
