Well, while many of our friends and the foolish among us are doubtlessly lining up outside of Gamestop while I speak, the rest of us can patiently run our slimy hands over theexclusive free contentthat Microsoft is giving its customers to celebrate the launch. Starting from midnight tonight, a limited-time only theme and gamerpic can be downloaded to all Xbox Live Gold accounts. You read that right — Microsoft is actually going to give stuff away.
Furthermore, this Thursday will see the release ofInside Bungie: Halo 3 — The Story, a behind-the-scenes look at this year’s biggest game release with staff interviews that will be available via the Marketplace. On Friday you’ll be able to getInside Bungie: Halo 3 — New Featureswhich looks at all the, well, new features inHalo 3.

You’ll be able to nab this free stuff until September 30th, soHaloobsessives shouldn’t delay. If you have a Gold Account, revel in the idea that The ‘Soft is actually giving something out for free, and realise that the release ofHalo 3is truly an event, whether you love the game or hate it.
