Microsoft sent Halo: Reach beta codes to the last dozen still playing Halo 2 more than two weeks after multiplayer support was shut off for the original Xbox. Maybe itâs a hint to finally disconnect and play something else?

Technically, this isnât much of an award, as Reach beta keys were to be offered to loyal original Xbox gamers, along with some Microsoft points and a Gold membership extension. I donât know if that swag has hit for them yet, but at least the âNoble 12â can immediately get into Swordbase, Powerhouse and the like.

A small band of a committed few, engaged in a battle against insurmountable odds. Itâs not Noble team from Halo: Reach, itâs the final, passionate few who are still playing Halo 2. We wish them the best in their battle against time. Their tremendous exhibition of courage and commitment makes them ideal candidates for Noble team and therefore we are working to ensure they have everything necessary to participate in the Halo: Reach beta.
Reading between the lines, why do I sense theyâre also saying, âNow for the love of God, would you please get out of the game so we can finally shut things off?â
