Halo 3 Multiplayer Beta: Huge Mistake?

[ResiRiley]

I absolutley think that it was a mistake on Microsoft's part. It is kinda like if your parents let you take a peak at one of your Chrsitmas presents early. Sure it may be something that you have wanted forever and are finally getting, but the suprise and wonder that was surrounding that wrapped box under the CHristmas tree will be lost...... I have never played a Halo game, and don't plan on it anytime soon. I think NIntendo and Sony should use this negative (niche) criticism to their advantage and release one of their big AAA titles within days of Halo3. Nintendo and the Wii did a good launching right behind the PS3 even stealing a lot of its thunder. I think Nintendo, if they are really intent on releasing their big three before the end of the year, should launch Super Smash Bros. Brawl that same week, if not day......... The Wii userbase by that time will be almost equal to that of the 360 and there will be way less competition on the Wii for games as there is going to be on 360...... Just an idea
