    That's really cool! I didn't get in on the beta because I didn't really care about the Facebook or Twitter- but that waypoint is very cool. I like the Awards FINALLY- and I really like the Halo Hub. I wonder what level I'll come in at- I seem to have a lot more than Steve, mostly because of my Halo 3 stuff. Anyway- very interesting idea- I like where it's heading a lot! #halowaypoint

    @henhowc: "Awards" are always free when you accomplish certain tasks in-game.

    It's kinda weird though that Waypoint's awards are based on Halo game achievements.

    It's like Awards for Merits that you get for Achievements.

    Y'know, it's funny...beating Arcade Mode in Tekken 6 (which was no easy task because someone bumped the difficulty up to Ultra Hard without my knowledge) unlocked me a bunch of Home Rewards. I don't use Home so I don't know what they are, but it's nice to see both consoles spreading their wings when it comes to metagame unlockables. I don't think they should replace NORMAL ones, but it's nice to see. #halowaypoint

    @Archaotic: Most of the unlockables in Home are usually statues or costumes. I think RE5 only unlocked statues if I'm not mistaken. #halowaypoint

    @Archaotic: Are you normally on the fence when it comes to Home? I know I am. I get excited when I unlock stuff for it, but then the excitement dies afterwards. It's a strange feeling. #halowaypoint

    @metallicorphan: 800 points for Lvl 19?

    I've only got about 400 (played through Halo 3 campaign at a friends house).

    I wonder if my rank will be "Do you even know what Halo is?" #halowaypoint

    Avatar awards have made me decide to download this.

    Avatar awards have made me want to buy L4D2 sooner rather than later.

    Dear Microsoft, I think I sense a pattern.

    P.S. Please add UMass items to your university collection :(:(:( #halowaypoint
