Weapon lowering has been a huge thorn in machinima maker’s sides since the start of Halo 3. When ATF was soley a machinima team we felt the pain just like everyone else. People tried to get Bungie to listen in the beginning, but they seemed to ignore the outcries from the community. There is a group of people who have rallied on Bungie.net under one banner, Lower The Guns, in one last attempt to get Bungie to allow weapon lowering on Xbox Live.

Their plan is to mount the largest boycott of Xbox Live history against Halo 3 on it’s birthday (9/25/08). Now I’m not one to think anything like this will work…especially with only a few hundred people, but I figure if more and more people throw their support in something might happen. So if you support Bungie allowing weapon loweing join their group Lower The Guns on Bungie.net and boycott Halo 3 on 9/25/08.

So you may have heard of this little event going on this weekend…MLG Orlando? Yea it’s a pretty big thing. Anyways so here is the live feed! Watch it! You might have 400 babies.

Edit: Apparently it’s not live yet…just wait I guess. Damn MLG.
