Halo 3 testing officially began last week, giving Halo insiders a chance to get their hands on the next installment of Halo: The Master Chief Collection before it is released to the world, and 343 Industries community director Brian Jarrad said yesterday that more people are being invited to the test, which has been extended until June 26, and also issued a very stern warning to all who participate.

Jarrard did not elaborate on what he meant by "consequences in the retail game," but the warning echoes a statement Jarrard made in June, before the Halo 3 testing began. Racism and bigotry have no place in the world or in Halo." We have a zero tolerance policy and are committed to taking further action to eliminate such behavior from our games and community," he tweeted. The Burnhammer is on fire." Consider this your only warning."

On June 5, 343 Industries pledged to donate all sales of Halo 5: Guardians REQ Packs purchased between June 19 and July 19 to the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, with June 19 being "the day that Juneteenth" and is an unofficial U.S. holiday commemorating the reading of the federal order declaring all slaves free in Galveston, Texas. The Emancipation Proclamation had formally abolished slavery more than two years earlier, but as PBS explains, the news traveled slowly and enforcement was uneven. Thus, the reading of the Emancipation Proclamation on June 19 by Gen. Gordon Granger was accepted as a "day of assembly."

Thanks, Gamespot.
