Bungie Day, which occurs every year on July 7th, is a celebration of Bungie’s long standing infatuation with the number seven and all things Halo. The date, when shortened, is 7/7 and that very day is now! If you fancy a flaming helmet in Halo 3, you better get loading since it is only available for the next 24hrs.

Quoted by Bungie

For years now you’ve all sat by watching Bungie employees run amok through Halo 3 with our fancy flaming helmets. This special secret armor is reserved only for our team but today, in honor of Bungie Day, we’re loaning our fancy chest piece to you, our awesome fans.

This is a one-day only affair so get in there and get your flame on before it’s too late. You should find a very sexy new chest piece, the one that resembles a sports bra, that will automatically ignite flames on your head when you go into the game. You’ll also get a Bungie emblem by your name in the lobby. For today only, you can experience a taste of what it’s like to be on the inside.

Let the corpse humping flaming madness begin!

From tomorrow the Bungie Day Flames will be reset, but if it has given you a taste of fire in Halo multiplayer, the Halo: Reach Legendary Edition to be released on September 14th will enable the flaming effect for all gametypes within that game.

Feel free to share your Bungie Day ‘Halo 3′ screenshot and video links in the comments section below.
