Im one. Funny thing is I dont even own a 360. My roommate does and I told him that I would purchase the game cause I wanted to play so bad.

Wow. I love video games but taking off of work is a bit much. I dont know what all the hype is about. Anyone will be able to walk into a game store and buy this right of the shelf. It's really not that serious.

I kinda work in this industry and had friends on the Halo dev team (and couldnt get a free copy ) But I ordered the legendary version which is limited and came with a true scale master chief helmet. Cant walk in and get that. Why you ask? I got a little nerd in me.

It won't be in limited stock because they will have tons of copies but the stock will be accounted for eventually because Halo is basically the Harry Potter equivalent of video games. There are even numerous people buying the 360 just because of halo 3.
I remember back in college days every male house and some females had two video game systems. One was a Gamecube with Super Smash and the other was an xbox with Halo 1 and those games never left the console for the years that I remember.

quote: 'Halo 3' Packaging Scratches Disks By JESSICA MINTZ, AP Technology Writer (AP) -- Less than 24 hours after die-hard fans finally got their hands on a copy of "Halo 3," blogs brimmed with reports that special limited-edition packaging is scratching the video game disks.
Microsoft Corp., which owns the studio that makes "Halo 3," responded quickly on its Xbox Web site with details for a replacement program. Customers can fill out a form and send in their scratched limited-edition disks for a free exchange through the end of December.

I wonder how the packaging is scratching the disks. My buddy got the lengendary one and the games still come in the regular X box game case... I have 2 copies of Halo 3 between myself and friends, and have a 62in TV and a 52in TV side by side in the same room. 8 person halo 2 was fun, i cant wait for 8 person halo 3

Sweet setup. But, I really thought halo 2 was subpar compared to halo 1 and halo 3 beta.

LOL. Those are true classics. I think I was in middle school when those titles dropped. I remember playing street efighter 2 on the snes until 4am in the morning. LOL and a quarter of the time went into configuring the buttons because everyone had a different setup. I remember everyone played so much that we could set it up without looking at the screen.

thanks! I kinda agree, i like halo 1's multi player alot better, but i do have to say the multi player for Halo 3 is awesome. But some will like it some hate it. They have really neat power up things too now.

Well so far while I am enjoying H3 some of the changes in the buttons and how you pick up things are kind irritating. So far I dont think it is better than Gears of War. but I am loving the new guns and items like bubble shields. Still a great game but I think I may have psych'd myself up a bit too much so I feel kinda let down...lol.

I have all those games/systems. I still would never pay for any extra dough for a special edition game, HELLO its the exact same game in each package! Just let me play the damn game, thats all I want. All those extra knick knacks are for losers, a helmet are u fucking kidding me, lol? Its funny, I laugh when the game store employees trick kids into getting the so called 'special edition'. Gamers just play the game. I'll take and an extra 'NORMAL' version with out the extra shit and without spending an extra $60 if you please
Collectors edition of a video game ,.......LOL [ September 26, 2007, 03:15 PM: Message edited by: CLEEN 50 ]
