I almost wish they would release a single player version of the game and an online version one two different discs. I don't want to have an insane amount of online achievements so I'd kinda prefer two separate games, each at a slightly lower cost. I know that would never happen but it's something I've been thinking about after seeing some recent multiplayer achievements that I know I'll never obtain.

but that's just what people are willing to pay for extra merchandise, not the game itself
if they want to mess with people they could try to release the special versions 2 weeks earlier. that would be a more interesting test

releasing a halo 3 super duper collector edition is a test to see what people would pay for a collector edition. if lots of people buy a shiny helmet, then i see them packaging special shiny stuff to other blockbusters. but i don't see them using the success of halo 3 helmet edition to raise the price of standard editions of games

While i love Halo and buy into many things in the franchise i can't seriously consider 100$ for the extra discs. Especially since some of the decent documentaries will probably be on youtube within a week of its release.

Heh, gotta love the internet. Might save me the 40$ difference between the game and the "Legendary" edition.
The thing is i really do like the idea of a big huge cool box set but i would want to see more than just extra documentaries. Maybe if the Legendary came with some expansion maps that would be sold separately otherwise. Or if it included Halo 1 and 2 running on the new engine with slick new graphics i would be more likely to bite.

They forgot to release Halo2 in that configuration.

I just got a spam voicemail from Gamestop telling me about the upcoming Halo 3 pre-order. Another reason not to pre-order. They got my info from my Halo 2 pre-order, which was mentioned in the vm.
