So everyone really is sold out of the legendary edition?

Because couldn't you just buy that edition at right about $50 extra?

Anybody looking for a Live subscription, Buy.com has the Halo 12+1 month deal for $38.77, if you use GCO it's $28.77 with free shipping. http://www.buy.com/prod/xbox-360-liv...204305508.html

I live in the boonies, only place I can get any video games much less Halo 3 is walmart or kmart, neither is carrying the Legendary as far as I know.

I liked the 1/2 off Labor Day Sale much better. :(

Are you looking for the one with the HD Making of, or the disc that has all of the cinematics from Halo/Halo2 on it?

Great, except that of course, most of us are waiting to see if we got Frogger for free from the recent Microsoft promotion. Nice to see them starting to have sales though. And Billiards is still too expensive...

Mok 09-24-07 06:24 PM

Damn it looks like with this sale there will be no new games this week. I want Puzzle Quest!

Michael Corvin 09-24-07 06:45 PM

I'd get spades, but from what I've read on the Xbox forums the general rule of play is different than the way I grew up playing, so :(

The one with the Halo/2 cinematics.

Saw multiple people in line tonight buying 360s with their Halo 3 purchase. I wonder how many people were just waiting for Halo 3 before they hopped on the next-gen bandwagon.

One guy had the Halo 360, Halo 3 Legendary, Halo wireless headset, Halo controllers, and a strategy guide. :eek: That's a lot of damn money for one game... and almost the price of a PS3. ;)

A good friend of mine did exactly this. He bought a 360 on Sat. solely because of Halo's Tues. release. When I recommended a few other titles to him (R6: Vegas, Gears, Dead Rising), he responded that he's only interested in Halo 3. He said he might try the other later, but for now, he's satisfied with his $400+ Halo purchase.

I saw that they have a very nice bundle at Costco : Halo Console, Halo 3 LE and the Halo controller for $499.99.

pinata242 09-25-07 01:42 PM

I can't wait to see the spike in VGChartz that this last week will show. I just can't believe that it took 22 months for these "Halo Hardcore" to jump on the 360 bandwagon. That's restraint that I don't even have and I still don't own any retail 360 games!

fumanstan 09-25-07 02:31 PM

I played Halo 1 on PC but never played Halo 2. I'm really curious about 3, but I really need to play through Bioshock first before i think about buying a new game.

How's Halo 2 look through the 360? I think i might borrow a friend's and give that a go in the single player before looking at Halo 3. I think i'd be more into the story then the multiplayer.

Better than it did on the OG Xbox.

Yep, Gamerscoreblog hasn't annouced anything. I'm not too impressed with the sale either.

A-aron 09-26-07 07:55 AM

There is a new add-on pack for Bomberman .. 200 points .. includes 2 new levels, 10 costumes, and some kind of "bomb defense" thing ..

DJ_Longfellow 09-26-07 08:00 AM

Anyone have any issues getting into the Marketplace last night around 9:00-10:00pm EST? I could play LIVE just fine, but when I tried to download Demos/Themes/etc, the right error guide popped up saying there were issues accessing the Marketplace or something like that.

Halo 3 worked at least.

I'm sure it had to do with the heavy traffic on Halo 3. Friends list on the website was disabled too and that was the explanation they posted. No banner ads were displaying in the various blades either.

According to 360 Fanboy, the games are 50% off. I haven't check to verify, but that would put Bankshot at only 600 points, if true.

Mok 09-26-07 08:48 AM

Hmmm I may get Bankshot then 600pts is not bad.

pinata242 09-26-07 08:53 AM

I did just verify on my 360, the games are 50% off. Frogger is 200, Spades is 200, and Billiards is 600.

I want to buy them so bad but I'm still waiting on that stupid promotion to see what the free games are from there. Hopefully these 50% off prices isn't a fluke and will last until Tuesday.

Michael Corvin 09-26-07 09:00 AM

Spades may not be too bad at that price.

Brewc 09-26-07 09:06 AM

Mike sent you 2 PM's did you not get them? can you LMK about the third disc?
