Xbox 360 Halo 3 Special Edition Confirmed for Sept. 16th Posted by XanTium | September 14 21:13 EST | News Category: Xbox360

From the Microsoft press release: [QUOTE] The battle may not begin until Sept. 25, but "Halo" fans can prepare for the epic fight with the release the Xbox 360 Halo 3 Special Edition Console on Sept. 16 for an estimated retail price of $399.99 (U.S.). Frags will be even sweeter with the Xbox 360 Halo 3 Special Edition Console, which features an authentic Spartan green and gold finish and comes with matching Xbox 360 Wireless Controller, Xbox 360 20GB Hard Drive, Xbox 360 Headset, Xbox 360 Play & Charge Kit, and exclusive Halo 3 Gamer Pics and Theme available via Xbox LIVE® download. Xbox 360 Halo 3 Special Edition Console will be available for a limited time and presale demand has been incredible. True Spartans shouldn't wait to get their consoles. The Xbox 360 Halo 3 Special Edition Console will be the perfect addition to any "Halo" fan's arsenal and pairs perfectly the recently released Xbox 360 Limited Edition Halo 3 Wireless Controllers and Xbox 360 Limited Edition Halo 3 Wireless Headset. Created by legendary developer Bungie Studios and exclusive to the Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system, "Halo 3" will set a new standard for interactive storytelling and social gaming by engaging consumers worldwide in Master Chief's epic battle to save humankind. In November 2004, the world's view of video games changed forever with the release of "Halo 2," which generated a record-setting $125 million (U.S.) in sales within the first 24 hours and changed the way people think about interactive entertainment. Three years later, it remains the most-played game on Microsoft's Xbox LIVE® online gaming and entertainment network, with nearly 1 billion hours of online gaming logged to date. [/QUOTE]

"Finish the Fight... against menstruation! When the flood attacks, call Master Chief!"

Thanks! Made my freaking day!

[mlmadmax]

That comic was absolutely halarious, meade my day as well.

It would have been genius to include Halo 3 in the bundle and release it before Sept. 25
All of those on the edge whether or not to get a new system can buy this as a backup and get Halo 3
Or the hardcore Halo fans could buy the entire system just for the game. Microsoft would make a lot.

[DaShiZNiT]

hah hah

if they made it some poof would buy it you know it!
