Was just about to post that; definitely the best one so far and it's not even that short!

Edit: your link doesn't work, try this one.

[goji]

w o w. It reaps of classic Halo goodness, the music is outstanding. "Under Cover of Night" never sounded better!

Yes there is a small promotion for the first few days. To play multiplayer on other games and after the promotion, you will need to subscribe. Unless you have 1 month trials left over on your 360. You can use them also. Eventually you gotta cough up though :)

[Starman]

Is there a place you can download these short films from? They all seems to be scattered.

[zerolimit]

WOW!! that discovery preview was awsome! Wow! Game kick ass guys! I give it ...

Graphics - 9

Story - 10

Gameplay - 10

it comes with a free trial inside the box... well mine did anyways.. but i thought it was a 48 hour trial, not a 72 hour, BUT i could be wrong.

if anybody is getting halo 3 tomorrow & is up for campaign it says up to 4 players can play to get the achievements

After reading Tom Chick's review that I posted earlier in the thread (http://www.quartertothree.com/inhouse/news/365/), I'm preparing for the worst and hoping for the best.

I normally hate Chick's reviews as they seem extremely jaded and critical of everything... but he leverages many of the same claims I had against the first two Halo games and says they're still paramount in the third. The horrible level design, "story," backtracking, and similar complaints.

I still plan on getting the game at midnight, but I won't hold my breath about it being much of an evolution :(

as of right now, matchmaking isn't available online, so you NEED to add the person to your friendslist, and invite them.

you MAYBE able to have up to 16 people doing co-op, since under the menu, it says "Max 16" BUT.. if you have more than 4, co-op may get disabled...

so you may wanna post your gametag, and tell people what difficulty you wanna do it on.

Legendary is a bitch

Just to let all you gameplay.com order'rers know that their copy should have been dispatched :)

Mine has :)

[jelli]

My Play.com order for the Limited Edition has also been dispatched today, let the waiting game begin!

Woohoo mine too! Aren't they being sent first class with Parcel Force though? That means it would arrive tomorrow? :|

If it's an LE, possibly, I've know Parcel Farce to **** up monumentality in the past.

Here's hoping though. If so sickie on Wednesday! :p

[Guest]

To: Jonathan Steele. Your order for Halo 3: Legendary Edition has been posted.

:drool:

Surely a package of that size need some form of special delivery?

[Lingwo]

If you got the LE edition then i still think it would be with Royal Mail, might just turn up in the van instead.

Either way you should receive it tomorrow and definitely receive it if paid 99p for first class delivery.

That's why I'm concerned. I didn't pay anything extra, and delivery with Play is never speedy.

But with it being a large package, it might come earlier than normal. Wishful thinking I guess.

[Lingwo]

Well if you don't receive it tomorrow then you'll definitely get it on the Wednesday.

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

I ordered the Legendary edition, so I think they'll use Parcel Force with them. I didn't bother with first class though, Gameplay always send me games early. I hope to god it arrives before my lecture tomorrow :pinch: :woot:
