Halo 03 |News & General| OFFICIAL


Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I've just noticed that Virgin Megastores have the Collectors Edition and Legendary Edition "deleted by supplier" yet my order still states "In Progress". Are they pulling orders because of the dodgy case or only have a limited supply?

My guess is it's from a limited supply since the Legendary Edition doesn't have problems with the case. It's only the Collector's Edition, so they wouldn't need to pull both if that was the reason.

that sucks!! I played online yesterday night and man I was kicking some ass!! I went up to Level 4. I played another game and they wooped me so bad! its not even funny and they lowerd my score to 2 =( whats up with that! lol

4? :rofl:

I apologize.

Hungarian gaming site Gamekapocs is reporting that some Halo fans couldn't wait to get Halo 3 legally, so they broke in to a video game store-house to get their hands on it. They recorded the whole burglary, you can watch it below.

When they are in the store they can't decide to get only one piece per people or a whole box. One of them asks ironically: "Do you want get rich from this or what?". So they finally don't take the whole box.

The video ends with showing the thiefs playing Halo 3 and saying: "September 26th, you know. Sure."

The closing caption: "You owe us one. :p"

Pretty sad if you ask me, that is if this isn't fake - I mean what idiot films themself stealing a damn videogame and then uploads it to the Internet?

Yeah, to add to the scratched disk point...I work for Best Buy, we have had a number of exchanges already. Hell, when I bought mine, I opened it before I left the store...and yes, I got a scratched one too. Luckily the one I exchanged it for was fine.

Microsoft To Offer Scratched Halo 3 Disc Replacements

Microsoft To Offer Scratched Halo 3 Disc Replacements Following numerous reports of scratched discs in Microsoft's just launched Halo 3 limited edition, the company has announced a new campaign to replace any damaged discs through the end of the year.

Reports of damaged discs circulated widely in the lead-up to the launch of the much-awaited game. Various press editors (including some of Gamasutra's own) and retailers have noted a high likelihood of the game disc having coming unstuck from its packaging post and subsequently scratched in shipping.

In response, Microsoft has announced a replacement program, accessible via the Xbox site which promises free discs through December 31st of this year.

The replacement program covers both the game disc and the bonus 'essentials' disc packed in the Halo 3 Limited Edition package. The standard and Legendary edition use different packaging that is not as susceptible to damage. After the end of the year, the charge for replacement discs will rise to $20 for U.S. customers.

Well, after what seemed to be an extremely long day at work, I get to leave in about 5-10 minutes.

I have to drive about 20 minutes out of the way that I normally take, and I am going to probably be hitting a hell of an amount of traffic, but it is to go pick up my paid in full copy of Halo 03 from Best Buy. Will be on tonight, more than likely just playing the Single Player campaign though, we will see.

shouldn't of happened in the first place really.. didn't the package manager think of this ahead of time?? from placing it into the container, to how much it would shake inside a truck shipping the thing, this should all be standard procedure.

glad to see microsoft acknowledged the problem, and is fixing it :)

i hoe the guy incharge of packaging doesn't receive a bonus lol

    • Cheap labour, the same as the U.K. China pays their people pittance.
    • Those people that come over here on boats are already in a safe country, if they want to come over here then do so correctly though the right channels. I was born in the U.K, my family that came over here came so via the proper means. My partner came here via the correct channels, she also became a British citizen, she knows more about this country than most of them that was born here, including myself, she worked hard to do what she does. She will stick up for this country and have done a few times, when people from her own part of world have put the U.K down. We are not going to agree, all I said to start with is that maybe Trump has the right idea with this America first thing and maybe we should start doing the same. Maybe not as drastic as what he is doing, but we do need to sort this country out, we need to sort out tech instead of relying on the U.S and others. Again you have not shown why you are so annoyed that we have left the E.U and this is what it is all about? If you don't live in the U.K and live in the E.U are you annoyed that we left your little club? If you live in the U.K and is pro-E.U, then fair enough then I can see how it annoys you. Are you one of these people who lives in the U.K and have a holiday chalet in the E.U and can now only stay there for so long? If so, then that is bad luck. As I have posted before, I have no problem with people coming here to work, as long as they do if via the proper channels. We are out of the E.U, people voted out, and maybe if more people had voted instead of sitting on their backsides the results would have been different. But they like the E.U and our government thought no we would not vote to leave. How wrong they were, surprised me. I expected to wake up in the morning and hear on the radio that we voted to stay. As I said, we are out and have been for 10 years, we are not going to go back in anytime soon if we ever do, so we all need to make the best of how things are. Anyway, this is supposed to be a tech site.
    • Tim Cook: "The US over time began to stop having as many vocational kinds of skills." What's the point of wasting time getting those skills if you can't get a job with them? Good Lord, maybe he and his cohort of CEO's who exported all these jobs to China should just shut the f**k up :D
    • I made a new Cinematic/Trailer for the game, this will be the intro, still a work in progress!  I also updated the Steam page with a ton of new screenshots! 👀 https://store.steampowered.com/app/3925340/Incoherence_Dark_Rooms/
