So who skipped school today to get and/or play Halo 3 today? I'm in one of my tech classes and there are quite a few people "missing".

BTW, you can buy it on Newegg for $54, so I dont see why everyone was camping out for it, unless they just couldnt wait a day for shipping :rolleyes:

I gotta go work so can't stay home and play... :(
anyway I got my legendary edition for $119 compared to the suggested retail price $130
and NewEgg got it to my door at 5pm yesterday before the launch

I'm not a Halo fanatic, so indulge me. Whats so great about the legendary edition for more then twice the price of the regular version?
 
well, it includes all the other stuff like the re-done cinematics from all the previous Halo games... But im sure you know what comes with the package...
the main reason I got it is basically just the helmet... looks kinda cool sitting on top of my TV cabinet. :D:D
its more like a cool factor rather than usefulness... :P:P

I actually didnt know, but then again I never even looked for the pricing on the different packages. I guess it's a great buy for all the Halo fanatics though. :)
 
well, over here its released tomorrow. I'm going to the shop at 10AM (when it opens), and head back home again. I dont skip school for a game, but this time I dont have school that day, wich is quite fortunate :)
 
I just dont get it its a game why people would skip work and school which i know people doing both today to play it is beyond me. I'm a gamer but never have been to the point where i wait in line knowing i can get it the next day just fine and also i have never skipped work or school to play my games hell i used to always do my hw before games sheesh i just must not be nerdy enough or something i dont know...

This is a quote from NewEgg as to what is included in the package other than the helmet.

The first disk will provide:
Exclusive, behind-the-scenes footage, including a HD "Making of 'Halo 3'" documentary showcasing the Bungie team and its effort to create the most anticipated title in the industry's history.
Numerous HD featurettes documenting the creative design processes involved in developing the game and their evolution through the game's development.
An audio-visual calibration tool, never before seen on a video game and custom designed by the "Halo 3" graphics and audio team to make the most of high-definition home theaters, for the ultimate "Halo 3" and Xbox 360™ audio and video performance.

The second bonus disk, exclusive to the Legendary Edition, will include:
Bestiarum – an expanded digital guide to the creatures, cultures and worlds of Halo 3, with exclusive art and assets.
Remastered cinematic material from "Halo: Combat Evolved" and "Halo 2," and a featurette documenting a day in the life at Bungie.
Exclusive content from the creative minds behind Machinima artists "Red vs. Blue" and "This Spartan Life."
An illuminating collection of original "Halo 3" storyboard art from artist Lee Wilson, depicting key moments and pivotal scenes from the epic cinematic production of "Halo."

Yeah, I guess its more for fanatics though. I have been playing Halo since the first installment. Heck, the reason I bought Xbox is because of Halo actually.

But I don't think I am crazy enough to go skipping class or work to play the game.

Just depends on what your priorities are I guess. I didn't skip school for this but I am skipping two days of school for the Dream Theater and Symphony X concert in Helsinki tomorrow. :D
 
Halo 3 was the biggest disappointment of the year for me... its Halo 2, Episode 2 with more HDR.... the are just doing it for the money at this point, they have almost no new ideas for the game.
 
Didn't skip, but some of my friends did and I probably will Oct. 10th when OJ box gets released and I can play my HL2 EP2.
 
This poll is a f'n joke!!!! You ASSuME That we are young a"holes like you! I wouldn't waste my time or money for that shit!!! You also didn't leave a poll for us that won't buy it.
 
I was so mad. A few kids skipped (none of my friends). But then i realized i didnt have 360...but i guess i could have gone to their house. But no i went. haha but i have 3rd period out so im done with school at 11:20 every other day but then all my friends were at shool so i couldnt play.

Learn to play nice or you'll be sent to the corner to think about what you did. And no peeking either!

No, i haven't the money to buy a 360. But If I did have one you can bet your ass I'd have gotten it. I'da probably slept in till 3PM though, like usual, and then sleepily dragged myself to the local gamecrazy to see if they hadn't sold out.

But no, What I want is zelda: phantom hourglass for the DS. It totally kicks Halo's ass.

What is your problem? This poll might be a joke yes, I didn't buy and am in no way offended... In other threads you have thrown fits like this about H3. Chill out, it's not a big deal...

I agree. What is this world coming to? I honestly don't see the point of these games that are "fantasies". But I guess that's because I only play what I consider real games(Madden, Gran turismo, NFS, test drive, etc.)

What point of "take a joke" do you guys not understand? This is Computer Forum not the haters' forum... But, I will hook you up with this... "The Hall of Hatred":D
