Dell joins the bandwagon of shops breaking Halo 3 street date |
Ó
UK's Argos does it. Norway's Expert also does it. Now Dell's online shop in the US joins in the Halo street date-breaking wagon, sending a happy gamer (appropriately named Mr. Pr0zac) his copy of Halo 3 a day early.Mr. Pr0zac thanks both Dell and the DHL shipping service for sending him his copy of Halo 3 with more than prompt shipping, shown in this picture included in an article from The Consumerist. How's that for giving the guy a headstart in playing the game ahead of his peers?
It's a good thing that Microsoft won't penalize early Halo 3 gamers after all, what with all these stores breaking street dates and letting happy gamers try out Halo 3 ahead of the pack. However, make sure that the Halo 3 copy that you have right now is the real thing: Microsoft won't hesitate to banhammer all those who use pirated copies of Bungie's masterpiece, all the way to year 9999.

Granted this carry on sucks, but sometimes it's legit.
My online retailer informed me it's common for them to send them a day early for a hopefully morning delivery. While my Halo didn't get here until the 25th, I recently ordered another item that somehow got to my house within 25 minutes of shipping! Obviously just luck, turns out they are in my suburb and the courier took it upon himself to bypass the transfer station.
I'm just saying his image provides no proof of date other than being posted today, and it's entirely possible it was just a lucky run with the courier. It's bollocks when a company breaks street date, but I doubt that's what happened here from the information we have. If you're going to bad mouth Dell, at least do it for their prices LOL (in NZ at least)
