*UPDATED* Official Halo 3 release date announced; special Zune-Halo 3 edition on its way, too |
Ó
September 25: Bungie's Halo 3 officially lands. The countdown begins now.
We're dead sure those two statements are enough to get you Halo fans giddy with anticipation over the arrival of what is deemed to be this year's biggest event in the entertainment industry. Says Peter Moore, Microsoft's Corporate VP:
Halo 3 is much more than a video game release... On September 25, we intend to deliver a finale that will go down in entertainment history and leave people around the world with an experience that will be shared and enjoyed for years to come.
Running up to that big bang of an event is the kick off of Halo 3's multiplayer beta's Xbox Live debut on May 16. This will give gamers all around the world an exclusive preview at some of the highlights of the multiplayer elements on the last of the Halo trilogy. And to add some more excitement to all these, Microsoft will even be throwing in a special edition Zune digital media player for Halo 3.
This Zune-Halo 3 player will come with pre-loaded artwork, trailers, and of course, music from the complete trilogy. There will also be an exclusive new episode of "Red vs. Blue" from LLC. Retailer GameStop will be carrying the Zune-Halo 3 exclusively starting June 15, and will be tagged at an estimated retail price of US$ 249.
Update: We received word that interested folks can now pre-order the Zune-Halo 3 player over at GameStop starting June 15. This deal is exclusive to GameStop, so you might want to check this out immediately as we're pretty much certain a lot of people will be wanting those exlusive artwork, OST, and videos from Halo, Halo 2, and Halo 3. The limited Zune-Halo 3 players will be going for US$ 249.

Yeah! Can't wait!
nice job MS
nice job.. milk the halo 3 cow
$249 for a Zune at Gamestop? What kid will say, "Mommy, please buy me the music thing instead of a Wii?"
Micro, drop it to $100 and call it a day. It's 30 GB, yippie...
what parent would tell their kid, okay, go pick out whatever you want for 250 bucks and ill buy it for you. i dont think little kids are the target consumer here, moron
Why in the world would they make it $100 when apple sells theres for like $300 and $350, especially when they can make profit at this rate. Maybe $200 but never $100.
Ill think well see a lot of three rings of death.....
Which happened to me when playing GOW.
I believe its because theyre demanding 2 much from the console...(well for the old-built version)
THIS IS BULL*****!
F UCK YOU! F UCK YOU! F UCK YOU IN THE AS S!
I guess your right. When they release new Xbox 360 games now all the consoles go "please, not a new game, i cant handle a new game made with the same engine as previous ones"
Moron.
I never thought I'd stupe this low but:
Still, when a new game is eventually released for the PS3 we'll see if your console bricks...
Im just so glad I got a 360 the amount of games out and coming out is just amazing, and to think they beat the competition by a whole year and the enormous power it has, I bet MS are proberly already far ahead of the competition for the next gen machines in a couple of years, and hopefully they will keep away from the movie player idea and stick to what it does best PLAY GREAT GAMES....
