Go for it. Their rep is pretty damn gone considering the amount of sales they've made. Pay via PayPal and you have the payment protection scheme just incase. What is there to think about? Buy it!

Sign onto live and see how many people are playing it online bud. Let me know...

They're not doing it anymore (Only for Microsoft staff) but Microsoft were handing out Live bans for people who played Halo 3 early online. Think they've come to accept that alot of people have the game now due to stores breaking the street date.
Not a fan of the Halo series myself...

Is it out this week then?

It's out on the 26th of this month mate. Which is a Wednesday?

However, some stores across Europe and America are breaking the release date and selling it early. Argos here in the UK have broken the release date in some stores. Allowing people to order the game via their website to pick up at their local store.

Reading the internet torrent sites Halo 3 has been leaked and patched plus region free, damn that was fast, no only if my 360 was modded.

Any good getting it modded. I can easily mod it myself.

For those that are interested.. PES2008 Demo now on XBL!
Shit, I can't believe Halo is nearly here, I'm still playing Bioshock. I can't cope with more than one FPS at a time.

Jesus christ Pro Evo is taking forever! It's been downloading for four hours and is currently stuck at 70%. C'mon!!
Also, people are reporting Tesco having Halo 3 in stock and on the shelves for any die hards out there.

I seriously wouldn't try Halo 3 online yet till the official release date unles you want to get banned - Apparently it's alread up on torrents via the medium of priatey goodness.
I haven't tried the pirated version though and I wouldn't risk it if i were you either.
Probably a virus. Or Porn. OR A PORN VIRUS!

Yeah, if you pre-ordered it from Argos you can collect it from today apparently, acording to Game Central on teletext.

I got an original XBox at Christmas and bought the first 2 Halo games because of all the talk I'd heard about how great they are.
I think I'm missing something though. Been playing Halo 1 and there's just an endless stream of cartoony aliens.
I'm still on the ship so admittedly I've not played it for very long but it doesn't actually make me feel like playing it for very long!
Compared to Half Life 2 or even Far Cry Instincts, Halo just seems average. I'm just glad they only cost £5 each.
The reason why the halo series of games are liked so much is because of the amazing online modes!
jisthebest50
Sep 22 2007, 11:19
The online Feature IS the only strong point about Halo everything else is Average.
