Halo 3 problems
- Thread starter EMP650
- Start date
Hours after fans got the popular Halo 3 video game came word of a packaging glitch that could send thousands of Limited Edition discs back to the manufacturer.
In general, the scratched discs, which retail for $69.99, still play. But Microsoft Corp., which owns the studio that makes Halo 3, responded quickly with details for a replacement program.
“People are frustrated because they wanted to go home and play it right away,” said Breann Morgan, a Best Buy employee in Bellevue, Wash.
Customers can fill out a form and send in their scratched limited-edition discs for a free exchange through the end of December.
Microsoft is selling the limited-edition version in a tin decorated with the Halo 3 logo. A regular copy of the game costs about $60.
The software maker said the Xbox 360 video game brought in $170 million in sales on its first day in U.S. stores. That met Microsoft’s goal of making the game the biggest entertainment release in history, surpassing “Spider-Man 3” and the final Harry Potter novel. More than 1.7 million copies of “Halo 3” were preordered.

I went to a store to buy it at midnight, and all the people who bought the limited edition returned it saying all of the limited editions where fucked up. who buys limited editions anyway? you just going to play the game right? only geeks want that "making of halo 3" bullshit! not unless they come with extra levels and some gamer points to download different shit.
wow, fuckin warhawk. thats a system seller. i can see millions of kids sayin to their parents, please please get me warhawk for christmas so i dont feel left out at school.
and EMP650, xbox's will freeze for certain games after a period of time. my xbox would freeze playing far cry a couple of times. its not the game disc or anything like that its just the beginning of the end for your xbox. you will get the 3 red rings pretty soon.

lol @ idiots that think warhawk is a kids game, ummm last time i checked its an online only game and seriously anybody that has a PS3 has it that i know and is addicted. Kids are buying the Wii like crazy, dont mean the Wii is that good of a system. Only 360 owners would really talk shit about it. Most folks is saying the new halo isnt that good, but theres always obsessed players that dont care.
