[Xbox] Halo "I Love Bees" DVD

[ubersaurus]

I noticed this wasn't in the guide when I checked. Essentially it's a DVD that came out before Halo 2's release that detailed the "I Love Bees" alternate reality game, and included photographs of players and the entire story's audio.

It wasn't sold, but rather given out at the 4 "training events" i.e. Halo 2 multiplayer public plays, and at 27 theaters across the country. At the theaters at least, it was 50 discs per building, which means there's over 1300 copies of it floating around. Still a pretty small print run, and considering that there's a whole lot of Halo fans as well as players of the game itself who want copies(and those with them are not apt to let go of em), I could see this being a pretty rare piece of Halo memorabilia in the future.

Anyway, I'm not entirely sure if it belongs in the guide, but if the Halo 2 prerelease DVD with the trailers on it is in there, I don't see why this shouldn't.

I dunno.... I got one once they first appeared on ebay and paid a PRETTY penny for it and the lanyard from the NY event (are there other lanyards?). I see it as a HALO thing, but not a XBox thingie. However, if there are things like the Zelda DS trailer and similar items out there, on the list already then It should be added into extras cause thats what it is. The game got pretty damn big towards the end.

The difference with the Zelda trailer is that it is a DS cartridge. If the Halo disc is a standard DVD with no XBox content, then it really wouldn't have a section to fall under.

While this is true, you can't deny the scope of the DVD is far, far larger than anything like an acton figure, or a halo shirt.

Aren't the Activision patches in the old 2600 section(as a group)? I don't see this as any different than that, really.

Indeed, it belongs in the "Memorabilia" section.
