    Default Halo 3 Legendary edition - New price $129.99!!!

    I was at my local game stop yesterday and I was informed that they were taking reserves for Halo 3, and that there would be not 1, not 2, but 3 editions of the game, the standard release, limited edition and a $100 legendary edition with a spartan helmet and tons of other stuff. I was told that they were only doing limited reserves on this and would stop after this weekend.

    BTY it is $25 to reserve the legendary edition.

    EDIT: Game Stop has called everyone (March 16, 2007) and informed that the new suggested retail price for the Halo 3 Legendary edition will be priced at a whopping $129.99!

    probably ridiculous for regular editions, but my guess is stores wont be getting many "legendary" editions so I can see preordering those in advance. No way in hell I am spending $100 for halo though, I will be fine with the $60 edition.

    I think they should keep pushing the ceiling till people stop buying. I bet they'll sell every single one of the Legendary Editions.

    I reserved mine just a few minutes ago....
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    EBX at my mall has a sign on the window that they're now taking Halo 3 reserves.

    But it's Halo guys!

    My name is Nick, and I paid $100 for a not so limited edition 360 game.

    Well, Halo or not I'll buy it for the game... and if so inclined I'll pay extra for the nifty helmet and other stuff, IF it's worth it, might be some cool junk.

    If it's not, I'll pass for the regular version.

    $100 for the Spartan version? Not bad. Too bad FPS games make me really sick.

    WOW. Whoever comes up with these ideas gains my highest respect. He just doubled the price of a game using a helmet. More capatilist ingenuity, just like xbox live marketplace.

    Best part about this?

    I know plenty of fools still complaining about the PS3's price point, but then immediately tell me they're buying this $100 special edition.

    I'm sorry, I find spending $100 a game (Oh, the micro-rape-ments will be interesting as well) more ridiculous than spending $600 on a console. Both are still absurd though.

    Amen to that brother. I hate people who single-handedly define hypocrisy.
