Halo 3 Limited Edition Console and Controller Packaging Shown

As you can see the box art for the console is pretty sweet but even more sweeter is that you can get your very own little Master Chief to help you save the planet come September 25th if you pick yourself up a new LE Halo 3 controller.

Follow the link to see the photos.

i want that little master chief figure. it looks sweet

Skynetone6837d ago (Edited 6837d ago )

i want that little master chief figure too

but you can keep the special edition toaster

bill do you think we should include the game with this, let them suffer

HaKeRsCanRotINHEL6837d ago

Somethings afoul here!? Perhaps Master Chief's up to no good making boot-leg 360's for his own personal gain. LOL :)

Daytona6837d ago (Edited 6837d ago )

Obviously that's not the controller that comes in the special Halo 3 edition, that's just an OTC version. The special edition is that Army Green that they used, to be honest it looks good, but I'd rather seen the more original halo colors used. Master Chiefs grayish whatever or even white and that "neon purple" used. That would of been cool.

Awww, who says they wont release another color combo later when they start doing a special Xbox360 version pre packed w/Halo 3.

the box is awesome...would have loved to see the box color, blueish / midnight black, with maybe the Halo symbol emblazoned on it, to be the color of the console... but that's just my opinion...instead of Exorcist pea soup green! but its Halo, and I love Halo...I won't be buying it, but I do want the BK meal (lol)...I'm cheap, I know...and hungry, i guess...oh, and the Spartan and Covenant controllers look real nice...definitely will get one of those

Goshyujin_Sama6837d ago

I read that this bundle dosent even come with the actual Halo 3 game, if thats true then this is just stupid.

Daytona6837d ago

as I said above, I'll bet after a brief release and just before xmas 07 that MS will release a prepacked combo of the two.

Fingers crossed anyways.

ThaGeNeCySt6837d ago

ewl that controller isn't appealing

kcdude6837d ago

At first I actually thought it was kind of cool but then I noticed the bottom of the controller, it looks white as if the Halo 3 graphic is just a sticker or something like that. I mean, it can't be a sticker but they could have at least made the whole controller blue and added more Halo 3 details. Also, the Master Chief figurine doesn't even look poseable. That sucks.

That's Microsoft's gaming division for you...kill off developers making new ip while trying to capitalize off some long lost glory that has no hope of ever being what it once was thanks to recent decision making favoring unrealistic profit goals and greed. What a joke.

Reaper22_197d ago

So much bitterness. Why be upset over something like this. Just don't buy it and stick with what you prefer.

Tacoboto197d ago

Complaining about Microsoft is the only thing people comment here for anymore.

This website is practically dead without it

Mmmkay197d ago

I remember when you guys constantly complained about Sony remaking and remastering games. Guess it is cool now. As usual.

thesoftware730197d ago

Give it rest medman..., take a deep breath and try to not sound so invested in something no one is forcing you to read, buy, or play.

"Console war"is over, Sony won, be happy.

medman192d ago (Edited 192d ago )

@thesoftware730
I'm invested in people losing their jobs and their livelihoods while Microsoft execs tout record profits for their gaming division. Not sure why you wouldn't be invested. Could be you one day. Good luck.

Travesty197d ago

So what’s their solution to having multiplayer? Wait until Halo 7?
That was one of the most memorable parts of Halo..

monkey602197d ago

I'm not sure spending the heavy investment in time to recreate the multiplayer here is the answer either though.
Remaking the campaigns is a great idea to bring the new players up to speed. But if the multiplayer is included in each it'll just fracture the player base of each release.
I think it might be better to turn these campaigns out quicker and have 1 multiplayer game to keep everyone in one place

Travesty197d ago

Maybe having an Halo Online and just release the Combat Evolve maps. And when Halo 2 releases have those maps release. I don’t know but I would like to play a newer version of Halo multiplayer. I know times have changed, and Fortnite is all younger kids really play. But back then it was Halo and you connecting 6 Xbox’s together lol.

jjb1981197d ago

I agree. I think that'll segment the playerbase and once 7 comes out, players might realize it sucks and go back to the older games. Especially if 7 is live-servixe, they'll be shooting themselves in the foot on the one good leg they have to stand on.

crazyCoconuts197d ago

Kinda surprised they didn't just port MCC.
Maybe more $ to by made with separate remasters

Inverno197d ago

Wouldn't have that problem if it were MCC being released. Gotta wait for 7 to be disappointed with MP all over again cause if they half baked Infinite what makes people think they won't half bake the next game? MP works in past HALO games not cause of nostalgia but because it's MP that isn't concerned with the endless service approach.

JEECE197d ago

There is so much cognitive dissonance over Infinite. People say they didn't like it because it was a live service. Yet if you look at what the criticisms of it were at the time it came out and when the playerbase started falling off, the primary issue people had was a lack of updates. In other words, it wasn't enough of a live service.

Which is really an encapsulation of the problem with multiplayer today. So many people think that they want to go back to the "good old days" of mid-2000s multiplayer (The first few Halos, Socom, the first few Battlefields, CS 1.6, etc), but in reality if a multiplayer game like that came out today, people would whine about the lack of content within a month of launch and go back to a live service with a grindy progression system.

isarai197d ago

Why not just port the MCC? 🤔 That was the easiest layup ever and you completely missed it

franwex197d ago

30% profit margins! People will pay $70+ for remakes!

Software_Lover197d ago

I thought the same thing, then I realized that they wouldn't include the remakes in that edition. We may get a different version of Halo MCC in the future with all of the remakes included. I just want them to include Halo 5 at some point for PC.

TheColbertinator197d ago

Can they remake Reach too with the multiplayer?

Knightofelemia197d ago

I wonder if Microsoft will port Reach over to Playstation I quite enjoyed that game. I played Halo 3 and it was not bad I have Halo 2 on the OG Xbox I just need some cables to hook up to my tv to play it.

Infinite is a dumpster fire and as much as I like ODST, in no universe it ranks above Halo 2. This list is trash.

Kaii859d ago

Just exclude Infinite>5>4

ChasterMies859d ago

Best to worst: Halo 3, Halo 2, Halo Reach, Halo CE, Halo 4, Halo ODST, Halo Infinite, Halo 5.
