It's coming Nov 2007, microsoft PR said it will arrive roughly 6 months after the launch of the public beta. Halo 1 came Nov 15th 2001, Halo 2 came Nov 9th 2004, so Halo 3 is no exception.

yeah that sucks but you guys have a nice 2 years warranty from microsoft which costs are 40 pounds to buy separately.

Full Stop these drives are 2.5 inch laptop drives.....no such size even exist.

Sounds like they're preping for a new SKU......but hold on wasn't the beauty of the ps3 that you can add in your own harddrive if your wanted to so whats the point.

He should have opened and claimed the glory for the first person to unbox the elite and capture all that on film, then put it on ebay. Maybe host the video himself and litter it with google ads and easily make up for 10 times the cost of the elite ;)

I feel that games are meant for entertainment and focusing on an individual title is rather dumb. Who cares if you cant play Blue Dragon on ps3 or final fantasy on xbox 360, the point is there are other games that have the same game style. All that matters is if fans of that genre have a flow of quality games to fill the desire for RPG, playstation fans have the FF titles and xbox fans have the mistwalker titles, so everyone is fat and everyones fed. Only problem is when there is a lack of a ...

'the el33t looks nice but most def not worth it when you're going to lose all your data\gamertag. '

You can always recover your account as long as you know the email address and password. All data can be re-downloaded off the marketplace since it links all your previous downloads to your gamertag. There is also a transfer cable that ships with the 120GB that transfers all the data over in 1 big step and takes care of all the DRM stuff along with that. The cable is called the Xb...

Looks really great now...i like how the tire hugs the ground and doesnt slide around like some games.

I click the link and it refers to none other than nextgenwars.com, so ya there goes the credibility same with VGA charts. The only real numbers to check out are the ones released by NPD and they dont include big retailers such as Walmart or so Ive heard. Honestly though, companies have always used this ship figure, sony does it too. To the manufactuer ship=sale since companies like best buy or wal mart pay for consoles when they receive them so microsoft or sony gets the money right away. The...

Is 20 GB actually a significany jump to justify a new SKU, I have a feeling they are going to add something else, what they need is a ps3 core like what they did with the psp. Strip the console to its essentiallys even if it means pulling out the harddrive, putting in a wirecontroller instead and other cutbacks and have it around $450. With the Elite you had HDMI, a 100GB increase so they can say the audience is for movie watchers but whats the target audience here if the ps3 harddrive can al...

I had 2 cracked disc but none were scratched (I have a console made oct 2005 btw), the console works fine though. I remember reading that the newer drives all have rubber padding to prevent scratching so if you are so determined to see the rings of light flip when you move from horizontal to vertical then do so but please take the disc out first ;). None of us hopefully dont flip our PCs or DVD players while they are spinning disc, also DO NOT leave your console or any disc based deivce on to...

I agree that the 8 way depad makes it more difficult to play games that were designed for 4 way depads but hey it does have it advantages in Oblivion.

I believe it was the PC version of shivering isles that had the glitch the 360 version was fine. cheers

I dont get what the problem is, what they are saying is that when you buy a new PC in 2008 the only windows OS you can get is Vista, isnt that the obvious choice if you are going the windows route. I bought a new PC 2 weeks ago with vista preinstalled and it runs fine, has never locked up yet, not to mention it looks really nice at a high resolution. The search feature is also, once you use it makes it hard to go back to XP. XP support is still there and the patches are still coming you just ...

Vista and Xbox 360 are complimentary to each other....I know I have both. Use the xbox 360 to stream everything off the computer...its easy and all you need to set up is the 8 digital code the xbox 360 spits out when you first start media center on the xbox 360. Videos comsume the biggest portion of the xbox 360 harddrive, which isnt an issue if you save it to your PC and stream it.

So hey microsoft made an easy $700 off me, so now that I have the 2 im more inclined to buy a Z...

I have Vista Premium and the only issue I have is that Im running 1GB which is alright but loading up a game and you can see studders, 2 GB will be fine but im using ready boast to add 512MB of RAM. I had it for 2 weeks so far and no crashes and it runs very smooth.

I felt the graphics were really nice, you can tell the difference when they flash between Halo 2 footage and the alpha footage. I didnt notice the shotgun bug, but it was alpha footage so that should be expected, alpha is the first attempt at putting the game together.

The releable system, well I've read a bunch on launch consoles breaking, mine hasnt but i'll give that to the ps3 but "If you a raving media nut and movie madman" Well the xbox 360 has DVD, HD-DVD, Xbox live video store and add to that full streaming from a PC, with sony not having the last 2. SO i'll give sony the reliability but the newer x360 are rock solid, I know 2 people that have one and no issues there, mine is a lauch console and thats even running good.
Honestly get...

Just watched in on my 360 and the game looks so much better in motion. Anyone else notice the trip grenade?
