Halo 3 Legendary Edition

Hey guys, just wondering, how many of you are getting Legendary Edition? $100 bucks is a pretty good deal, but I don't know if I need four discs of extra content. I've got Collector's Edition reserved, but that helmet looks pretty sick so I might upgrade when I pick up Crackdown and NBA Street on Tuesday.

While I've yet to come up with the $25 to reserve the LE, no thanks to Crackdown :lol:. I do plan to get it, maybe tomorrow I'll be able to acquire the money for it. I love getting special editions of games, I love watching all the extra content.

Well, I personally think paying an extra 40-60 bucks just to watch some extra content is a waste. I could buy a whole other game with that. So, I never get the special editions. Like GoW, I could've gotten the special edition of that, but I thougt it was a waste of money... :ph43r:

It was a rip, Sinister. Gears had a cool tin, but nothing you HAVE to have. And the extra content, most of it turned up on the Marketplace for free about three weeks later.
When I see the Halo helmet all I think is, "Another thing to collect dust." I'm cool with just the game.

"Another thing to collect dust." Couldn't have said it better myself. Man, I don't even know if I can get Crackdown today...It sucks being poor. Yea, I'm allowed to feel sorry for myself. :P

How is the LE a waste? It has more content than the collectors, plus it comes with the helmet and stand. I think it justifies the $100 price tag. But that's why they're offering three different SKU's. I always try to buy special editions, I'm interested in how games are made, since I'll be going into game design myself someday. I like the LE cause it comes with one disc that has nothing but all of the cutscenes from the previous games, in HD of course. That's one of the 2 extra discs it comes with, the other is more "Making Of" and docu-mentaries. Which are things a love watching.

EDIT: These forums have some major profanity filters. I can't even put do****entary... Without it blocking c u m, :lol:.

Just because you dont need/want/use it, does not mean it's not worth the money. Just means you don't want it.

Thing's like the [/color]Bose earphones are not worth the money. $180 for the same quality earphones I could get for at least half that price, makes it not worth the money. Or paying more for a Sony television, when you can get the same quality Samsung (or some other brand) for less. Makes them not worth the money.

You see my point?

I think kamikaze was just stating his opinion but wasn't really being serious. I don't think he meant to offend anybody by it.

I know he meant no harm, and he didn't. Just needs to be careful how he words his posts, as does everyone. Saying something is not worth the money, means you shouldn't be paying that much for it, like I explained in my last post. Whereas saying "I don't need or want to spend $100 when it offers nothing that I want" gets the point across, without saying it's overpriced or of poor quality.

Breathe, Zypher. I realizing being a big fan it's easy to be emotional about it, but really, anything any of us say of how we see a product is our opinion.

Like if I said the Legendary is a rip off, that's that. It's where my view lies. Same as yours would be that it's a cool deal for people into the background stuff.
It's like how you see a lot of people having to tack on IMO or "to me" even though it's like saying ATM machine. It's redundant.

So I'd back that Kamikaze was fine how he said it and you're right to say it's a good deal to you. Let the guy express his opinion on the product.
And I promise you, even if we all hated the Legendary collector's, it will sell just fine.

But for the record, I was using an example, I don't think it's a rip off. So no need to bite my head off. :)

I knew what Kamikaze was meaning. And I wasn't saying the LE isn't going to sell fine, or anything of the sort. I was only trying to clarify that the LE is worth the money, but if you don't want to get it, then thats perfectly fine. Kamikaze just needs to learn how to word his posts so people don't take any offense, which is something any forum member needs to learn. Thats all I was trying to do :).

But remember, Zypher, forums are topics. the posts being peoples opinions and views on the said thread. Kamikaze didnt say "Hey, ugly retard, you're an idiot to buy this junk!"
He merely said it was a waste of money. He said what he though of the topic, he wasn't attacking an innocent person. Now, if the product being called out as a waste of money offends, offends to the point it's suggested to not mention it, THAT would be wrong.
And it'd be a pretty boring forum if the threads were nothing but everyone praising and feeling the exact same about everything.

Microsoft has finally revealed the the official price of the Halo 3 Legendary Edition. It's $130! Thats thirty more than what everyone estimated, but it's still worth it to me.

Believe it or not, the LE has been in the works for over 2 years. It's not just something they threw together at the least moment. I've also posted the official picture of it below.

I was gonna get it for sure for $100 but I'll probably get it for $130 anyway it just makes my decision a little harder.

A helmet? I think the price was even raised... But I sorta agree with Kamikaze. I don't believe its a waste of money, but it is of questionable nature. A helmet?
