So who is buying Halo 3 ?

Seems to be a lot of publicity around the launch at midnight in UK, with the USA already ahead of us.

Having just bought a XBOX360 to keep the kids happy I was just wondering how long before they start hassling for this game

Re: So who is buying Halo 3 ?

I bought my 7 year old an Xbox for Christmas last after having had a playstation two Christmases before......Now we can't buy a controller for it to replace his broken one as the shops don't seem to stock them anymore. Don't fancy spending that much on a 360 though on top of games, Santa's thinking more the Nintendo Wii this year I feel.

I think they're games but I'm not sure. There's a maritime version called Halo Sailor.

Yeah, I couldn't believe it: on the news this am, between the Buddhists in Burma and Foot and Mouth/Bluetongue!

Mind you, Halo 1 was pretty good (tho' 2 was rubbish!)
