Thats kinda hard to do since I don't know the prices for things down there. If I go based on what it would cost in america then convert the cost to AUD, it comes out to $639.12. That is based on the game being 60, the console being 300, for the one with a 60GB HDD, live being 50. The US price for all that would be $410 before taxes and whatnot.

Yeah I'm from Aus, grab a premium console or if you want an Elite, my Elite has only about 70-something GB left.

Halo 3's lag is more than Halo 2's due to the more physics objects so you want Internet about 1.5mbps or more <may or may not be a prob depending how rural you live>.

Have your download cap ready to download the 1GB of maps <like I said, could or could not be a prob depending on ISP>.

Try to get the Halo Wars Limited Edition or at least a mythic map pack code that works, to me Halo 3 would feel incomplete without Sandbox, at least you have Foundry.

With controls, Halo 3 is hardly different, may take a little while to get used to the RB / X change but shouldnt affect you for too long and in the end it feels better. Just let me know if you need help via Personal Messages.
