I have checked all website in where you can not PRE-Order Halo 3 for the Xbox360. Obviously BUNGIE has not posted the official release date but is this date accurate or just there to be there?

If you have information about this help me clear it up.

All rumours. It would make sense because 1/1/07 would be 117... like SPARTAN 117.. and there was a few others. I forget what they were, but there was one rumoured to be 7/7/07. Like the whole ilovebees 777 thing.

I super serious that its coming out in january. My guess is that it will be releaseed "when it's ready". Which will be around this time next year.

I could really go for a WWU saying something along the lines of DON'T BELIEVE ANYTHING YOU SEE ON ANOTHER SITE FOR RELEASE DATE!

Better yet, how about a big, flashing, neon banner of that. Actually, make that 4. On every page on Bnet.

I recall Halo 2... speculated to come out 12/03, then 3/04, then 4/04, then 6/04... and until E3 of 2004 or so, this date just kept on changing. I remember people in the forums being like 'OMG, BUNG13 15 N0013S! 1 H473 7hoze 1yers.'

The reason places put up dates is to spark interest. If they put up a date, people think it is coming out on that day and, therefore, reserve it. In addition, how real did you think it was going to be... they're only guidline was 'Coming in 2007.' Conveniently, January 1st is the first day of 2007.

Don’t get mad if I flame you because you cannot spell, or because my three year old has better grammar and etiquette than you.

Aside from the obvious Bungie hasnt said so, I highly doubt they would release it right after the holidays like that. Why not crunch like mad and have it out for the holidays.

I think it will be much later in the year, which makes me sad. Sooner would be better though, a spring launch would be awesome. But at the same time they want to release it when there is a dead spot for games, Halo 2 hurt all other FPS game sales.

even though 1/1/07 would be cool because of the entire spartan 117 thing I highly doubt it will come out one week after christmas when they could release it the week before and sell xbox360s and halo 3s by the hundreds at every store in your town.

If it is going to come out around christmas time it will be before it, if its not released before christmas dont expect it until about a year from now

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

You saw that flash on the screen after the Halo 2 credits were over, didn't you?

I'll try and answer it, to the best of my knowlege. No one knows exept Bungie, so any release dates you may find any where exept Bungie are just guesses. Just as I could say it's coming out in a week.

I do believe that one of those rumored release days was in March 2007. Wouldn't surpise me if so because that would be the time that might get more sales as people have money from x-mas and stuff but only time will tell.

And the date you saw is probably just there to be there.

I put on pants for this?

i will use the magic powers of my mind and predict the release date........................... imh.. wait. ahhh , yes..... getting something, it will be on the on the 1st day of the 3rd month of the 7th year at 1:15am

obviously if you put the add the 1+3+7=11 and then add in the 1+1+5=7 and put it all togther it becomes 117 which as you probably know is mc's special number.

The two best speculatory times would be Christmas 2007 (since that is when Microsoft traditionally releases all of their big "things"... and the biggest buying time of the year for consumers.

The other would be next March... I don't have the exact quote, but I recall Mr. Gates saying something about releasing all of their big games around that time because of Oblivion and GRAW... once again, I don't know the exact quote, but that was the jist of it.
