Subject: Should Halo 3 be availble for Original Xbox?

Posted by: x Squiz x
Many people aren't planning on getting an Xbox 360, but should Halo 3 be made for Original Xbox too so all gamers can enjoy the fun?


If you haven't already got a 360 or not planning to buy one you are either:

--- A Sony fanboy (shame since Sony is going bust. A predicted £125 loss on each console that will be sold for Sony)

--- Nintendo fanboy (Nintendo Wii..... hahahaha most stupid thing i've ever heard. they shouldve called it "The Nintendo Wii of Mario and cuddly friends" or something)

Bill Gates is a greedy self obsessed tirent who lives on money.

Of course it will only be on 360. its the perfect chance to get all those people who are like "NEED HALO3 TO LIVE!!!"...so they go buy a 360.

i want it to be on xbox1. but bill-gates wouldn't allow it.
and yeah the graphics and stuff would go all -BLAMY-.

that or he develop some little harddrive just for halo3. connect it to xbox1 and you can play halo3 then. but it would cost like £160 and bill would be happy.

QUOTE ME HAPPY


You do realize that a hard drive is for storage? You would need a new processor(s) and new video card, etc. Ooops. That would make it an XBOX 360.

YES!!!!!
I have looked at over 15 gaming stores and they do NOT have a single 360.
plus I have seem the game, it WILL work with the regular X-box.

DOES ANYONE AGREE OR SHOULD I CONTINUE?
I shall poll around my high school and tell you later!!!!!!


You have seen a game not yet released? that makes alot of sense. and just because you dont have a 360 it suddenly makes you an expert and can decide if a game works on a consol or not.

Hey, for all you guys who want an 360 buy one from japan, they probably have plenty left over and i heard they sell for 50 dollars less (in US currency), all you have to do is change the language setting to english.

Holy -blam!-! are you serious? If so then I'm buying a spare 360 incase mine breaks lol

If that were true...which it probally aint.........they'd all be bought.

Some rich american guy comes along, buys all the ones left. sells on eBay for more than $300.

600% profit.

minus the whole moving somewhere else ect ect.

510% profit.


thats alot of easy money. it wouldn't sell that low.

yeah, its for the 360 and that's it. you guys have a year to get one, microsoft knows that it will have to increase the 360 stock supplies for when H3 comes out, so there will be plenty around.

  • 05.20.2006 1:25 PM PDT

☆Bliss☆
Now in three flavors.
Eh?

Xbox=NO Xbox360=YES! You will have plenty of time to save for a 360 if you want Halo 3 badly enough.

  • 05.20.2006 1:30 PM PDT

FOR THE LAST TIME -blam!- NO WAY! Man, how many threads have been posted about halo 3 bein on xbox? Its ridiculous.

wrong, xbox and xbox 360 are region sensitive (like you cant have an american halo 2 play on a japanese xbox or vice versa)

you know releasing a console and then releasing games for the both kinda defeats the perpose.....

Microsoft have been nice so far by making alot of the realeases for both the 360 and the Xbox but cmon people.....

A year from now the 360 WILL NOT BE HARD TO GET

theres currently a shortage!

Even now if you take the 5 minutes to call a reliable game store every morning (i personally bought mine from Frys) you will get a 360 within 2 weeks

NO, NO,No, no, no!!!
The Xbox could NOT handle Halo2.
Why would anyone want a rubbish Halo3 on the rubbish (compared to the xbox360) xbox.
I own an Xbox360 because I LIKE playing games.
Apart from money problems why don't you have one! *points at reader*
With games like Mass effect, Gears of war, Half-life 3...tones more whats to lose, beats the original xbox with games (shown so far ) hands down.

Short version: no. ;)

  • 05.20.2006 1:54 PM PDT

why not??? I know the graphics would suck, but thats your problem if you don't buy an xbox 360. It would save me $460

Hahaha. That guy was saying you could buy them for $50 less, meaning the $299 model would be about $250. So if this "rich American man" buys them and then sells them for more than $300 (let's say $350) he would make 510-600% profit? That's crazy, because by my calculations...he would make $100 profit on each Xbox360 (not counting shipping them from Japan) which only comes out to 40% profit. He would have to sell each one at $1750 to make your fabled 600% profit. Keep in mind, I'm using the base Xbox360 alone with nothing else.
