Not that this is all that important, but as Halo fans, do you think that it would be cool if Halo 3 was released on New years day of next here. Just look at the date: 1/1/07

Do none of you have a sense of humour?
We do, this just isn't funny.

People have said either 1/1/07 or 7/7/07

I am...whimsical today.

I think its already been asked, but without the focus on the 117 bit :)
It would be cool, both for the 117 and for the really early release. I think its unlikely tho :(

A really early release date.
Can't we all just wait 'till Bungie announces it?

It won't be 1/1/07. It wouldn't make buisness sense to release it right after Christmas. Look for it right before a big holiday or when PS 3 comes out.

My guess is November 7, 2007. (H1 and H2 were released on November 7)

Yes, the only reason 1/1/07 comes up is because folks are very very hopeful. It is very very sweet... a bit sad, but sweet. I would still expect a late October or Nov. date. The holidays and all. 7/7/07 is a possibilty, but it is not like the majority of folks know that Bungie is obsessed with 7s.

Yes, it would be nice (only of course if the game was ready).

Yeah, it will most likely come out in the fall.

7/7/07 would be extremely cool seeing as Bungie is so obsessed with 7's. I mean, that date just calls to Bungie too, it's perfect... Except for being during summer. Big games never release during summer...

I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying.

Bill gates pretty much said it would be right after PS3 and for H3 to still b released next year but right after PS3 it will have to be Jan.

It can't be 1/1/07 or 7/7/07. They are a (respectivally) Monday and Saturday. Games come out on Tuesday. Sometimes Friday. But never Monday Or Saturday.

Don't trust me?

Yes, and this has been retracted by MS. It was retracted days after he said it. They came as close to saying "Bill has no idea what he is talking about" without actually saying "Bill is an idiot."

I think it will be November 7th , You know why. 11/7. November is the 11th month and the 7th day would be 117 , so I think that will please the guy who thinks it will come out then, and the people who think everything has to do with 117. See ya guys

11/15/01 - H1
11/9/04 - H2
11/??/07 - H3

All Three Years apart from each other and in November. (Just right for the Christmas rush) It's my guess and in my opinion the most made sense.

  • 06.03.2006 12:15 PM PDT

I'm blue da ba di da ba dai!

Its going to come out when it can im not saying your wrong but it doesnt have to come out just cause of the numbers.

First off, this is not the real release date but it would seem like a good bet, bungie has been doing a type of pattern, the first year microsoft announces halo and xbox 2000 e3 if i remember correctly, then 2001 on the christmas season we get xbox and halo. 2 years later, we see halo 2 for the first time, and it is set to be released in november, year later of novemder 2004 we get halo 2, now 2 years later at e3 o6, we take a first look at halo 3, and if it goes on like a pattern it will probably be released of 2007 november, so it like 2 years after e3 2001 we get look at halo 2, 1 more year and we get halo 2, now 2 years after halo 2 at e3 06 we get a look at halo 3, now add one year on to that, and put that year with the month of november, so my best bet, halo 3 might be released in november in 2007

i have 2 rough dates that i figure we will see halo 3.

First and formost my biggest hunch is that we will see halo 3 in the april to late june timeframe of 2007... namely because this is the projected release date for The halo movie (if this had changed and i dont know it my bad and scratch that thought) it would provide HUGE cross promotional oppertunities for microsoft.

Secondly i would figure it would relase BEFORE the release of GTA 4 mainly because this then makes X360 the only console you can own both HALO and GTA4 comming up for christmas '07. but it would have to be around sept so you dont have the 2 games clumped together and limiting people who may only want/can afford 1 game purchase at that time of the year due to saving for christmas

so to reiterate halo 3 will be seen april-late june 07 or sept of '07
