Wow. Halo 3. I was looking forward to it, but now, I can't even buy it. Why? Because I have the original XBOX. Yes, I was one of the guys who didn't get a 360. I can't afford it. I could, but I would just blow every penny of my money Even if I did get one, I wouldn't have those good graphics because I don't have HDTV. I also made a blog about this same subject in Club IGN. Anyway, it's really a downer to me because Halo 3 will only be released for the 360, and not both. I wish it was both, so I wouldn't have to buy a $400 system for game.

It won't be $400 when Halo 3 releases. No one is asking you to fork out $400 + game money tomorrow, it will be in over a year with a huge price drop.

Halo 3 will not be on the original Xbox because it wouldnt handle it. Go get a job, buy a 360, I worked for a year to get an ipod and 360.

You've still got a whole year to save up. Bungie aren't going to program a whole 'nother version of their game for the people on the older system. Wouldn't you rather they focused on making Halo 3 (or their project after that) really good, rather than catering for a nearly obsolete system?

The price of the 360 will go down when the PS3 is released anyway.

Stop being a cheap ass! BTW, the graphics are still great even without an HD TV.

I've got no sympathy for you. In what kind of wacky universe do developers release brand new current-gen games for 6-year old obsolete consoles? It isn't this one for sure. I sure don't remember playing Goldeneye64 on the SNES. Also you are acting like the xbox360 is a Halo 3 arcade machine. There already plenty of good games out for it and there will be even more by the time Halo 3 ships, which you can actually play on any television. Couple all this with the fact that the 360 will have come down in price by then and you can start to see why everyone is getting sick to the back teeth of people like you, no offence.

I was gonna say this by calling him a Halo whore but i decided not to. But you are completly right. If he's gonna buy a 360 just for halo3....well, you can just go buy a PS3 since they have so many fun Japaneses RPG's where all the female characters look like whores! And all th men look like flat chested whores!

Go get a job, like The Great Pretender said, there is plenty of time to save up.

do you need a HDTV to have good graphics?

OK, yes, it is very true that I'm a dumb ass. I'm not denying that. However, isn't the whole point of a beta to increase the amount of users until you get someone dumb enough to try something you haven't anticipated.

I'm pretty sure I have a reason not to have a 360. I'm 14 and my family wouldn't get me one for christmas. I really didn't want one either because I really didn't like the games out then and they were hard to get. I've been saving up, bbut I'm getting a job next year so I can get a 360.

Make H3 for 360 and have a game with better graphics, gameplay, support. And I don't even have a 360, yet.

Surely a year (Christmas plus birthday plus SOME kind of job) is enough to save $400, plus the cost of the game? Heck, there are some GREAT affordable HDTV's out there- many gamers like the Samsung 27" CRT, I think it runs around $700. That's about $1200 in a year or more. You can average $100 a month, right?

You guys, just because you didnt get it on release doesnt mean you dont have time save some money to buy one by the time Halo 3 comes out. I bought my own with some saved money. If I can save $480 to buy a 360 and game, i think you can too.

They made the profit with the games. Microsoft has the resources to flood the market with games, getting alot of sales from them to make up both the console and the games themselves.

I'm 14. I haven't started highschool yet. I only get 31 bucks evry two weeks, and that money is for fun stuff like money for going to high school football games, extra stuff. My dad would be pissed If I spent money on that savings. And, my parents don't let me have that kinda stuff. Sometimes it pisses me off.
