G4's "the feed" of course went over the fact that microsoft said they wouldn't drop the prices of 360 for the holiday season.
But they also mentioned that Best Buy said Halo 3 will be in stores on November 14,2006. I agree this sounds ridiculous- i looked it up on their website and its listed there also.
I was kind of hoping Bungie would get rid of the rumor or at least someone would mention it- but i didnt see any posts. Sorry if this is a repost.

Here's the link to the best buy site-

And here's the link to G4 TV's The Feed-

If it comes out November 14, why did the Teaser come out this E3? And why would it say "Finish The Fight 2007"? Is bungie lying or is Best Buy lying? i think you have your answer.

Do you people have the memory of goldfish, or something?

Before hand, retailers were claiming Halo 3 was coming out this year. We announce, give you guys a year that shuts down ALL the estimated dates retailers have been giving.

Retailers change their estimated dates, and you guys fall for it all over again.

G4 sucks. They can't even steal their news from the internet correctly.

Best Buys just guessing, and they're wrong, the trailer says 2007, theres no way Bungie would release it earlier than they said they were, they'd spend time making the game better if they finished it early

Best Buy puts their release dates early so morons who believe it will put their money down to prepay for the game.

How about November 14, 2007? To me, that sounds about right.

Yes that does sound about right. Plut it says estimated arrival stime under shipping. and click that and this is some useful info

• Items are shipped as they become available.

• Information in the Shopping Cart is only an estimate; final shipping and availability information is displayed in Checkout.

obviously they really have no idea. those Best Buy Jerks (Who I happen to know and love) are just trying to get people to preorder.

it would be great though if this was the date and bungie was just joking with us about 2007.

Teasers usually come out long before the game is released. And November of next year would still be "Finish the Fight 2007" I don't see where you're coming from.

But I do believe it will be coming out sometime October/November of 2007, because that's the holiday shopping season.
