yer they are not going to rip us of i bet alot of people who play halo will part there money no doubt what ever the price as it is such a highly anticipated £50 £60 even £70 but Bungie have more sense then that. and honestly £39.99 to pre order from Play.com


I can't keep going over this with you.

In England you use what for currency = the POUND

In America you use what for currency = the DOLLAR

The Pound is worth more then the dollar. That means if you pay 40 POUNDS for something in England and we where to fly over to England and buy the very same item it would cost us aproximatly 65-70 DOLLARS, do you get it?

If you think you pre-ordered H3 in america for 40 bucks you my friend just got ripped.

I know many people on the forum can't afford a 360 but you better figure something out. While I don't have a link I heard a rumor that Hillary C. might TAX video games. How much would that draw up the price of...oh say... Halo 3. Who going to be able to still afford a $60+ game if this is true and passes?



That would never pass in the smallest form. They would have to increase the taxes on movies as well plus the fact that it would be blatant discrimination against video games.

Your better off buying a 360 now because of the title wave of great games coming very soon.

If you pay 40 pounds for something in England thats like 65-70 american dollars. England has got to be the most expensive place on the planet. I went through there once on vacation and a 5 minute taxi was like 100$ (american) and I got something to drink 3.50$ (american), what a rip.


it's not the most expensive place on the planet, it's just that the money there is worth more than the money in the US. actually if i'm not mistaken the english pound holds one of, if not the highest values in the world market.


I trade Foreign currency and you are correct. Hence the most expensive place in the world, are you missing something here?

H2 sold 3.5 million copies in the first three months, as I'm sure we all heard. You better believe I'll be waiting outside of BestBuy @ Midnight again when H3 comes out.

Have you played any 360 games yet? I got my 360 last weekend and I was shocked how much its like a PC. I bought Chrome Hounds and its great. Wether people like the game or not is not my point. It's the fact that the 360 can play something with such unreal graphics for a counsole. I have never seen anything like it for a counsole, just imagine how great H3 will be ......... it gave me goose bumps.

yer i got a 360 i had to wait while they made more. everytime i play halo 2 on my 360 i always think how halo 3 will play and how the grpahics will look, looking at the trailer and you can get a fair idea. i just cannot WAIT!!! i got COD FC and GRAW but HALO 3 it just blows them away and its not even out yet.
