why would you want to spend $150 on one game? when you can get the same thing for $80 or even $70

personally i pre-ordered the normal edition because theres no need for the other ones

although im considering on getting the collectors addition

well i`d say if you want the collectors edition to get the Limited edition so you can get the bonus disk and all

like really in the legendary all your paying for is that helmet and you cant even wear it so yeah

and its got like 1 extra disk and a couple exclusive themes

It's actually 130 not 150 :-p

And I know it's a bit much, especially for one game and the extras, but I've followed the Halo series really closely and I'm a huge fan so I don't mind paying this much, and that's all the Legendary edition is for, the big fans of the game, the casual players will just pick up the regular edition.

Alot will be available, maybe not from the start, but they will all be seen in shelves for awhile. Unless they do below expectations in sales.

just wait a few months----there will be some leftover sitting on store shelves. there are always limited editions of games sitting on store shelves. I doubt this will be any different.

The Legendary edition isn't THAT expensive. I have the money to splash out and for my favourite franchise, why not? It's the first time, excuse me, second time (recently Pre-Ordered the large BioShock box), I've payed this much for a game. It's a great adition for collector's like me and it will be very rare.

The last few days, the Legendary edition has disappeared from all the online retailers I was browsing. Case and point.

As for being available at retail - it's not going to happen easily. Shops don't have the shelving space for such large items and can only stock small amounts for short periods of time.

I only pre-ordered my Legendary box about a week ago and I'm glad/lucky that I did as it now seems that you can't get hold of them.

It's Halo 3,of course it's not going to be rare lol

Gamespot had a news article a week ago saying that it's selling out,but that's probs a lie to make people buy it.

I mean they said the halo 2 collectors edition was limited to stock,but you could buy that everywhere.

I live in the UK and I was only able to find one place that was doing pre-orders for the Legendary Edition. I pre-ordered mine in May.

The listing for the Legendary Edition now has a status of 'out of stock' and if you search for it on the site you don't get any results.

I phoned them to find out what was going on and they said I was stillgetting one but they'd removed it from the site because they'd sold what they had and they won't be getting any more.

I'm glad I pre-ordered when I did.

Some people don't see the point in buying the Legendary Edition. That's their opinion. I wanted it as soon as I seen it. Money isn't much of an issue for me.
