*UPDATE* Official images – and info – of Halo 3 UK packaging
*UPDATE* We’ve received the details on each of the three different Halo 3 packages that will go on retail. Depending on how much you want to prove your leet Halo fanship, to be the only kid in the block with a replica Mjolnir helmet, or simply have an extra wad of cash to burn, find out what you get from each package after the jump. But first, this news post from where we left off:
Bungie is still mum about the release of upcoming epic video game Halo 3 even though Microsoft‘s Shane Kim has already “suggested” that a September release is mostly appropriate. According to the corporate VP of Microsoft Game Studios, they want the shooter to come out before Rockstar’s GTA IV (360, PS3) does.
Anyway, while we’re still waiting for the official word from Bungie, we managed to get official images of the game’s packaging in UK. As you can see, the regular edition of Halo 3 will have two different casings that fit well like Master Chief’s helmet. Anyway, there’s also the Legendary Edition that comes with a replica of a Spartan Mjolnir Mark IV helmet.
The Halo 3 regular edition will be priced at US$ 59.99 while the Legendary one will cost US$ 99.99. There’s also another packaging for the Limited Edition that will include bonus discs with additional Halo-related content.
