Halo 3: September 25

I know there' s a plethora of Halo 3 threads going right now, but this seems worthy of its own -- the official release date for the U.S. is September 25th, and for Europe, September 26th. ...sayeth Bungie.

What, Europe has a delayed release again!

Sorry, I just saw that Agent Ghost scooped this in the Beta article thread.

Anyway, not so bad of a delay, but when it' s that slight I wonder what the purpose of it is at all? Maybe they are just accounting for the time zone differential.

September - December is going to be damn crazy.

If Halo wasn' t big enough, in October GTA IV hits and the last GTA game sold 5M worldwide in a single month.

Yeah,but Halo3 has pre-orders up to 4 millions already Majik.


Anyway all the retailstores leaked out september releasedate before,guess they were right :)

Now its gonna be intresting to see what title will hit in November and December

Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

I find it a little hard to believe that they' ll actually get GTA4 out the door in the next 5 months. Usually by this stage we' ve seen more than a simple teaser trailer. It may be because they' re working super hard on it and simply don' t want to give anything away, or they may not have much work done at all. This is not to say that I don' t want it to be released. If they can actually make that deadline it' ll be awesome. But for a blockbuster like GTA4 I' m not holding my breath.

Man, September-December = Cuh-rah-ay-zeeh.

What I believe is slated for release between those times on the 360 are:

Blue Dragon
Mass Effect
Lost Odyssey
Halo 3
Assassins Creed (?)
GTA IV
DMC4 (?)
Virtua Fighter 5 (probably before then)

Among others, that I have drawn a blank towards, I like the fact that Halo nestles
itself nicely on Semptember the 26th, between Blue Dragon and probably Mass
Effect.

What a lovely year to be a gamer. Erm, aren' t there supposed to be some kind of
announcements in May, it' s the time E3 is supposed to take place, so where are all
the new announcements?

There are two rules to success:

1. Never tell all you know.

***ing eh! It' s going to be madness! Don' t forget Bioshock and UT III.

and Eternal Sonata, plus MoH Airborne is out August 31st.

Looks like we' ll all have lots of things to ask Santa for.

Let' s all meet up at a shipping-dock in Hong-Kong and shipjack the game distributors, because that' s more money than I really care to worry about.

What, Europe has a delayed release again!

Are you complaining about a 1 day delay for EU? lol thats not bad compared to EU usual delays

Europe, finish the fight, a day before North America finishes Halo Wars.

Such a Great solid Line-up for 360 for sure..

Whats your Predictions on the Halo 3 Reviews?

I Predict:

Kikizo: 9.0

IGN: 8.8

1up: 9.1

Currently playing:
Korg DS 10 (ds) /  Metal Slug 7 (ds)
Rhythm Heaven (ds) /  Fire Emblem (ds)
Super Stardust HD (psn) /  Virtua Fighter 5 (360)
FSX (P

Kikizo: 9.0

IGN: 8.8

1up: 9.1

I predict kikizo 9.0

1 up 9.7

IGN 2.1

IGN couldn' t tell the difference between a 2 & a 9 anyway.

I' m betting since it' s the last it' s gonna get an average of 9.3-9.5, and then a year later there' ll be some pessimistic idiot who gives it a 5 because those ideas were " so last year" .

9.6' s

I can almost gaurantee I' ll like it more than H2, we' ll see about H1 though.
