Great game and helmet is really nice [Posted on 2008-04-17]
I got this for my son and he just loves it and so do his friends. They think the helmet is "wicked" and the game is a lot of fun. Well worth the money spent.

Excellent! [Posted on 2008-06-02]
For hardcore fans, this legendary edition is the best game you can get for the 360! The extras are fantastic, and I highly recommend this over the two cheaper versions. It hasn't been a big hit at retail so you can get it for just a little over the price of retail... which is just a fantastic deal. There's a load of stuff to explore and enjoy.

not for the faint-hearted or light-headed... [Posted on 2008-08-28]
i've had this game for a few months already..., and to me, this game is probably one of the by-far most talked about game in recent 'history'. the graphics are pretty intense. story line is good too. i haven't heard of much bad opinions about this game at all. to me it's another microsoft success.

while playing the game, it gave me the feeling as if i'm in the story. sometimes to the point that i get dizzy because i'm too into it. perhaps because i do get slight motion sick if i concentrate too much into the whole environment. i had to put down the controller a couple times to rest. this whole package (legendary edition) basically includes the game, the making of the game dvd, as well as a commemorative helmet which you can't wear (although it'd be cool if you could). definitely makes a great gift; i've given away a couple already.

so lastly, like my title..., it's definitely not for the faint-hearted nor light-headed...

story a little short [Posted on 2008-08-31]
this was a pretty short halo episode, but it's a sweet online game. the legendary edition extras are well worth the extra cash

What you get [Posted on 2008-09-09]
Part three of the greatest video game in human history...check.
Many additions without subtraction in the ongoing process of best game design ever...check.

The thing is, if you can't describe by the meter where the cave people in the game are, you probably wouldn't pick this up. If you can, you probably already have it.
But if you're somehow on the fence, I'll take a shot at describing what the Legendary Edition provides.

1. The Helmet - Wow. Appx. 9 inches of Master Chief goodness. A nice display size without being intrusive. It might seem that an all-plastic Spartan head would be lame and fake looking. But it ain't. My only issue is that it's so close to being actual size, why not make it actual size ?

2. DVD extras - Worth the price of admission alone: The three main guys behind the primary aspects of the game commenting the viewer through every cut scene from Halo 1 & 2. As a (rabid) fan, I couldn't think of a more interesting investment of a couple of hours. It was like candy to hear Jones, Staten and O'Donnell elaborate on the foibles of production, failed concepts and what might have been in the Halo universe. And far from a self-congratulatory attempt at promotion, the entire dialogue is a hilariously self-deprecating voyage of perfectionists pointing out the plot holes and oversights of both the cut-scenes and series itself.

3. DVD extras - Torn straight from the pages of the Halo Bible are (very scientific looking) descriptions of the various Halo species, including population and interstellar capability ratings. Only a nerd of colossal proportions would find this cool, and this one did. Throw in a primitive, yet satisfyingly challenging game of Warthog physics, some artistic rendering aspects and you've got the basic blueprint.

No buyer's remorse here.
