So I just came back from working the Halo 3 shift and OMG does Microsoft and Bungie know how to put on a show! Not only was EVERY SINGLE media channel there. The even took over the ENTIRE 5th and 44th st block. There was TVs EVERYWHERE! The Halo 3 Pontiac was there, Master Chief was there, they had Halo soldiers riding around the street in Warthogs.... and the giveaways were crazy too. They gave away T-Shirt, Hats, Toys, Halo 3 Zunes, Halo 3 Chairs, Halo 3 action figures... anything to do with Halo 3, they gave away (except for the cars and warthogs). They took over our store windows (most of the store is glass) with HUGE Halo 3 banners and HUGE Tvs that displayed what was going on inside and the Halo 3 Commercials. Ludacris, Bobby Valentino, and Chingy were all there to play the Bungie team on Halo 3 (guess who won that one...:D ) OMG whoever didn't go tonight missed out on A LOT of craziness... I was never a HUGE Halo fan and wasn't even planning to get the game until I beat Eternal Sonata... but I ended up buyin the game and the faceplate... It was the soldiers riding warthogs that got me... It was just FUN.
Oh yea and about the LE Halo 3.... Yes its true most of the discs came scrated.. we went through 3 boxes and 9/10 were scratched or had scufs on them. I just finised reading the gamespot article on it and I'm guessing we shouldn't have sent them all back to Microsoft since they were only cosmetic... oh well.. the customer would have wanted a new one anyway... which we had to go through a bunch of boxes to do the exchanges for the customers..
Here are some pics I took with my iPhone... didn't really have time to take any more since I was actually working lol:
