I picked up Halo 3 Legendary a couple of weeks ago for $50 (yea, helmet and all lol, don't ask why I just got my 360 and I'm a sucker for collector edition stuff). Anyways I've played absolutely 0 Halo games in the past.

My question is will story mode be...somewhat understandable without prior knowledge of Halo and Halo 2? I tried reading up on the synopsis for Halo and Halo 2 and they seemed generic. First game they had to blow up a ship or something? Second game no clue. Third game...they want to end the fight?

Thanks!

EDIT: Sorry by 'generic' I meant the summaries were, not the Halo story. I should have used the word vague.

Knowledge is indeed power!

Geometry Wars for a cool $10... A 1600 points card costs $20, last I checked Geometry Wars was 400 points, meaning it is 1/4th of 1600 points meaning $5. Something doesn't add up.

About to discuss stuff about 4th disc so..

SPOILER ALERT!, sort of...

Alright so I was in the auction house getting the seeds to get to 99 and I got outbidded and lost the auction for the seed. Does the seed come back or is it gone forever because I lost it in the auction?

Thanks, I just don't want to ravage through all the maps to find out I'm stuck at 98 seeds, lol.

Lost Odyssey or Gears... Hard to get into Halo 3 since I never played the past games.

Yes Mad World price has dropped by 50% in space of a couple of weeks. What went wrong as games dont normally drop price that quickly?

Check on out Game.co.uk ! I'd put a link but sadly it will not allow me to.

In Canada (Toronto) the game dropped from the ridiculous price of $59.99 (No Wii game should ever be more than $49.99...) to $39.99. Perhaps sales haven't been what they hoped for...

The jump from Gears 1 to Gears 2 is incredibly small compared to the jump from Resistance 1 to Resistance 2. Resistance went from AA --> AAA Gears went from AAA --> AAA I've spent over 150 hours on Resistance's multiplayer aspects, even platinum'd the game. Most fun I've ever had online on a console to be honest. Both games are superb. Must haves for PS3/360 Owners.

I just turned on my 360 just now and was prompted for an update, anyone have any idea what it's for?

Note: I was on Live yesterday so please don't post saying 'oh when was the last time you were on Live' lol.

Hey, this is my first post on the forums, but i was wondering what the Jasper chip is and if my xbox has it in it. I bought the Pro package like 3 weeks ago, and it came with the kung fu panda, and lego indy game haha!, but i was wondering if it's in my box, and what are the best way/s to prevert RROD.... oh yeah, what is RROD...im a noob:oops:

Treeafodo1
To Check for Jasper: 1) Check Manufactuer Date (If the PRO is in the latter half of 2008 then you have a good chance of a Jasper). 2) Check the Wattage on the Console and Power Brick (If it reads 12.1 A you have yourself a Jasper). The Brick is most important because some consoles say a certain voltage on it (Like my Elite says 16.5 A) while the Birck says another (My Elite says 14.2 A). RROD: Three Red Rings of Death Basically General Hardware failure. When you get it, shut off your 360 and wait a while then try to turn it back on, if it's still there call Microsoft and you'll have to send it back to get a refurbished one. Provided you're still under the 3 year warranty which I suspect you are.
