Halo: Combat Evolvedhas been slashed in half asthis weeks deal on Xbox LIVE. The game is now going for 600 MS Points and is a must get for anyHalofan that doesn’t own the original game. Especially since I think it’s the bestHalogame in the franchise.
So, why do I thinkHalo: CEshould be cheaper? Microsoft milked the hell out of the original game. After a game sells over 400,000 copies within the first nine months of release, a game is supposed to become a Platinum Hit and sell for $19.99.Halodidn’t become a Platinum Hit until years after its release. In fact,Halo 2didn’t even become a Platinum Hit until just this past year, months afterHalo 3came out.
600 MS Points ($7.50) should be the actual price instead of a one-week sale price. Oh well, there’salways piracyI suppose.
