Add this to your Xbox 360 download queue.Remember: You must be signed in as a Gold Member to see the lower price.
As someone who is relatively new to the Halo franchise I've been wanting to play the whole trilogy from start to finish - are there any differences between a retail copy of Halo: CE and the Xbox Original Title version that is currently on sale? Thanks in advance!
Cool. Thanks! I'm still at work and tried to add this to my download queue, but always get an error message. :( FYI - I have a German account! The price is already displayed with 600 MS points and I still have 1900 MS points left. So, what's the problem? Are there any issues left?
Thanks and merry christmas to all of you guys!
1st comment! thanks for the deals Major!
Hobiologe just beat me...
That's a good deal I guess. Already have it in retail version.
I wish they put a live multiplayer version in it.
Purchased.
My first Xbox Original, hooray!
Added to the queue!
I think I will leave it. My disc copy is on a shelf still.
Why can't there be more Originals on the list? I want some titles that I find hard to get at retail. So far, Halo, San Andreas and many more are easy to find. I think this service would be great if it could catalog some of the more obscure titles.
I just hope these, "Deals of the week" don't stop. Just like Steam having a weekend deal, I think XBLM should continue this trend.
Great advertising and the gamers get more for their money on random stuff. Please MS, DON'T stop XBLM Discount Tuesdays!
Once again, I already own the deal of week.
:(
It's 600
Sorry for asking again, but this is important for every pal gamer using a vga cable: does this version work on pal consoles over vga, yes or no?
I already have Halo but I bought it anyway. I like the idea of not having to deal with a disk.
I also HAD a problem with the "not available in your region". I often use the new 'add to download queue' - it's cool. Often the link changes the region of Xbox.com to United States, so if your gamertag is from another region it will automatically not let you download certain stuff. the simple way round it is to click where it says International in green letters and change it to your home region. Done! jobs a good 'en. Now I have the excellent deal of the all time best FPS for 600 MSPs, Thanks Major for the Xmas Present!
Worst "deal" ever.
Too bad the community didn't get a chance to vote on deal options.
Hey Major, Xbox.com needs a Comments & Suggestions email. Or, is this your job? Or, a form like what Google does for their customer suggestions.
@Anon3 - No Halo CE will not operate over a VGA cable. It will work across component and HDMI.
Since I know there is going to be some MS points under the tree for me Thursday I am holding off till then to get this. Thank goodness it's a week long instead of a day.
I would actually buy this if I had some points...good thing Christmas is coming up.
I have the Xbox game. I would like an update that allows you to stay on LIVE while you play Xbox games. I would love to play the game while chatting on LIVE. I feel its counter-intuitive to block LIVE.
@Goodeye84 - you so sure? I took a peek at Santa's list, and he's got COAL down for you!
MS made a good choice on this, can't wait to pick it up myself. What a great way to introduce the Halo universe to people who own 360's but never owned the original xbox. I haven't played a single Halo game because I want to play them in sequential order, so this will be a good start. Thanks, MS! :)
lame deal again this week...m$ you continue to dissapoint.
Question to ANYONE who has purchased an Xbox Original game, can you continue to use Party Chat or even Private Chat while playing the Xbox Original Game online? (This was a thought I had a while back and forgot to ask but YaBoyJA comment reminded me.) I'm just wondering.
Hey Major. What is up with the price of Doom going up to 800 points??? It's suppose to be 400 points since march when it was released on the Arcade Hits List but when I try to download it off of Xbox live and/or the Xbox.com Online Marketplace Website it tries to charge me 800? Something's wrong here.
