Back in August of last ear I has faced with the problem of witch ersion of Halo 3 to pre-order. I decide on the standard edition because as cool as the helmet would be I could not justify the $150. Also the Dell online store had a good deal on a preorder with an Xbox 360 Elite (I did not as of yet have a 360 and I worked for Dell back then so I also got 15% off). I was convinced I was not that geeky as I had resited the lure of the real cool helmet. The today I was walking throught bestbuy and what did I find but the Halo 3 legendary edtion for $60. 60 bucks is still too much to get a cool trinket I could resits that easy. SO WHY IS IT SITTING ON MY DESK NOW? Oh well, I can sell my other copy for atleast $15 so it only really cost me $45 right? ---

Before our wedding, I kept the wedding rings in the Master Chief head for safekeeping. I suggested that we have a page boy carry it up the aisle on a cushion for the ceremony but the Missus refused. ☹ ---

The…uh…helmet…it kinda fits on a cat’s head. Just…throwing that out there. By the way, I won mine for free in an online tournament. ---

Yeah, I saw the price drop on that the last time I was at Gamestop. I am so glad I just went with the regular copy. I actually had the Legendary Edition pre-ordered for a few months before the game dropped. I had a change of heart when I went to go pick it up and just got the regular edition. I’m glad I did but I would still love to have the Master Chief helmet sitting here in my office. ---

[/QUOTE] Well, you need a cat without a fat head. Either that or you forgot to take a rubber mallet to the cat first. Gotta break them in, ya know.
