Posted under Microsoft, Xbox 360, Halo 3, free stuff

The Xbox 360 is not known for its first-party support, yet the undeniable, record-breaking sales of Halo 3 have pushed console sales to outsell both the PS3 and Wii for the months of September and October.  At $30 million in development costs, Microsoft Corporation found return profit, multiplied ten-fold in the first week alone.  Sales were more than a once-off phenomenon, as the game has managed to consistently sell more than all the console versions of the hit game, Guitar Hero III, every week since release.

Now, it seems they're giving it away, at least to the poor original Xbox owners who are still living in the last generation.  This promotion is more than a replacement for your scratched LE discs; this is the full deal.

Once again this is a promotion for original Xbox owners with an Xbox LIVE account.  To register, go to the registration page and follow the instructions outlined below.

Current paid Xbox LIVE members on the original Xbox console (not Xbox 360), here's how to get your Halo 3 game:

   1. Buy an Xbox 360 console between November 21 and December 21, 2007.
   2. Convert your current paid Xbox LIVE account to an Xbox LIVE Gold subscription.
   3. Register here between November 21 and December 21, 2007 with promotional code XBX7777, with your new console serial number, and a valid mailing address.
   4. Look for your copy of Halo 3 in your mailbox!
Additional step #5. Wait. the game should arrive by January 18, 2008.

NOTE: The registration page has been down frequently since details of this promotion have been introduced to the internet.  It took me a few visits to find a time that the site was up.  It has since gone down again.  Good luck!  Also, why did I even register!?  I didn't have a paying LIVE account for the original Xbox, nor do I have a Gold account.  Save yourself some time and read the promotion terms of use.

Once again people who pay more early on get screwed over. :rolleyes: It happens everywhere. Car insurance renewals are often more than what new customers pay. New internet subscribers get it cheap for 6 months then pay the normal rate for the rest of their contract.

Bah, humbug! I want freebies!
