Like most, the limited edition is scratched up. I received two copies and all 4 disks were VERY scratched up. I'm not a happy camper.

Definitely not good to buy this edition of Halo 3. Ours was scratched. I was told to call Microsoft. Turnaround time they said was a week, but when I called back on another question for them, they told me that it would take about 10 business days. Basically two weeks. I called Amazon and just processed it for a return. I went to my local Walmart and we opened every one of these editions. They were all scratched. Not one was intact. We opted for the Halo 3 Standard which is good enough.
Shame on Microsoft for sending out such a poorly designed case with their "Limited Edition".

Scratched Discs. Someone should be flogged

The others reviews about scratched disks are right on the money. I had no idea, and hadn't read any reviews before I bought. Do NOT buy the Limited Edition version, unless they repackage it. Shameful that they put out such a poor product design for such a huge release. What a fiasco. Both my discs were rolling around inside and all scratched up. I hope Best Buy doesn't give me a problem with the return. I'm sure the game itself is 5 star. This edition of it is 1 star.

BeWare Avoid the Limited Eddition Scratched Discs!!!

As noted by other reviewers, the game box was poorly designed so that both DVDs arrived loose and badly scratched. This reflects very poorly on Microsoft.

Badly scratched limited edition does not even play....brought it back to Wal-Mart...every limited edition that they have is badly scratched.....heard that Microsoft know about this and they did nothing...just delivered a damaged game to the trusting public. When are we going to hold Mocrosoft accountable.

Triple Beware!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bought three Limited Editions from Wal-Mart...Had to return to exchange
for basic editions.

I have enjoyed Halo, Halo 2, and Halo 3 beta.
I will continue to play online with Halo 3, and cooperative campaign online.

As much as I like Halo 3, I wonder why close combat situations are not as
good as Halo 2. I do not get the same emotional visceral effect when I
melee an opponent then tea-bag them. Everything in Halo 3 is better than Halo 2 except close combat situations.

I am still unable to get out of the first level of campaign, because the play stops...have tried several adjustments...no good.

On line cooperative play has so much lag it is unplayable.

I think buyers should have been made aware

I bought this for my son, the first one was so scratch. Of course Amazon was amazing and I returned it and he had the new one before they even received the old one. However, the second was scratched worse, and my son asked me just to take him to have it buffed. Come to find out, there were thousands of games with this problem and now we have to deal with microsoft themselves. A head up would have been nice.

Limited Edition is Scratched, rumor is conformed

If you're just thinking of buying Halo 3, please dont consider the Limited Edition. Most of the ones that are bought by me and friends are scratched. Due to the bad design of the box it destroys the CDs inside. If you have the time to purchase and send back to get a replacment, be my guest. Buy either get the Normal, or the Legendary (The one I got after) is great. I like the packing, and the CD case inside is the same as the normal one.

Halo 3 is the best game there is. Have fun and see you in the battle field.
