When Halo 3 hits shelves later this year for the Xbox360, the highly anticipated game will be available in three editions, confirmed Microsoft yesterday.
The first edition is the "Standard Edition" which simply included the standalone game. A limited quantity "Legendary Edition" will be released at the same time and will include a collectable Spartan helmet case, a Halo 3 storyboard art and two exta discs full of bonus material.
The "Limited Edition" version comes in a metal case and includes the first extras disc from the "Legendary Edition". Buyers will also enjoy a Halo fiction and art book which features a guide to the game's universe and previously unseen material.
The first disc of the "Legendary Edition" will include behind-the-scenes footage that features a "Making of Halo 3" documentary and early game concept storyboard. Also included on the disc is a special audio-video calibration tool that will let fans enjoy optimised audio and extra high definition footage.
The second disc, exclusive to the Legendary Edition includes remastered cinematic material from Halo 2 and Halo: Combat Evolved, complete with developer commentaries.
Buyers can also enjoy a featurette about a day in the life at Bungie, the game's developer, and see some exclusive content from the artists who created "Red vs. Blue" and "This Spartan Life".
