No "Halo" movie, but 3 versions of "Halo 3"

OK, so the Halo film is indefinitely tabled, after Fox and Universal pulled out in the face of Microsoft/WingNut Films not being willing to lower the project budget (oversimplification, but it's my post, so deal).

Representation for Peter Jackson and Fran Walsh announced (in concert with Microsoft) the project is indefinitely postponed, though they're all allegedly still keen on the film, Neill Blomkamp, and the whole Halo movie idea.

On a more positive note, GameStop has "Just Announced" that Halo 3 will be available in 3 versions. Each version has a release date of 11.01.2007, but that's likely a placeholder (though November(ish) makes sense). Note this posting is waay more official than previous GameStop release postings.

• The game

Collector's:

• $69.99 / $10 deposit

• A special hi-res collection of all cinematics from Halo 1 and Halo 2 with director commentary from the Bungie Team bonus
• Community content from Red vs. Blue, This Spartan Life and Exclusive Gamer Tiles & a Theme
• Each unit will be serialized for added individuality and collectability

"Legendary" better be in a life-size, non-sucky Spartan helmet -- not a Battlestar Galactica-like Cylon Centurion head. It does say "replica" after all. And for a hundred bucks it better be able to say, "Thank you sir, may I have another!"
