Did you order Halo 3: CE? Be warned...
 

There have been reports of the Collectors Edition discs being scratched to all hell because the plastic clips that are supposed to be holding the disc in place don't function properly. Once the disc is dislodged these faulty clips turn into the enemy as the loose disc bounces around and gets gashed....


Someone posted a video yesterday (it's not very easy to tell it's scratched, but considering the widespread reports of this I'm willing to be it's pretty bad):

Also here is another site citing the issue:

grrr

Yeah IGN's fell out.
If you spent a couple hundred on that helmet, I don't see why you wouldn't just go pay $60 more for the game, instead of crying. :)

You've got your editions confused.... CE is a black tin for $70...LEGENDARY is the 130 dollar one - and there are no problems with that.

Oh.
My bad haha.
But still the helmet one has problems from what I've seen.

Yeah, legendary edition has the tin one inside of it, and has the same problem, though bungie says there is no problem at all.

I'll just shake the one I pick up, and keep shaking em till i get one that doesn't rattle. And that'll be the one I buy.

Related Video from the one posted.. lol

So, I openned mine, as did others in the store. All of ours were scratched. One guy's was so bad looking too. They gave us new ones, open, and scratches there too. Everyone ended up just going with regular edition. I think we opened 7 or 8 before people just gave up trying to find a decent Collectors Edition.

my bonus disc had minor blemishes if you looked really close, but my game disc was flawless.... I opened mine in the store.

you dont get the tin in the legendary edition... just the regular case.

And no scratches on my leg edition... but for $130 I would expect there not to be problems with it -.-

I got a 360 and H3 today :\

Graphically, this game is a lot nicer than Halo2, but isn't up to par with other AAA titles on the 360. But then, the same could be said of Halo 1, and that's the game everyone fell in love with.

It's a very fun game though. I'm loving the SP thus far.

If you haven't played Halo 1 and Halo 2, I suggest playing those before this one. They don't give any flash backs or antyhing. You're thrown in, and they expect you to know everything already.

Oh, I thought you did. In some pics, a guy showed his legendary editions with the tin inside the inside part.

I still think paying $130 is foolish. Sorry to any of you who got that version, but it's just the truth.

WOOT WOOT GOOSH!!!!! wtf is ur gamer tag?!?!?!? and btw my CE wasnt locked into place when i got it either. but the scratches were almost un-noticeable, and it was like 1230 in the morning, so i wasnt going back to best buy.
