The '''Legendary Edition''' is the Collectors set of [[Halo 3]]. It is model of the [[MJOLNIR]] Mark VI helmet and it's about the size of a cat head. Inside hides four DVD's. The first contains the game. The second is filled with documentaries and comments. The third contains spin-off material such [[Red vs Blue]] and Spark of life. The maybe the most unexpected is the last disc, containing all of the movie sequences of all  the three games, all HD and in chronological order. A foretaste of the Halo Movie if you please, and a fitting round off of one of maybe the most cool boxes in all of gaming history. The Legendary Edition will cost about $100 dollars.
The '''''Halo 3'' Legendary Edition''' is the ultimate collector's edition of ''[[Halo 3]]''. The Legendary Edition costs $129.99 plus tax and was released on September 25th, 2007.<ref name="bnet">[http://halo.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=12467 '''Bungie.net''': ''Finish the Fight on September 25, 2007'']</ref>


== Overview ==
-We wanted to take the collectors set to a higher level. ([[Brian Jarrard]], Bungie)
The boxset is composed of two parts: the inner box (which is the actual box itself) has an image of an activated [[The Portal|Portal]], while the outer box (which is a simple cover) has a large ''3'' printed on it, with the words "Halo 3 Legendary Edition" below that. On the other side of this is a large picture of the [[John-117|Master Chief]], which can be used as a poster.
 
== Content ==
The set includes:
* The ''[[Halo 3]]'' game disc
* An interactive [[Xbox 360]] disc (included also in the [[Halo 3 Collector's Edition|Collector's Edition]]). The contents of the disc are the following:
** Includes a documentary of the "Making of Halo 3"
** [[Warthog Launch]] flash game
** Exclusive ''Halo 3'' gamer avatars and dashboard theme
** Exclusive, behind-the-scenes footage and videos, a high-definition "Making of 'Halo 3'", a documentary showcasing the [[Bungie]] team and its effort to create the most anticipated title in the industry's history, numerous high-definition featurettes documenting the creative design processes involved in developing the game; and a look at some early game concepts and their evolution through the game's development.
** Audio/Video calibration tool and Bungie-guided network setup.
* A Legendary DVD
** This contains the cutscenes from ''[[Halo: Combat Evolved]]'' and ''[[Halo 2]]'' in chronological order with optional developer commentary featuring [[Joseph Staten]], [[Martin O'Donnell|Marty O'Donnell]], and [[Jason Jones]]. Both games are played on the [[Xbox]] and played on the [[Legendary]] difficulty. Also included on the disc is a guide to the ''7 Steps to World Domination'' plan, included in a short history of Bungie, as well as a documentary chronicling [[Cortana]] voice actor [[Jen Taylor]] as she learns about the Bungie fan community. Furthermore, included was an episode of [[This Spartan Life]] which included footage made in Halo 3, and two episodes of [[Red vs Blue]], "The Call" and a special edition of Red vs Blue Episode I. Included in the special edition of Red vs Blue Episode I was a short mockumentary about the time leading up to the creation of the series. Also, on this disc is the expanded digital [[Bestiarum]] and also the surround sound test carried over from ''Halo 2''.
* A scaled-down, non-wearable replica model of a [[MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor/Mark VI|MJOLNIR Mark VI]] helmet
* A plastic stand with a slot for the two DVD cases which the helmet can mount over. The stand includes an individualized ID tag at the base
* A book containing a selection of [[Halo 3 storyboards|storyboards]] for the game's cutscenes, illustrated by [[Lee Wilson|Lee R. Wilson]].
 
== Trivia ==
* The Halo 3 Legendary edition, as well as its [[Halo: Reach]] [[Halo: Reach Legendary Edition|counterpart]], are both named after the Legendary difficulty setting.
* While Disc 1 (Collector's Edition essentials disc) featured a still version of the [[Microsoft Game Studios]] and [[Bungie]] logos, Disc 2 (Legendary Edition essentials disc) featured the [[Halo 2]] version of the logos in widescreen, as seen in [[Halo 2 Vista]].
