| | [[Image:Halo 3.jpg|thumb|Temporary Halo 3 boxart.]]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 $130 dollars. According to Gamestop it is set for a November 2007 release. |

| == 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 ==
| | In [[Frank]]s Weekly Update, 3/16/07, it was stated that there will be only 3 disks. But do not fear, there will still be the same amount of viewing pleasure as with the original 4 disk set. Just 2 disks combined as one, and then the other disks. |
| 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 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]].
