Halo 3 Street Date Broken In Norway
September 14th, 2007 by Erich Jurgens in Business, News, Xbox360
Apparently, some Norwegian store called Expert doesn’t understand that it’s better to not tick off big companies like for example, say, Microsoft. How would one go about getting on Microsoft’s bad side? I’m sure breaking Halo 3’s street date twice would be an excellent start. One of the alleged purchasers, Choi Wang, reported this after buying his copy, and took the above picture as proof. For the most part this picture appears to be real. However, I find it odd that a Norwegian copy of Halo 3 would be in English. Then again, Norway isn’t my area of expertise. You can click on the picture for a larger image.

I think it’s real, others say no. I say yes, i see the xbox live sticker and other things the store(display case) doesnt have. Plus he has the game running in the background.

It’s real. The games in Norway, Sweden and Denmark are all in english (with the exception of the games that are from those countries).
