Game held at replicators awaiting the green light?
We’ve received news today from an industry insider who claims
that Halo 3 is finished and sitting at the mastering plant, awaiting
the word to go.
According to the source, the final artwork has been finished for disc,
booklets and box art.
Our source has stated that one of Europe’s largest CD
replicators is on standby, they’ve signed NDAs and are
awaiting the green light from Bungie. According to our source the CD
replicators have been given an approximate date to ensure that their
pressing schedule is clear for the amount of units they’ll
need to produce.
Responding to the question of why haven’t Microsoft and
Bungie given it the green light for launch, our source is certain that
the hold is a strategic move on Microsoft’s part. Although
Halo 3 is ready, the delay is to time the launch for “maximum
impact”
We’ve currently received few details regarding Halo 3, so it
makes sense that Bungie will build up the hype surrounding the game
before the launch is revealed.
While this is unconfirmed at going to press, this industry deep-throat
was confident in the information presented to us.
