Halo 3 was released Tuesday.  Calling me a fan of this game is a minor understatement.  The first version was the reason I purchased an xbox.  I also attended the midnight release of the second version, and the third version was the only reason I really wanted a xbox 360.  I most enjoy the online playing.  Will, Jamaal, and I can play for ungodly hours straight.  I also want to thank Tami for putting up with me during the first week of the release.  Unfortunately, the first night I tried to play the game there were too many people on and the servers weren’t functioning correctly.  I read somewhere that the first 24 hours after the release Microsoft made 170 million.
