Halo: Combat Evolved!  Normally priced at 1200 Microsoft Points, this Xbox classic will be marked down 50% or 600 Microsoft Points starting today.  The offer is available to all gold members in all Xbox Live regions and will last for one week.

This is a great way to finish off the year.  Now I know this isn’t exactly new content but it definitely has that nostalgia factor.  I can still recall the first time I saw the game demoed at Macworld and was in complete awe.  Then Microsoft acquired Bungie and basically stole Halo from the Mac community but the end results speak for themselves.  Halo: Combat Evolved was a staple FPS for consoles and no one can argue that.  Just make sure you take advantage of this great deal before it is gone.
