"Halo is truly a cultural phenomenon, and the launch of Halo 3 is an important milestone for Xbox 360 and for video games as entertainment and as an art form," said Microsoft founder Bll Gates.
"Halo 3 embodies our vision for the future of entertainment, where some of the world's greatest creative minds will deliver a new generation of interactive storytelling."
Last week, Halo 3 topped Spiderman 3 to become the highest earning entertainment launch in history with more than US$170 million in single day receipts.
