All if not most of the Bungie team.
BTW they also did this for alot of 360's but the only celeberties I know of are Rusell Crowe and Peter Jackson.

That thing is gonna be worth a crapload of money some day.....hell, its worth a crapload now just to get all those signatures on such a pristinely painted 360!!!

[Spartan]

I'm going to win that auction! Then I'm going to wake up to my regular 360! :p

That thing is really nice, and it is a great cause!

[KAPPZ IS BACK]

I'm sorry but if I owned that. Everytime I would look at it. It would just remind me of all the people who fucked Halo 2 up.

[PerpetualHeaven]

well I guess someone wants to pay approx $16,000US for the console haha.

[macleem gs]

I think the autographs decreased the value.
It's still looks good to me.

[Cobra 69 Venom]

Biddings at AU$24,700.

Its awesome that people are getting behind Make A Wish, it is a awesome charity organization in Australia. I'm not sure if it is in other countries??

[PerpetualHeaven]

The entire bungie team autograph decreased the value? Okay, so Barry Bonds signing his baseball that went past Hank Aarons (assuming he does) suddenly is decreased in value. Nuh-uh. Autographs greatly greatly greatly greatly greatly increased the value. No one would buy the Halo 3 360 for 24,700 AU if there weren't any autographs. Without autographs it would have went what.. like 2000 US max.

[deathbypig37x]

So you're saying that if the entire crew of Star Wars signed a really good DVD player with cool paint on it; it would decrease the value?
That's what it is like in comparison. The guys are awesome developers, don't diss them.
If you mean that it decreased the value because it covered up some of the art, I could see wht you're saying...

[rashesthippo]

if you read the details you will see that it is a pal format Xbox so its no good for north America:mad:

[Maka]

Thats just mean sin palys PAL games...

It would still work here, just not with our NTSC games, youd have to import them from the UK..

Wow dude at least go to the Ebay Page before you assume.
"n 01-May-07 at 10:03:11 AEST, seller added the following information:NOTE: We will ship either a PAL or NTSC console to the winner depending on their country requirements. Shipping is free worldwide.
Plus a copy of Crackdown which provides access to the Halo 3 Multiplayer Beta*
*Broadband internet and Xbox LIVE gold membership are required to access the Halo 3 Multiplayer Beta.
."

You would notice that if you followed your own advice and read the details.

[Cpt.Razkit]

I would soo bid for this if i even had enough money for that.... but why spend it on that?

[excessum01]

Because it is an insanely awesome Xbox and it's for the Make A Wish Foundation...

LOLzz I'll laugh so hard when that xbox breaks and the owner calls xbox live to get it fixed and they say that the autographs void his warrenty.

[evo@24psi]

[The 360 Dragon]

[IT5]

[R Rated Love]

Its awesome that people are getting behind Make A Wish, it is a awesome charity organization in Australia. I'm not sure if it is in other countries??

Popular charity in the United States, as well.

[mimik17]

[Tussell]

What a waste of fucking money.:eek:
Dude, they think they're fuckin' celebrities or something.

Who are you to decide what's worth it or not? And yes, the bungie team are celebrities in the gaming world. They're the most well-known game designers. They did make Halo 1 and 2 and those 2 games are probably the biggest games the gaming world has seen since the original mario.
