Furthermore, it alleges that despite consumer complaints, Microsoft and Bungie have failed to recall or rectify the game. "Many consumers have reported that the Halo 3 video game has caused their Xbox video game consoles to crash and remain totally inoperable after playing the Halo 3 video game", the suit asserts. The action seeks unspecified "appropriate monetary and equitable relief". Due to the size of the class - Californian purchasers of Halo 3 - this will run into millions of dollars. To put that into perspective, Microsoft reported Halo 3's first week sales reached $US300 million. |
