For the “Halo” fan who wants everything

If this sounds like you, maybe you need to check out this “Ultimate Halo 3 Package” Microsoft is auctioning off on eBay. The bundle includes a “Halo” edition console signed by Bill Gates, a “Halo”-themed Zune media player signed by J Allard (a Microsoft rising star who helped launch the Xbox 360 and Zune), all three games in the series, and other “Halo”-themed accessories.

As of early afternoon Pacific time, the package had attracted more than 50 bids, with the current top bid coming in at $7,400. That’s almost enough to buy your own suit of MJOLNIR battle armor.

All proceeds will go to Boys & Girls Clubs of King County.
