With everyone excited and anticipating the launch of Halo 3, it is clear to say XLEAGUE.TV cannot wait for the latest Bungie classic to hit the shops. Not only will gamers be able to take on the role of Master Chief once again, using the newly added "Man Cannon" and re-emergence of the "Assault Rifle" but they can also get the chance to pit their skills against the best, Live on Television, and win upwards of £10,000. Not bad eh?!

The whole world has been waiting for what seems like an eternity for this game to be unleashed, and XLEAGUE.TV is obviously no exception.
