Halo Mimobots

by Evan Shamoon, posted Nov 19th 2007 at 7:45PM

For those among us with a severe case of Halo 3-itis (which seems to be about seven trillion and counting), the new limited-edition Halo Mimobots ($55-$115) make a great stocking stuffer. These USB Flash drives come in sizes ranging from 1-gigabyte (GB) – 4-gigabytes (GB), and you have your choice of either Master Chief (pictured), or blue or red Spartans. They come preloaded with a bunch of Halo content, including the mimobot soundByte™ application (featuring Halo sound effects), artwork, excerpts from the upcoming Halo novel, and a special episode of 'This Spartan Life.' Uber-fans can even stick them into the front USB ports of their limited-ish edition Halo 3 Xbox 360 to impress -- uh, themselves? And maybe their friends. But not their girlfriend. Really.
