Microsoft has announced that Bungie's Halo: Combat Evolved will be discounted by 50% for Xbox Live Gold members beginning tomorrow.

Normally priced at 1200 Points ($15), the downloadable version of the classic shooter will be available for 600 Points ($7.50), according to Microsoft's Larry "Major Nelson" Hyrb.

The deal will run through next week, giving you plenty of time to realize your old Xbox disc is MIA.
