Subject: Um I thought this was not gunna be a full price game?

I'm not gonna dig though vids, but i remember something just after it was announced saying that bungie was not thinking on this as a full game, but and expatiation ((SP?)). I remember them saying this was more a labor of love for the fans. Anyways I'm just asking because, IF it's not $60, than I'm gonna hold off on the pre-order till game stop gets there stuff right. If it is, Oh well, it's worth $60 and more.

Just the whole list you get, is mind blowing.

In fact I myself am hoping for a Legendary Edition, with an ODST Helmet like Halo 3. Yes, I have the MC helmet and I would not mind shelling out the $100.00 for the Game and Helmet.

Spoon.

-What do you know about the price?
-Would you pay for an ODST Helmet?

$100 will get you a game and a controller.

Bungie said that the game wouldn't be as close to a full priced retail game, although no price has been announced so the shops will put a estimated price for a while then drop it when they know the full price.

I think its because of all the map packs that you get with it because Legendary is still like 600 to 800 points and mythic is 800 points.

There is a special addition version with a controller that costs $100.00 but it would be cool if you could get an ODST helmet.

For 100 you get game and controller.

Didn't I get this controller when I got the Halo 3 Xbox. (( Yes ,I was on of the people that waited out Red Ring, than when at E3, Oh just $50 more for a Halo xbox. . . Sweet.)) Though I can't tell for the pick I looked up. It look's like it might have art on it.

Well you guy in the USA are lucky, it loks like it will be £37.97 here in the UK. I just pre-ordered it.

So works out at $62.52 (And I can guess that the price will go up before the release!, it always does as we are always ripped off)

That's the price of almost all new Xbox 360 and PS3 games.

I'm not going to attack or defend pricing here, because it'll look like sycophancy on the one hand or be given more attention than it deserves on the other...

That said, the content that seems to be included with the disc seems pretty meaty to me. Obviously people will need to make up their own minds on whether the value is in line with the cost.

Well worth it. . . Just thought I would ask about it, because bungie did say something. I'm not gonna hold them to it, because form the Hoard . . .er FireFight , to the what 6 hour gameplay to the maps, to the key code for Reach. It REALLY sold today. Going back to what we were promised in Halo 2 for a City level Instead of the linear mess we got, that just seemed lacking compared to Halo 1. BUT This is more Halo Sand Box, I think they have listened and seen games were people can pick apart how the games flow, and seen the freedom people like, and how people like to make there choice on how to go about completing the game. IF E3 was even half of what we get than I would gladly pay 60 for it. and MIGHT pay $100. 00, I could use another Green halo controller

In Australia it works out to be about $71.
