lols everyone knows bulletproof glass cannot withstand teacups thrown by russian women.

Question for you all: Do the new Halo 3 maps, the Sgt. Johnson preorder bonus, and the invitation to participate in the Halo: Reach beta all come with the standard edition of Halo 3: ODST, or are any/all of them exclusive to the Special Edition?

I could be way wrong on this but I'll try.

I think the Special edition costs around $100 and you get some kind of controller with it.

Pre-ordering any edition gets you the code to play as Johnson during Firefight.

Any copy of ODST gets you all the H3 maps and access to the Reach beta.

Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Edit: Sorry for the crappy way I strung that post together. :(

Yeah, I heard about the controller...I don't care about that, but I'll get the SE if I have to so I can get all the things listed above.

So, do you know if you have to preorder the SE to get Johnson, or do you get him if you preorder either one?

Good question.

I think that a preorder of either one should earn you the download code for Johnson. I'm fairly sure they would do that, maybe double check with your retailer.

Edit: All it takes is a preorder to get Johnson, I don't think it matters whether it's the SE or the regular ODST package.

Spartans are from Venus and Elites are from Uranus

Yeah, both editions are the same. The only difference is you get a controller with the special edition. Even the box art and everything is the same. And you get Sergeant Johnson for preordering it has nothing to do with which version you get.

Everything that is in the SE comes in the regular edition, save the controller.

Peace through superior firepower.

Controller FTW. I thought the controller was separate like the actual Halo 3 controllers. Hmm... I want an ODST helmet/game case to accompany the Spartan-II helmet. Would fill my desk completely, but its FTW.

Ready to enlist? Sign up early by pre-ordering your copy of Halo 3: ODST at select retailers and get a token to unlock Sgt. Johnson for use in Firefight

Any ideas as to which retailers in which countries are doing this?
