1.) 'We do not view this as a 60$ game', and look, it's 60$.
2.) Microsoft says part of the pricing includes a beta to Halo : Reach. YES. THAT'S RIGHT. They're MAKING you pay for a BETA That's FORCIBLY included in a game. If you buy it, even after the beta period is over, the 'pricing' for the Beta is STILL Included in the 60$ you will buy, even if the beta period is over
3.) Halo 3 ODST is the only expansion pack for a popular video game that costs 60$
4.) The Recon Helmet is still banned to people on 'The List' if you buy ODST. This will equate to False Advertising if 'Get recon!' is on the back of the box, or anywhere in the game manual. Hopefully nothing about the game tells people that Recon is unlockable, because i can prove this is false advertising. Basically, if someone was on the list BEFORE Halo 3 RECON was announced, then even if you buy the game, something you did before the game was announced barred you from recon.
5.) Sgt. Johnson is unlockable in Firefight.
This does NOT MAKE SENSE AT ALL
Want to know why? ODST's have a 'Nightvision' mode, or something like that. As you know, Johnson doesn't have a visor, so how would he use night vision?
That's right. THEY MADE SGT. JOHNSON A ROBOT
Well, that'd explain why he's immune to the Flood...
1) Well, you get (with the normal version):
-ODST Campaign
-ODST Firefight
-Halo 3 multiplayer
-All Halo 3 multiplayer maps, upcoming and otherwise
-(Pre-order)Sgt. Johnson as a playable Firefight character
Not worth sixty dollars to you? Don't buy the game.
2)Please, inform us where and when any Microsoft associate, employee or otherwise, said this.
3)An expansion pack for a game would add actual content to a game that somehow adds to a playing experience. ODST itself is not an expansion. The maps may be seen as expansions, however, forming an expasion pack for Halo 3 multiplayer. ODST is its own game that adapted the "Halo 3" title from, well, Halo 3.
4)Actually, anyone can get recon armor from the Vidmaster achievments once ODST is released. They just have to be careful and not get it taken away. Also, it is not false advertising to say that recon armor is unlockable if it is. Even if someone on the list couldn't get it from ODST, it would still be unlockable, just not to everyone.
5)It is understandable that you see this as something that doesn't make much sense, but why does it matter.? First of all, you don't have to use him, and unless you pre-order ODST from a select retailer, you won't use him (at least with your ODST). Second of all, you should just enjoy it. If you use him, who cares if it doesn't make sense? Does it make sense that someone in a set of armor weighing quite a good deal can fall ten stories and not be crushed under their own weight? No, but I'm sure you don't have a problem with it.
