This item is already available to pre-order at most retailers! Which retailers are "selected retailers"? Will I get the token if I order from Game.co.uk?

The ODST page on this web site states:

"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."

I have contacted numerous retailers and none of them knew whether or not the bonus token would be included in the pack! This question has been asked repeatedly in these forums with no answer to date. Could somebody from Bungie please help? :)

There are some listed here, but I agree, I went to Game and Gamestation in the UK yesterday, and they told me that they'd never even heard of Halo 3:ODST, so I was all :-/

It'd be nice to have a solid, official list.

agreed, we need an official source for list of accepted retailers from either Microsoft or Bungie

He meant to say 'Genesis', not 'genius'...

But yeah, I hope GAME at least get it. If Gamestation get it then that's even more awesome.

For the UK I can find no evidence that Amazon.co.uk or Game.co.uk are offering the Sgt Johnson bonus token. They don't have the collectors edition of ODST either.

I contacted Amazon.co.uk and Game.co.uk by email.

Amazon.co.uk -- according to their reply they know nothing about the bonus token:

"The information listed for this product on our website is all the manufacturer has passed along to us. As this item is not yet released, we are unable to check this item physically and provide the information you requested. In this case, we request you to contact us once this item has been released, so we will send a request to our Fulfilment Centre staff to physically check the item to see if your question can fully answered..."

Game.co.uk - I'll update this post as soon as I hear back from them, so watch this space...

The issue raised by my original post still stands, but the topic now continues in this thread.
