Death to rank junkies.

Normal game. Normal price. I'm fine with it.

Edit: Get the super-soaker ready.

since i love halo and bungie i am still going to be buy the CE edition. i see no problem in the price you get alot of content for 60 dollars and 100 dollars for people who have never played halo before. yess this would be good if you never bought halo before. but for people who buy everything halo related including dlc and the original game are getting screwed. we already bought 90 dolars worth of halo content from halo 3 which we will have to rebuy. and for the major halo fans you probably bought halo more than once since you played it to much and they break. for the ones who have already bought the dlc should only pay 30 dollars for the regular edition and 70 for the CE. i still going to buy it no matter what.

tbh im a little disappointed in the price of the game, but ill probably get the LE since i need a controller anyway so it'll basically be like getting the game for 40 dollars.

Really though, I don't like microsoft.

Remember - you can find a lot worse for the price. And we haven't even seen too much about the game. I'm sure we will have a few pleasant surprises this summer.

93% of statistics are lies. Formerly Xfire Grunt. Unfortunately, you can't change the WLID for your BNET account, so I had to create an alternate account. My other WLID was spam city (and it was my e-mail account too).

The fact that Microsoft is defending the price shows there is a problem ~ when was the last time Microsoft defended a price?

You have a very valid point however, their is no way to identify those who have bought halo CE, halo 2, halo 3, and all of their dlc. Plus if they can get away with charging $30 more per person and have no one reject the price doubling, then why not double your profits? Not to metion that they might even use 50% of that $30 per person profit margin for further develepment and create much higher quality graphic engines. Ha, i didnt even know that price was originally set for only $30 so i say milk the exsese juices from our fat american asses. lol

@Helveck

Just an Average Joe...

I'm a Bungie fan. Therefore I will pay any reasonable price for something related to Bungie/Halo if I want it.

It is simply poor younger people complaining because they will have to cut several lawns to make five dollars. And that my friends, is just outrageous.

What about when they made a 512MB memory card for the 360 that cost $50, despite the fact you can buy a 4GB USB drive for $20 or less? They didnt? Oh. Well what about the 200 MS point Horse Armor? They didnt? Oh...

No I disagree. I will probalby get the game because I like Halo. Most of my friends are "meh" about Halo 3, and like Call of Duty about equally. They will probably pass by this game, making Firefight useless for me. So you have it wrong. In fact, FireFight is looking less appealing as I ask my buddies who is interested for $60.
