Subject: Boycot ODST until lowers Price

To you it might not be woth $60, but to me the campaign, firefight, a map pack, and reach beta make it worth the $60 to me.

No one is forcing you to buy it.

Wow, get a job, mow a lawn, but seriously you can afford an Xbox 360, XBL Halo 3, and other things which is about 400 dollars but you can't afford 60?

Furry At Heart,
Furry Forever óÓÒò

Supreme mastery therefore, is not to be victorious in all your battles; supreme excellence is to be victorious without fighting.

"Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies. "

5 hours gameplay? Who told you that?

The open world environment gives it infinite gameplay. Look at Fallout 3, it tool 170 hours before I got tired of running around that open world. Halo 3: ODST will use a similar system and thus, it would make sense that it will take more than 100 hours before one will get tired of running around New Mombasa. You do not have to speed run the game. Have some fun and explore.

I don't think I'll play Fire-fight much because I haven't directly been told that you can play online with people not on your friends list like in CoD: WaW.

The new campaign alone is enough to justify the $60 cost of the game for me. I have a job and include in my budget an allotment of money for games. That allotment more than covers $60. So either stop complaining and save up, or stop complaining and don't buy it.

And before you ask, I read your entire post, and all of the replys.

I agree a boycott is in order. But it won't fly here cause there's too many fanboys kissing Bungie's rear end willing to fork over any amount they charge for their games.


Fanboys? Kissing Bungie's rear? Really?

Just because we are going to buy a game without whining like 5-year olds doesn't mean we are "fanboys" that are "kissing Bungie's rear end".


Your fanboys because you follow them like sheep. You've drank so much Bungie-aid that you dont' realize that your getting ripped off. They say jump, you say how high?


Or, I just think the game will be good, and instead of whining, I will buy it.

Why whine? It's getting you people nowhere.

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Cheeto is the only one among you that doesn't suck.

Seems like this game will have more replay value than Halo 3, as it has the multiplayer elements with it, but a brand new campaign and firefight. It should be worth seventy or eighty dollars.

Please, GTFO of the forums if you are just here to complain. Microsoft doesn't care if 100 people boycott the game like 12 year olds. That's only $600. A small portion of what they are gonna make, regardless of your childish whining. Go ahead, take your boycotting group and try to shove one up Microsoft's ass, they just crap it out and ask if there is more.

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Just rent it like I am.

It's not really worth 60$ IMO.

  • 06.16.2009 2:18 PM PDT

Hey! Listen! HEY!- The words of Navi

Halo ODST: $30
Half of halo 3(multiplayer): $20
Halo reach beta, and new maps: $10
=
$60


Its fair, live with it.

That's one of the reasons why if you're using bungie.net polls to collect any kind of real data, you're completely insane.

Think about games like Fallout 3, they only have SP and no MP but they are easily worth $60 because they are very good games, ODST is like Fallout 3 (content-wise) but it contains, content for 2 other games, and an XBL Co-Op campaign, and Multiplayer survival mode.

Now to me that easily sounds like its worth $60.

Stop thinking about ODST as a Halo 3 DLC package and think of it as a brand new title to the Xbox 360.

Hey. Pull my dongle.


Cmon, just one time, you big baby!

Q. No ODST multiplayer
A. There are no armor premutations and plus it's gonna be weird playing without energy shields.

Q. Campaign for only 5 hours
A. Makes it easier to beat Heroic and Legendary.

Q. This shows disloyalty to loyal Bungie members
A. Stop complaining and be grateful they're coming out with 2 new Halos instead of no new ones.

All points addressed. PWNED...FTW.

this is outrageous! Us loyal bungie fans are paying money for maps that we already freaking bought!!!! At least make 2 choices. One with the other map packs, and one with only the new one.

No ODST multiplayer.... come on that would be sick playing as an ODST in matchmaking.

Campaign only 5 hours.... that just shows bungie lazyness.

No one buy the game until they lower at to AT LEAST $45.

edit- is reach beta worth flippin 15 bucks....
fire fight will get old after 10 hours of gameplay.


The only legitimate argument you have is paying for maps you already bought.

You can be an ODST in Matchmaking, they have the helmet. If you wanna be an actual ODST and run slower, jump lower, and have less health then Yeah I think they should let you. Turn your handicap on if you think you're that good.

They've taken back what they said before and said the campaign is longer, they've said the main sandbox is the biggest location they've ever made for a Halo game and you can spend plenty of time exploring all of it.

Reach beat is most definitely worth $15 dollars.

And Firefight is going to be fun for WAY more than 10 hours. You're never gonna have the same experience twice.

Stop being an idiot.
