I was just looking a gamestop.com and found an exclusive offer for ODST, It includes
1. Halo 3 ODST
2. ODST exclusive wireless controler
I want to ask you if you think this is a reasonable offer, IF also included with the Fire-Fight mode Srg. Johnson codes (preorder ONLY, not included as part of this offer)
It's $100 so I'm not quite sure it's worth it...

I AM NOT ADVERTIZING!!!!!

and how!

Of course it is a good offer. It is a great offer for all those whiners who think it should cost $40.

ODST: $60
Wireless controller: $60

Collectors Edition: $100 Save $20!

Even if you don't need the controller buy the collectors edition and sell the controller for full value, and there you go. Halo 3: ODST for $40.

Would you dance for it?

Expensive controller.

[I actually like the wired controllors more, my fingers feel cramped agianst the battery pack]

Maybe I will never be
All the things that I wanna be
But now is not the time to cry
Now's the time to find out why
I think you're the same as me
We see things they'll never see
You and I are gonna live forever

I need a new controller.

sounds like you can buy a $60.00 wireless controller for $40.00. And it's got some cool little design on it. So yeah I'd say it's worth it.

You're an idiot. It absolutely does apply. Just because it isn't Halo it means it doesn't apply ? He's pointing out that people would still pay a lot for preorder content, or people will try to sell them from a lot.

Yes but how long has that Gears one been out, ODST isn't even out yet, sure it will still sell alot but we dont know the real worth yet...Nice try though

The fact of the matter is that Gears 2 sold over 5 million copies (2.1 million of which were on opening day, possibly preorders with gold lancer code), and even with those massive numbers a code is selling for 45 bucks on Ebay. Now I'm sure that people will pay the same for a Halo character model as they will for a gears weapon model. While we don't know what it's worth, that proves that there is a market for DLC codes. Nice try though.
