The soul knows no death.
I am an Eagle Scout.
Let me first say that I will be buying ODST. On to my point. Bungie has recently confirmed the $60 price tag of ODST. This has come as a surprise and a disappointment to many a fan. Let me also say I was one of the disgruntled fans of this price tag, but it was not without warrant. Months ago Bungie also announced that ODST would be a value priced "expansion", this is the real reason I am annoyed with the price. While none of us fans have played the full game yet, I am not going to decide whether the price is fair at this time. But I will still stick to the fact that Bungie mislead us gamers.
The number one most important thing in the sales industry is trust. After three fantastic games in the Halo series, we as a community have grown to trust Bungie and believe that they value us. That is why it kills me that they would change this game from a "value oriented" title to a full blown game priced at $60. I know that a person's or company's word means very little now days, which is a real shame. Nothing takes a hand shake to settle anymore, it's got to be in the writing of a contract, which Bungie almost gave us. I also know that Micro$oft has a very large amount of say when it comes to pricing, but I had hoped that Bungie would stay true and deliver for us. Maybe this was an unavoidable occurrence, but I am still disappointed.
With that said, what do you guys think of what I have said? Are you disappointed like I am, that Bungie is not coming through for us on their earlier statement? Thanks for reading.
