Subject: I call -blam!- on the $60 price tag

Why is everyone obsessed with the number 60? ODST is clearly much less. Just look at the amazon price. Admitted thats UK price, in US$ thats about $50 and I'm sure if you look around the internet you will be able to get it for less.

Please no more cries of "$60, my wallet is bleeding" if you look around you'll find ODST for much less.

This apple is brown, and rotten. This orange on the other hand, is in relatively average shape. So the orange is definitely the preferable option.
----------You can't compare apples and oranges. You're so dumb.

Its full price, Amazon is wrong. It sucks, but thats the price.

Regardless of what the full price is, you don't need to pay full price. If you can get it for £29, it costs £29.

Okay, my bad. OP has been edited.

LOL! That's happened twice to you now hasn't it? Forum communities are so funny sometimes.

Anyway I've been looking for cheap prices, I think Tesco is selling ODST for about £35, or so I've heard.

alright:

Mythic Map pack: 20 dollars for 6 maps. yes this is a rip off for those of us who already bought the first three

Campaign: not sure how long this is really so I will say it is worth about 25 dollars for story and game play value

Fire Fight: 10 dollars for game play value.

Achievements: 5 dollars simply for Recon armor

60 dollars.

EDIT: I misread teh OP. Gamestop is selling for 60 but its still worth it

Tell me about it, I'm slowly coming around to the conclusion that 99% people on the forums type first and think later.

It's simply incredible how ignorant some people can be.

"Let me turret, you suck at it. Don't be sad we all know it."

If someone already did this, my apologies.

Compare Halo 3 ODST to Halo 3.

Halo 3:
5-7 Hour campaign
11 maps
Online multiplayer
Etc.

Halo 3 ODST:
5-7 Hour campaign
New maps for Halo 3
Recon Armor for Halo 3
Firefight
Invitation to Halo Reach Beta
Sergeant Johnson Pre-Order bonus
Etc.

How is ODST not worth $60? This is like the 10th thread were people are whining about the price!

1.Arkham Asylum, 2.Mass Effect, 3.Halo CE, 4.Mass Effect 2, 5.Halo 2, 6.Splinter Cell Double Agent, 7.Gears of War 2, 8.Medievil, 9.Oblivion, 10.Crash Team Racing

Shorter campaign than Halo3? With mostly just drawn out sandbox level instead of intense storydriven action?
Halo3 Multiplayer with the DLC maps?
Firefight? Supposedly quite a limited extra mode you fight against Covenant. No offline records and designed for 4 players.

This is a bargain bin purchace, official.

dont buy it
u dont deserve it if u keep complaining

  • 07.26.2009 9:35 PM PDT

-I was here

i noticed some1 posted a break down of the odst price so im gonna correct him
mythic map pack 2=$10
every other multiplayer map on 1 disc=free
campaign=$20
firefight=$20
profit for the store(middleman) selling the game(they need money too)=$10
note-the achievements are thrown in with the other stuff

as for the op, if u can get it for a cheaper price, then do so, thanks for letting the idiots who complain about the price know they can get it for less(it might stop em from whinning)

Also, I slightly disagree with the way you priced it. I'd add five dollars to Firefight, and I'd mention you get access to the Reach beta as a free bonus.

Now, who wouldn't want the game priced to fairly?
