Subject: Not gunna buy it? Prove it!

Haters are going to hate.
Praisers are going to praise.

The Bungie Forums are what keeps my mind sharp and my fingers active, between writing my own movie scripts, drawing, and studying industrial design. At the moment I'm working on miniatures for a short movie that I'll hopefully be able to film once I've saved up for a camera... That's me, with the mug, trying to have a conversation with Konoko.

Yeah, you're right about that, being constantly unimpressed isnt particularly "cool".

I have already preordered it, and I believe that I will be the game I'll be playing the most, probably untill the next Bungie game ships.

seriously!! how much will us brits be getting it for?
£35, but in the US the prices make it £45 if we were to follow the pricing.

So we effectively get it for £10 less.

Huzzah!


wont be saying huzzah when we beat you in the ashes ............ alegedly

Don't take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyways.

I've preordered it, and i think $60 is what it should cost. I mean, after all, you're getting two disks.

I'll preorder it monday so I can get Johnson but to tell the truth, I don't feel that the price deserves to be $60. Seeing as I'm basically paying for Recon Armor and the Reach beta. After I beat it I'll most likely go right back to Halo 3 and pwn newbs on the new maps. To Bungie's credit, this Crackdown technique is really effective by the looks of this thread.

Iam enjoying Halo Reach and revisiting some past Bungie games, iam a big fan of Bungie and their online community.

I'm buying it because it's oddly cheap in the UK. Possibly the UK division of Microsoft saw us as less hard-core Halo fans, so decided to lower the price for extra sales. The fools have no idea.

MWAHAHAHA!


I am not going to complain about that.
Aslo you can get it a day early because of the postage from game i think.

For the last few days many of the threads I've looked at have been OMG $60 for maps I already have and a horde mode, I aint gunna buy it.

Lets just talk about gow2 horde mode for a mo. Anybody who has played it knows its easy if you just camp one area which has a good weapon spawn in it.
According to bungie, staying in one place is suicide. gow2 is the most cumbersome, glichy, overrated game since......oh yeah, gow!! This may I remind you is HALO! The game that is still, after two years, the most played/loved game on xbox live.

I am sick to death of people saying, ''I may buy it pre-owned or not at all'' peaple who probably still play halo on a regular basis. Has nobody told you yet, it isnt cool to be unimpressed by eveything!!

Anyway, I have decided to do a little experement. If you are NOT going to buy ODST the moment it comes out or even not at all, then simply post here with your thoughts on ODST and its, if you ask me, generous price considering the success of H3.
I shall make a note of your profile and when the game comes out in sept I will see how many of you have already racked up hundreds of firefight stats and repost to show the halo community how many pretenders there are in this place!

Feel free to post your opinion regardless of whether or not you will buy it. Thanks for helping out!!!

srsly you never played gow 2 horde mod(40wave to 50) yet because if you have played it you know if you stay in one place bloodmounts will kick your a**
I don't think stay in one place will be a suicide 4 people in one place with an ar can kill easly brutes(not chieftain with hammers),grunts,drones and jackals
i think the only problem will be the hunter(gold too<) i think this strategy will work only at the first waves and after doesn't work anymore tough...
sry for the bad eng...



No.

In Gears 2 horde mode, people just go into a corner, put down a boomshield, and BAM! You're safe forever unless someone kicks it down.

[sarcasm] Yay! That's really fun! [/sarcasm]

ive bought the game of amazon uk for £30 and believe im getting a halo game i will enjoy and people who view odst as a new multiplayer mode, 3maps and a beta are idiots odst has a campaign that will advance your perspective of the halo universe which probably will smash there expectations and be a fresh halo game

ive got a bullet with your name on it but i accidently used it on justin bieber

seriously!! how much will us brits be getting it for?

  • 08.02.2009 6:17 AM PDT

bring the flame

Hmmm..........I've noticed that nobody has committed to saying they wont buy it yet which means my thread is more successful than I imagined it would be.

EVERYONE will buy it!

HUZZAH!!!

  • 08.04.2009 10:09 AM PDT

GoW isn't as overrated as you say it is, but it is a little overrated.
I can't stand it when people say that Bungie copied Horde, when Bungie just made a survival mode, just like the hundreds of other game companies have.
I'll be getting my copy early morning before work so that the stores won't be so packed with people. Also, I don't believe $60 is a generous price; but it is a fair price at the very least.

The Limited Edition (Comes with a ODST-Skinned Wireless Controller) is £60 RRP.
The regular version is £40 RRP but is being (Pre-release price;) sold at £35 and £30 at most retailers.

I'm getting 5 copies of the Limited Edition at £50 each though.
£50 is $84.52 each.

Lol, this is a good idea, although will probably attract a lot of haters. I for one already have the Limited Edition pre-ordered. I will be at the midnight launch.
I might be at the midnight launch.

I'm willing to bet you'd buy ODST if it cost $100 for the normal game, OP.
