Subject: Bungie drops the ball with ODST Special Edition

AM I NOT MERCIFUL?!?!?!?

tEE hEE[tm]

Wow, just wow.

I guess there is a first time for everything, I mean jeez I have seen no-name games that come out of nowhere with better Special Editions package. The controller you get with ODST SE is just to put it mildly "Bland", I think it could be recreated with some magic markers, and stencils. How about some premium ODST art perhaps?

I'm gonna do you guys a big favor, and tell you what you need to pack in with "Halo ODST SPECIAL EDITION.

1. "F.N.G." Key chain

2. Making of DVD/ wif Nathan Fillion, Adam Baldwin, Alan Tudyk, and Tricia Heifer.

3. Cool ass ODST artwork Controller

4. A Nathan Fillion/SGT Buck bobblehead saying "BAM! said the lay-dee!

5. Last but not least, a pony, and or a plastic rocket.

There ya go Bungie, no need to thank me, but do I really have to be the one to tell you that "ODST" is going to be the "Big Damn Game" of the year?

P.S. I understand if it's too late to pack any of that stuff in, but I don't care how long it takes to get it, long as I get it, got it?

My talents include always knowing the wrong thing to say.

If you don't like it, don't buy it. I like the last idea though =D

You may be special but that doesn't mean you're useful

And what exactly are you going to do if you don't get it ? Not buy their game ?

I'm sure that'll make a big difference, what with the millions of other people that will buy the game. I'm sure you $60 will make that much difference.

Stop complaining and just be happy with what you get. Bungie doesn't owe you anything

You're wrong, they owe us everything, as we owe them. Usually they go the extra mile, and deliver. That's why I was so shocked when I went to pre-order the Special Edition. Don't get me wrong, i'll still buy the game, but just surprised is all.

Oooo "F.N.G" dog tags, now thats sexy, any other cool ideas?

Halo 3 = God Game
Halo 3: ODST = Awesome game
Halo Reach = (I hope its beyond God game!)

I earned Recon!
OXM, thanks for the mythic code!

I think the controller is a good idea, but not as good as the Halo 3 Legendary edition. I dont mind that much though, if you're not bothered about the controller, dont get it. I wouldnt mind getting the collectors edition, but its money restricting me, (I'm only 15, and I dont really get money much, only occasionally, where I'm quite poor in money, I'm the best in everything else that matters!).
I reckon the controller does look quite cool, but I reckon the edition could have been better, perhaps include a book showing info about all the characters, or an ODST helmet or whatever.
I dont mind much however.
In reach though, I would like to see a lot of good things packed into both versions of the game for a considerable amount of money, considering its the last Halo game they're going to make, and hopefully the best. Thats my opinion.

Fact 2: European guys are hotter

I guess I can understand if you don't want to make out with guys in the US if they're so ugly, you should just say so though.


1. "F.N.G." Key chain

Look at any of the special McFarlane Halo 3 controllers, then look at ODST SE controller an tell me it's not lacking.

The ODST controller is fine, but still I expect more from "Halo ODST Special Edition".

  • 08.04.2009 6:54 AM PDT

They should give us the steak they owe us instead of that.

Yea. Probably the biggest bummer for me now that I've gotten into the mood of getting Special Editions to every game I really like (This year's being Dragon Age: Origins, Modern Warfare 2 and of course, Halo 3: ODST), ODST's Special Edition offerings kinda bum me out. I was expecting at least a cool bonus DVD.

But the fact that there is no Bonus DVD makes me think and hope that the Video Team at Bungie is working on other great stuff for future projects perhaps?

Golf Wang. Brony.

Such a shame, really. But to be honest, I'm simply getting the normal edition, anyway.

...
On a completely unrelated note, did Bungie ever make a deleted scenes sort of disc, not only for cinematics but for real campaign levels, playable or otherwise?

I love you stosh.

For Halo 2 or 3 they included a Beastiary and some sort of deleted content. Not playable (In most cases)

Yeah, didn't expect Bungie to polish up deleted stages to get played again XD

That would be crazy it would have the rod dot sight attachment with the silencer. It would be like the MW2 night vision google but a lot better!

maybe something like this would happen with reach special edition?

It's a full game. <_<

No. OP. No. the game is being printed as we speak, I'd bet. They cannot add anything.

It is a full game, but it is a side story. Just wait until you see the Hype being built up for Reach, that will be awesome.
