Prepare to Drop.

I was one of the people who origanlly was not going to buy ODST, however I was looking at http://xbox.joystiq.com/ (which I do daily). They sometimes have articles on videogame deals and I found this gem, http://xbox.joystiq.com/2009/08/06/halo-3-odst-pre-order-drop s-to-50-at-buy-com/. You can get Halo 3: ODST for only 50 bucks and get the Sgt. Johnson code! It's not the origanally announce $40 but hey that $10 savings swayed me. Just thought I would share this tidbit of info while it lasts.

Sounds like a bunch of Justin Bieber wannabes in here. I bet you all wear skinny jeans too.

Hmm. Do I want to pay an extra $10, but have the game the day it comes out or do I want to save $10 but get the game a few days after it comes out?

I'm going to have to go with the extra $10. Besides, that's probable about how much shipping will cost you anyways.

i would pay the extra $10 at gamestop for the security and having a store in my town than some place on the Internet

Shipping is free.

gamestop's site still says its 60 bucks so thats what I'm paying for. Its just 10 bucks and I trust going to an actual store rather than buying it online

Trust my ass. I went to Gamestop and got Halo 2 Vista brand new. When I opened it up, the disc wasn't even in the damn case! I had to go back and get a new one because the guy I bought the first copy from said I was a liar :\
I still trust some other Gamestops just a little. But I always check either Target or Wal-Mart first to see who's got it cheapest.

Yeah, I just picked up on that. But I would still rather have the game ASAP than let USPS take "care" of it. They always throw things over my fence ._.

Thanks for the headsup with the discount. I don't check Joystiq that often, but this is very useful.

Just remember that no matter how terrible you feel, or how much you want to let go, there are people who care about you and love you.

Or you could buy it used for $55 and save 5 of the $10 you spent on shipping and overnight delivery....

I am a Halo 3 Failure.

I think I'm going to spend the (not) extra money so I can actually give Bungie what they deserve for making an awesome game instead of being a cheap ass.

But thanks for asking.

If you're getting a game from Wal-Mart or Target it's likely you might save 2-5 bucks, though there is the occasional whopping $20 off sale! Just see this thread as a bearer of good news, don't be rude about it because you'll be saving ten dollars that can be used to buy groceries for a day or two or for an oil change or a new Xbox Live Arcade game.

Thanks for the info man =)

Lies. Groceries for a day or two is about $50...
But I do see where your coming from.

It's $10 if you buy the generic brands, but the flavor of food always sucks.
I'd be grateful to save $10. I was just stating I don't trust Gamestop. I fully trust Buy.com. They've never failed me.
