I pre-ordered, but not at a selected retailer. Why?
Firstly, because I wasn't planning on paying an extra $20 dollars just for Johnson. Second, because the retailer I pre-ordered from was selling the game at $80 dollars, Australian currency (That's about $40 dollars for you Americans), which I think is perfectly fine for an expansion, and most definately for the already-owned multiplayer component. And Third? Buckle in.
You see, Johnson isn't going to be the 'cool' thing in firefight. ODST's are.
So many people have pre-ordered Halo 3: ODST at selected retailers, that there is going to be at least one Johnson in every game of firefight. No one will be cool because they have Johnson. Sure it's cool to play as one of your favourite characters previously unavailable, but is it really worth it? You're still only going to be shooting and blowing things up. And no, you can't taste that cigar in your mouth. Sorry kiddies. Some guy with Johnson will be pulling up into a game of firefight thinking, "I'm going to look the coolest in this game!" only to be greeted with 4 other faces of similarity. Then comes the blamming, stabbing and what not.
Now the Modern Warfare 2: Prestige edition is something awesome. Night Vision goggles? Who wouldn't love that.
I'll be proud the be an ODST. At an awesome price.
=)
Please. Those night-vision goggles are so cheap, I bet you'd be blind at noon.
