Subject: Getting Johnson question

Skill is for those who have time to try. I prefer luck. its easy simple and not that hard to pull off. but not every ones got it. Born lucky and maybe i just have to much of it.
LUCK > SKILL

well i went to an FYE and i got to pre order ODST and the lady got my phone number, deposite and name. all i got was a receipt. all i want to know is do i get the code for Johnson when i go to pick it up? My friend preordered from gamestop i think and got the box and the code for johnson so im just wondering if i need to preorder there instead?

The fight has been complete.... now get the cookies!

While we certainly share your enthusiasm for the return, we here at the Bungie.net community are mostly made up of snarky asses and jerks who will ridicule you for making a thread about something revealed months ago. We regret that your innocent intentions will almost certainly be replied with anger and sarcasm, and politely invite you to don your Flame-suit, because you just did the internet equivalent of jumping up the Construct lifts.

GameStop gives a reciept, BestBuy gives you the Code and case but you cant use the code yet and the case is empty

oh just found the list on the ODST page. and its not there. does that mean they would just let you preorder and not get johnson. i had the option of buying ODST and the game would come with a controller

When pre-ordering, you should have asked about the Johnson bonus. If they don't do it, cancel the pre-order, and find somewhere that does.

Yep, its a store exclusive. I ordered the collectors pack(the one with the controller) from gamestop.

"Everyone, fire at Will!"
"Why? What did Will ever do to you?"

Johnson comes with any preorder. Controller or not.

Provided, of course, the store you preorder from offers the Johnson bonus...

Yes, but only if the store selling it offers the Johnson bonus.

how much more does it cost with the controller?

  • 08.12.2009 11:23 PM PDT

The collector's edition costs 100$, the regular package costs 60$. So the controller technically costs 40$. A new standard wireless XBox 360 controller costs 50$. So the collector's edition is a good deal.

Check Out my FileShare.
I was once on Bungie Faves. (Feb.7-15)
I'd like to know why I can't see the signatures of others of myself on the forum. I have made favs once, 7777 campaign kills, and I helped bring modders down when they were at their strongest

Plus if you are like me and own the Halo 3 Xbox, you can finally get another matching controller. =D
