Subject: 60 bucks for a new campaign, mode,3 maps, and a beta?

Since I already have halo 3 and all the maps that have been released, I feel that 60 bucks and to much to pay for a campaign that will last 5 hours, and new game mode, three maps, and a beta invitation. I am basically paying for stuff I already have(mythic and legendary map pack). What ever happened to this being and expansion and not being full price. I will probably not buy this until a year later when it is 10 bucks--

Hey guess what!? I play CoD more than Halo, but I'm not an annoying fanboy. I love CoD more, but I like how involved the Halo Community is...

Stop b!+ching, its over u can't change the price.

I love you stosh.

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.

My pet frog once attempted suicide but I saved it.

hmm..... campain, new Multiplayer mode, map pack, and halo: reach beta invitation..... that seems worth $60 to me.

  • 08.14.2009 7:55 AM PDT

lol, I probably shouldn't have posted this on bungie's forums

  • 08.14.2009 7:55 AM PDT

i'd pay $60 for just ODST campaign

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Seriously, will people stop -blam!-ing about the price, its a game, consider it another one of the many that are out and deal with it.

"Anyone can give up it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's the true strength."

The campaign will last about 9 hours, with all delays and such. FireFight will probably add another unlimited possibility of fun. The Beta is free, the 3 maps are about 10 dollars, and the mythic and legendary are 20. Really? If you don't want to pay 60/don't have enough. Okay with us.

I have a solution, trade in Halo 3 for it. That's what I'm doing. I probably won't get much off, but at least I'll actually be paying for something I won't have.

Someone with intelligence. Seriously, I have been going through everyone's reasoning and they always seem to price the beta. You haven't though, so thumbs up to you.

It's totally worth it dude! Imagine the invitation to Reach, it's gonna be so sweet! All the new weapons, the AWESOME grafics, new maps etc.

  • 08.14.2009 7:59 AM PDT

I love you stosh.

It's enough for me that it's Bungie. I will and have bought any Bungie game.

The campaign is supposed to take about 7+ hours. I think if it had never been announced that they were going to sell it for cheaper to begin with noone would complain. Full length campaign + plus brand new 4 player coop mode + full Halo 3 multiplayer mode with new maps is more than a lot of games have that sell at normal retail price or higher.

you may have the maps but other people shure don't the maps are for everyone who does and doesent have them

  • 08.14.2009 8:05 AM PDT

Yeh I know at least one person who doesn't have the maps and is waiting for ODST. Microsoft points make buying anything a pain in the -blam!- so its good theyre getting a proper retail release. And what about people who don't have Halo 3 fullstop? Do you just want Bungie not to charge them at all, or do you want Bungie to make well-earned money and keep making games?

Big Team Battle Multiflag/Slayer on Standoff/Valhalla/Sandtrap/Avalanche = Win

Isn't Halo Mythic the same thing as Halo 3 except no campaign or forge?

  • 08.14.2009 8:18 AM PDT

-Delta0Medusa-

Its worth it.

  • 08.14.2009 8:20 AM PDT

$60 for all of that? Pshh, I'm buying the $99 from Gamestop so I can get the controller!

It does include forge, just no campaign.

Odst campaign will be very long. not 5 hours

Such as Bioshock, Fallout 3, and Assassin's Creed.
Which all had campaigns well over 20+ hours. So I don't see how that argument really works.

Campaign- isn't that long
Multiplayer Mode- Rip off of gears of wars Horde/-blam!- Zombie's CoD WaW
Maps- It's only 3 maps calm yourself it's the value of $10
Halo Reach Beta: it's a beta not a demo. Demo > Beta. Beta's are limited it will only be available for about 2 weeks prior to release
