It`s a matter of opinion on what I think ODST is worth. Keep in mind that I think ODST is worth $60. I think that the 3 new maps and Firefight add to its worth.

You forgot about another $30 for the other map packs.


I just made a post explaining why I think ODST is worth $60. I added Legendary and Mythic to the price. I`m making a suggestion to those who think ODST is overpriced.

I think I`m going to change the title of the post. Too many people are getting this the wrong way.

I`m not complaining in the least bit. I`m making a suggestion to those who think ODST`s overpriced. I was going to buy ODST anyways. This benefits those who didn`t particulary like Halo 3`s Campaign or could live without it.

I don`t know how that`s possible without people even taking a moment to read the post I made. I made sure to make myself neutral, to take away attention from me. I never stated once (before I edited my OP) which side I agreed on. I simply made a suggestion. I never said that I think Microsoft was jipping me. I even referred to the people who think ODST isn`t worth its price. I have no idea how I got misunderstood, as I never referenced myself once before I edited the OP.

Well once you edited it It's pretty clear what you mean.Before People just assumed you were another person complaining about the price...

Every new game that we have bought has been $60.00. Even though Halo 3 ODST is $60.00 and doesn't have matchmaking you still have to pay for the 3 new mythic maps, the halo reach beta, the campaign,the halo 3 multiplayer which includes forge, and firefight mode. That's why it's $60.00. I'm still gonna pay for just like all my other preordered games that were $60.00.

It`s just that I never once attacked the price. I simply made a suggestion. That`s what makes me so confounded.

BTW, thank you for actually taking the time understanding what I`m trying to say.

Are you under the assumption that I`m attacking the price? Holy crap people, I even edited the whole post explaining why I feel that ODST is worth the price, then explaining how you can save money by simply returning your Halo 3 disc.

I know that. However, the cost of the Microsoft Points used to download the maps are at least $20. Mythics cost $10, so the other $10 is for Legendary, at least IMO. Even then, $18 is close enough to $20. I`d also point out that the Legendary maps were 800 points for the longest time, so I`m trying to appeal to the audience that bought Legendary when it was that price as well.

I've been saying this same thing for months. Sell Halo 3 if you can't afford it.

Also, I'd say that it's $20 for Campaign, $15 for Firefight, and $5 for the new maps (no offense to Bungie, everything in ODST looks epic).

Trying to appeal to the audience who bought Legendary already? Hey you guys already bought these maps, but your going to buy them agian. Really the multiplayer disc is really a great value for people who haven't or can't buy downloaded maps. Besides, whats a map if none of your friends can play it with you. If you and your friends buy ODST your guaranteed that you will all be able to play together. A lot of my friends bought Halo 3, but not all of them bought downloadable maps. A lot of my friends will buy ODST, and wwe can play all the maps.
