Subject: Everybody who says ODST is too expensive, HAVE A CRY

All the people who keep saying that odst is way too expensive, stop complaining! All the people who seem to be complaining are American and you guys get games cheaper than any other country. Let me show you.

Australia ODST cost = 100 (AUS) = $83.3284 (USD)
England ODST cost = 40 (ENG) = $66.2123 (USD)
Countries that use euro ODST cost = 70 (EURO) = $100.309 (USD)

Just look at any country and they will have it more expensive than you. Plus ODST is at full length game (even longer than halo 3) with multiplayer.

Good point OP , makes me feel better haha

-I was here

yet another person with a good point. oh and by the way, not ALL americans are jerks, its just that most of the americans whining about the price are the 10 year olds(who shouldn't even be playing halo in the 1st place) whos parents are most likely going to buy the game for them and call of duty fanboys who want modern warfare 2 to do better than halo cuz they is jealous so they came to these forums to complain about something they don't even care about just to get less people to want to buy ODST(btw, their plan failed).

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

Yeah, that just justifies it. It's way too expensive for them too.

PM me any Coup questions you have.

I don't like it when people say that we Americans are jerks. Most of the people that you've seen over Live are bratty little kids, who whine all over the place cuz, well, that's there nature. For a mature game, there sure are a lot of immature gamers. I wish there was a law that says Ages 17+ (NO EXCEPTIONS) or something.

So the game is not expensive for me because I actually HAVE the money for it, unlike the other little kids who beg for their parents to buy it for them.

Sorry for the rant, but it was necessary.

I couldn't think of anything creative, so I just wrote this.

Game prices in canada are the same as the US but wedon't whine we aprreciate hard work, and are willing to pay a resonable price for it.

M stands for Mature, not Mom buy this ;)

But seriously, why would they cry about it being $60? Every other good 360 game is $60 when it comes out.

It's not the price it self, but rather the thought of paying more than needed. Fullprice for a campaign expantion can seem a bit, unjustyfied. By the way, Denmark which uses DKK:

550 DKK = 105 $

News flash. Americans value hard work just as much as anyone. The problem is the little kids who have been raised getting whatever they want and expect people to just give it to them. That doesn't happen, so they complain about stupid crap.

Well Amazon in England is selling ODST for 30 (ENG), which is about $49.66, so they get like a $10 discount, so Americans are getting ripped

Hey, how about this: everybody stop complaing about the cost. It's not like it'll be cheaper 6 months later.

I'm sick of 12 year olds ragging on Americans when its our country and our expertise that keep you safe at night. Just think about that just incase one night you wake up with a foreign military knocking on your front door A$$hole.
Comments like that is why people get bad impressions of Americans. I personally have no bias against americans. Only Quebecers.

Technically all those little brats have no rights and are property of their parents, therefore it is the parents decision to introduce them to that content. It is only illegal if the store sells the kid the game. We dont get rights untill were 18 :{

its not an "expantion" as you call it, its a full game with a 9 hour campaign and firefight.

BTW, its spelled "expansion"
