Xolu, I've got to reply to your ridiculous analogy:

You people really need to start thinking.
Everyone is saying that they spent $60 on a 5 hour campaign, a survival mode and 3 new maps. They don't mention the fact that there is all DLC and the whole multiplayer on the disc.
What people need to think about is the fact that NEW players too Halo can pick up ODST and get a 5 hour campaign, XX(I can't actually be bothered thinking about how many there actually are, 12? Who cares) bonus maps, firefight and spartan multiplayer. Thats what justifies the cost of $60. Just because you already have halo 3 doesn't mean that the cost should be lower. Thats just retarded. Its like buying an icecream, then buying another icecream with sprinkles on top, but then saying you should only have to pay for the sprinkles because you already have an icecream
Dude, that analogy doesn't fit at all, because a second ice cream cone is something that can be enjoyed in addition to the first, its not completely redundant and useless to someone who already has one. Everything on that second disc, aside from the three new maps, all core Halo fans have already paid for once, and Microsoft and Bungie know that those core fans are the ones lining up for ODST. So they know they are ripping people off, but they want to be able to say that they are giving you enough to warrant the $60 price, so they just threw in things that 90% of the purchasers will already have to try to justify charging twice what it is worth.
