Dont pre-order, and cuz YOU live in Singapore, means WE cant have bonuses cuz of it? How about as long as ppl live in the US, Singapore is auto banned from gold and silver XBL? Seems fair in you logic.

You fail at attempting to use logic to make a proper counter-argument.

If a pre-order bonus is to be included, (as many others have stated) it should not give a player an advantage over players who didn't buy the game. Halo Wars did a good job by giving people who pre-ordered flaming warthogs, and striped wraiths. ODST did fairly decent as well by allow players to play as Sergeant Johnson. Whatever the OP suggested was completely ridiculous.

How about they just give us the whole game, instead of making us put money down so they can have a deal with gamestop.

We don't know if we play as Chief yet. Mind you, Bungie might make a "second Recon armour".

That would work great, however this would require a further and well developed system, so anyone in the world if they pre-order their game will still get their bonus stuff, also, why bother making stuff available for pre-order? Making up a few XBOX LIVE downloads and some special edition featuring them would be easer for everyone. (and nobody would risk to don't get his/her own extras)

Exclusive weapons and equipment? No.

Exclusive armor permutations/etc.? Go for it.

You can't kill what's dead.

Stand. Fight. Resist. S2F.

My ideal pre-order bonus is THEM HAVING THE DAMN GAME WHEN I COME TO PICK IT UP.

Pre-order bonuses are so lame.

Keepin' my ammo dry and my eyes on the target.

If I got a pre-order bonus I woould want it to be a life size Assault Rifle. That would be awsome.

I care. Pre-order bonuses suck.

Let us cast arms aside
And discard our wrath
Thou, in faith, will keep us safe
Whilst we find the path

"There are no winners in a war. There's just the side who loses a little bit less than the other."

If they add a pre-order bonus, they should make it that if you don't pre-order it you can still unlock it in-game.
I still think pre-order bonuses are stupid though.
