Got to play the Halo Reach beta for my 23rd birthday sweet timing Bungie : D curry and halo = win thats what I did on my birthday!

If anyone can report on how the bags are packed that would be great. Also is everyone getting a signed printed card with these bags? Also someone mentioned a number tag inside the swag bag did anyone else check?

This is like Christmas and I haven't even got my bag yet watching people post images will be like Christmas for the next month!

I still have my Halo 2 collectors edition, that I managed to get one at my local store without a pre-order on release day. For those who get it now don't forget you won't be able to play it online.

Happy Bungiemas month everybody : = )

Pwned

Anyone else think Bungie should have made more bags? I'm not saying they should have 50,00 in stock or anything like that just maybe a couple thousand to ensure that those who stayed up and were dedicated got them. Also they would still obviously sell out and that would be more money for charity, so that would be good right?

They lost a lot of money off these Swag Bags as it is. I don't think they had enough swag and money to throw away on 2,000. It would have been great for everyone who stayed up to get one, got one, but that hasn't been how this was organized to begin with.

Mine still says shipping soon. They probably won't ship until Monday.

Unfortunately, even if these are for charity, the more bags they make means the more money they lose. They probably put a limit on themselves. Probably said "we'll make an initial 500, and if the demand is absurd we'll have 277 on backstock". Obviously the demand got absurd...

It sucks for those that worked hard and didn't get them, though. :/

Many of these bags have things that are very limited including rarely seen things from the past and studio memorabilia. I don't think they have thousands of this sort of stuff lying around. Bungie wants to give people the more unique things they can muster as a sort of parting gift for their loyal fans of Halo.

It's really cool that there giving to charity and all, but frankly as much of an -blam!- this might make me sound like I'd take more bags over them giving profits to charity. Or maybe even twice the number of bags and half the money goes to charity.

So I have yet to see an official statement on this:

Will they be canceling orders of multiple swag-bags? If so, will that person lose all of them or will they still get sent one? If your going to say yes, then please link the source.

In the heat of battle earlier, I couldn't get a legit response. Too many people upset.


Also wondering this.

IF more bags will be sold, and we get official confrimation that buying another will not cancel our orders, ill buy a second one.

I already own all rye books, most of the comics and stuff, so ill five away any odbthat stuff that comes in the bags to people who were not able to get one

CSKnight78, where are you located? Trying to judge if my swag will get here today or not.


Virginia. Also, forgot to mention, but I got a sweet pen that's master chief green, and has 117 written in yellow on it. :3

And as for the number, mine had the number 29 stiched on the inside. So yea, looks like they are numbered. Cooooooool!

A lot of people just had their order cancelled. Not sure if anyone just got one bag taken off their order.

When he was younger, he was the one who always had the jokes and riddles that would keep the spirits of the Spartans high. Over the years however, his lifetime of combat had hardened him, as it had all of the Spartans. Within Will, John thought, something special had been lost.

Still cleaning up yesterday's store issues. Updates not looking likely for this week. Set expectations closer to Bungie Day.

Awesome! Should be getting mine here in Colorado today then if they've already made it to Virginia.

Awesome to hear that they're numbered as well! Wonder who's going to get number 7?

I ordered mine yesterday, right now it's passed "Shipping Soon" and on "Ordered From Bungie Store". I also got a confirmation email (From the Bungie Store).

I should be good, right?

+1 Ditto.
