Subject: Are there more bags? Please tell me there will be!

My name is Cameron. I've played Halo since the good old days of Halo 2. I play mostly shooters and rpg's. No I do not want to join your group, clan, guild, fan club etc. Check my profile for a link to my YouTube page.

I spent all day trying to get these, the past hour i was busy though and frustrated after hearing nothing from Bungie, is there still hope? =/

Eh.

Don't get so worked up over them.

Hooray for poor houses!

Damn straight

Am I the only one that it says they are still in stock for in the bungie store?

I think you just missed them. :( I wasn't informed if they were here or not, but I had just came home from an appointment. I went to the store and tried to buy, then it went through. From what I hear I just got lucky and snagged one of the last.

4 hours of constant refreshing you are in no place to say a thing to me about being worked up. I worked for these bags and got screwed by the Gorilla crap.

You wasted you 4 hours of your time.

Let's look at this critically for a second and realize that it's really nothing more than good marketing on Bungie's part. For $30 you can get a bag with some excess merchandise they had lying around. If you've seen the pics on gaf, you'd realize that it's really not worth the hassle/trouble.

Are you implying they crashed Amazon as part of "good marketing"? Thats a good one sir.

No.

Do you lack basic reading comprehension skills?

They put a bunch of excess merchandise in a bag, made it available in a limited quantity, and added the "random" factor of the contents of the bag to further entice people.

Good marketing.

Good marketing.
MY outrage stems from the Amazon and Gorrila issues. What you said has literally nothing to do what I am talking about. I understand the marketing aspect, Im pretty sure it was obvious to everyone. That doesnt mean I dont want one.

Also it goes to charity, so the marketing isnt gonna benefit them specifically.

Some Twitter confirmation that they're all out would be nice.

And if Amazon.com and the Bungie Store would stop lying about being "In Stock" that would be cool, too.

You've lost sight of MY original point, which was the you are getting worked up/wasting your time for something that ISN'T worth it.

Oh so what you are now implying is that because YOU dont feel it is worth the time, it isnt for me? Care to explain? This IS worth my time because it is something I would really enjoy to have.

Their last Tweet is only about the Gorilla Bags being real, and that they're confirming the mass amount of orders they just accumulated.
-_-

Why the hell did they do that Gorilla crap in the first place? That was what sparked the outrage! It looked so fake!

You'll enjoy to have for a few days, in a few months the stuff will probably be in your closet, and you will no longer really care anymore.

You can choose to completely turn a blind eye to what I'm saying. That's fine, just know that in retrospect, I'm ultimately in the right here.

What *really* happened is the amazon store front crashed. Bags O' Swags aren't gone, but we're holding until we get the go ahead.

No, you aren't. Maybe it would sit in your closet, but none of my Halo gear that I have purchased over the years is sitting in my closet. It has collector value and you obviously dont understand that, even though its quite simple.

So you're spending hours in front of your computer so you can purchase some Halo gear for it's "collector value"?

Oh boy.

This was before that last wave of bags we just had.
For all we know, they're fresh out of 'em for good.

You're sitting in front of your computer criticizing me. I think you're the one with the issue here. 30 bucks for Halo goodies? Hell thats better than what I got for the 60 bucks I spent on ODST. And the collector value thing isnt implying I plan to sell it or anything. Halo is my favorite game franchise and I love this kind of thing. 30 bucks isnt a huge deal. Neither is sitting in front of my laptop working to get a swag bag.

You about done? I've explained myself many times yet you continue to assume you're somehow "right" in your opinions.
