Halo 3 ODST and Dead Rising 2 Cheap as Chips!

Written Wednesday, June 17, 2009 by Dan Webb

So remember the whole "who-haa" regarding the price for the upcoming Halo 3: ODST title? You know, the whole, "it'll be value," "yada yada," "it'll now be full price."

Well UK retailer Argos currently has the title listed for £26.99 including delivery ... which effectively makes it a budget title for the UK folk. Fancy that!

More.

In the same vein of the Halo 3: ODST price bargain for the UK we posted earlier, we've got another one for you that's equally, if not as good as it. Again, this is a UK store, so sorry for the rest of the world users out there today - the UK just seems to be on a bit of a roll.
It seems as if Tesco's online entertainment section is listing Dead Rising 2 for the low, low price of £27.96, which like ODST, effectively makes it a budget title. If it's anywhere near as good as the original, then it's a steal at that price.

Pre-Order Dead Rising 2 from Tesco.com for £27.96

In other slightly related news, it appears that all the online UK retailers are marking the title up for a September 25th release in Europe. Whilst we don't generally listen to retailer listings (I mean, Play.com has Hei$t listed for release next week!), this time we might be inclined to listen. Why? Because they all seem to be reporting the same date, and also, they must get their information from somewhere. Either way, it didn't hurt to bring it to your attention.

Hallo

Pre Order ODST to Get Johnson as Playable Firefight Character
Written Thursday, June 18, 2009 by Dan Webb

Microsoft just announced that those who pre-order Halo 3: ODST from participating retailers will get Sgt. Johnson as a playable character in the Firefight mode found within the upcoming title.

What's Firefight you ask? Microsoft explains it as ...
"Firefight will put you to the test as you and your friends assume the role of an ODST squad and fight together to take on increasingly challenging waves of enemies. It’s where new “Halo” heroes will be born, and an opportunity to step into the boots of a legend."
We just say "horde."

I can just see it now ... a ton of Johnson's running around killing Covenant shouting "die you maggot!"

For those in the UK who preordered from the heads up regarding the cheap Argos price yesterday, I somehow doubt that you'll be getting this. Either way, which would you prefer, £13 in your back pocket, or a Sgt Johnson character in Firefight that you won't be able to see. I'm guessing the cash.
