It's not just there, it's a standard pre-order bonus AFAIK.

At BB they have the pre-order cases out for this. The code is in the box so if you are looking to guarantee you have a code when the game releases it would be wise to pick one up for $5 down.
[quote name='ninja dog']Wtf, why wouldn't this be a standard vehicle in the game? hate this gen so much.[/QUOTE]
I don't mind this sort of thing much. I don't need a golden lancer or a flaming warthog. As long as there aren't gameplay advantages for spending more money on a limited edition or pre-ordering only.
Once we get to the point where it's "Buy the limited edition and your guns will do 50% more damage online!", then I'll quit.

MjC[/quote]We've already had that in a way.
Pre-ordering COD: WoW at GS gave you a in-game weapon 40+ levels in advance of you getting it normally in-game.
I think Battlefield: BC Gold Edition was the same way, with some in-game perk for getting the Gold edition. SC IV LE had something else in-game as well.

Right, but I'm still cool with that because someone who doesn't pay for it will catch up eventually if they put time into it. I meant a permanent advantage over anyone who doesn't pay extra. I would find that unacceptable.

Halo...limited edition...pre-order...$$$
They tricked me once with their gimmicks, ill wait until its a sub-$30 game before i buy. And am i the only one who is getting sick of digital bonuses, i want something tangible, not f'ing digital flames for a warthog.

no way. This is a warthog-- a very basic Halo vehicle. This is like offering Super Mario Bros. Special Edition with fire flower power ups put back in to the game.

Maybe I'm wrong about this, but I thought regular Warthogs were in the game regardless. The bonus is simply a paint job.

I Agree.
Anyone think this might be another OVER Produced Limited Edition just like Halo 3 was?

Well of course it will be, but it isn't $100+ and it isn't the huge price premium over the regular like Halo 3 was. Therefore there isn't as much potential for drop down the road.
That Halo 3 crap was in a league all by itself.
In this case, if you don't buy it, you're not only missing out on what looks to be a fairly cool package, you can't get the new Halo 3 maps as soon, which probably has some value to many. I think I've got that straight anyway.

Just this

I certainly hope so. I'm going to wait for it to drop. Anyone see how bad a rating it got on Gamespot? Eesh. Maybe they didn't pay anything unlike Kane and Lynch :nudge:

i'm hoping it is over produced. I want to get se of the game, but I don't want to spend anywhere near 80 bucks for it. I've been able to get most se for less than the standard edition by waiting a few weeks or so. The only one I haven't been succesful with is Fable II...I'm still waiting on the se of that one to go down in price on amazon or somewhere local.

[quote name='SuperJedi']Yes I am gonna wait. Take a gamble on this, I really want the LE, but I think it will be OVER Produced, once again.
Probably likely will see the LE on sale on Amazon.com or somewhere else by Black Friday, I think![/QUOTE]
And eesh! Black Friday is a long time to wait for this one. I don't know if I'm going to hold off that long! How much do you think I could sell the map pack and flaming warthog for?

100% agreed!
Digital downloads are lame. I mean, how much ACTUAL TIME or MANPOWER did it take to make this bonus? And that means I should pay the full $60 for this game?
Pass. I'll wait for this to drop down to $20ish. Considering how fast GTA4 dropped... this'll probably be there in about 6 months or less.
