Silent Orbis Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 Okay, I'll just leave this discovery here. This is a screenshot of what I just saw... I have no idea what's going on here... NOTICE THE $99 PRICE TAG! As you can see... it's just as much as the Halo 4 LE, so it could be a LE, or just a glitch in the systems. We all know what the third possibility is... As Microsoft being the publisher, I wouldn't be surprised. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buns Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 Okok calm down man no need to be surprised, it is most likely just a glitch in the system or it could be the LE edition. Do you really think Microsoft is stupid enough to price a standard edition of the game this high? Next gen games are $60(or your regional equivalent) Microsoft would never dare hurt the sales of one of their best selling franchises like this I mean Sony and Microsoft already sell their consoles at a loss(Sony loses $60 for every PS4 bought) They make money on the software and services so pricing a standard edition of a game this high will only hurt them. Trust me Microsoft would never pull something like this(So the comment "Microsoft is the publisher I wouldn't be surprised" is quite off putting). It is most likely just a glitch in the Walmart systems which has happened before with places like Tesco or Target. My bet is that this is the LE edition of the game instead of SE Thanks for posting this though it makes me think that they are going to announce something soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sadly Just AL Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 It is most likely a special edition or the price set as a momentary place holder. The regular version is likely to be the regular 60 ish dollars like they are most of the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Intel Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 I agree with you guys. It can't be that expensive. I mean, we all know how much Microsoft want their money, but they wouldn't go that far. It's probably just a placeholder price like the cover.

Kazadure Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 dude it is a glitch next time before you post things like this check other sources such as amazon as it said £54 which isnt much different from dollars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaconShelf Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 Or maybe because it will not be out for at least another year and the £70 price is filler for the fact that the bloody price will not be announced until June earliest (Presuming it releases 2014 at all.) MS have stated that all X1 titles will be the standard £40 that they are now. You can go home people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any unusual prices are probably not the real price of the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upton889 Posted October 30, 2013 Report Share Posted October 30, 2013 No need to worry. I heard rumors months ago that the next gen games for Xbox One were going to be $100 (I was immediately skeptical), but the price will still be $60 for standard edition games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

мαттнєω Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 If I saw this too I would be like OMIGOSH xD. If it was that much I would have already bought it . Probably just a glitch or they messed up on the sales price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Of Harts Posted November 9, 2013 Report Share Posted November 9, 2013 Microsoft aren't that stupid. I think it's just a placeholder, as there are little-no details on the game yet. This was similar to Halo 4, there were preorder listings all over the place on eBay, on Amazon, etc. We don't even know if this is the official cover art, as with Halo 4 they didn't confirm it until a few months before the game's release.
