All of Halo's Preorder Bonuses: Are They Worth It?

In this video, we take a look at everything included in the pre order releases of Halo titles, and judge whether or not the preemptive purchase is worth a gamble on the quality of the resultant experience.
Enjoy.

[@OnyxLeviathan]

A few have pointed out how this video mostly goes over limited versions of the games on release, which is true. However, since a lot of these limited editions were in such low number as to be bought out by release night, I've decided to keep them described as preorder bonuses. As such, I will leave them as described.

[@Godzilla_Cheeze]

Wdym?

[@mathewmartin6959]

@@Godzilla_Cheeze Halo Wars' pre-order bonus through Gamestop was the Fireball Warthog skin. Instead of mentioning the bonus, the entire Limited Edition was showcased. Nothing wrong with that, but not talking about the actual pre-order bonuses does validate the pinned comment so "Ackshually" nerds don't overtake the comments.

I think a retitle is deserved I don’t see the blow up energy sword or beanie I got for pre ordering halo reach and going to the launch, collectors editions are different priced things not free bonuses

[@MrDaDukee]

I had been working all summer to earn up to a 360, with halo 3 as my ultimate goal. Then the day came and I called ahead to the GAME store, asking if they had everything in and asked my mom to give me a ride. But it had been a mistake in their store lists and they didn't have any standard editions in of halo. Clerk took pity on me and went "well we do have a legendary edition we just aren't getting sold... how about we write it off as a standard ed?" So I got legendary edition for half price roughly, still have in proudly in my shelf.

[@OnyxLeviathan]

That’s awesome! I’m glad that happened for you.

[@xXblazmodzXx]

That is absolutely heartwarming.. I hope nothing ended up happening to him as a result for giving away such an expensive product at such a huge discount, but my god that is seriously so sweet, and I love that. Legendary indeed ♥

[@AngryWildMango]

nice! I sold all my gamecube and PS2 stuff at gamestop to get it XD I have gotten back most of the ps2 stuff recently. bu it was not worth selling. I remember getting 50c for so many games. but when my halo 3 got a grinded ring from the 360. the same Gamestop did just give me a new disk.

[@JorganVonDangle]

That’s awesome man. I remember one time I went to a midnight release of one of the ghost recon games and I was pretty much the only one in line. The clerk must have thought it was cool because he gave me one of those massive 6 foot promotional posters.

[@GTAwesome]

Sounds like the Clerk was a true Spartan!

[@Nacalal]

Man I remember walking home from class one day to see my parents had bought me the collectors edition for halo 2, that was the highlight of the year. I had never seen a game come in a metal case before, stick sticks with me how cool it was at the time. I also remember having the legendary edition for reach, it was the coolest thing opening it and finding all those bits of lore and stuff.

[@OnyxLeviathan]

Yeah! They were super fun, especially when no one had access yet so each person dove into the new stuff at once.

[@CoreyandCrew]

Yes I had the reach statue and shit

[@hm-mt3wj]

The book was the best

[@CoreyandCrew]

@@hm-mt3wj yea I remember being a kid and feeling like the world was so real. Having the diary of Halsey with the blood on the last page and stuff. We used it as a prop in our games outside. Too bad it was harder to come buy Halo guns and helmets for kids than it is today. I have a few energy swords and a needler I got from Walmart. I like that Halo has lived so long. The way things are going with infinite is good. A lot of negative stuff about progression and microtransactions, but thats how you know a game is good. when the problems we have are so easily fixed. I am confident in the future of our game friends.

[@deth_boi3284]

I have the Halo 2 limited collectors edition. Got it for around 7 bucks lol. It’s in good shape. This thing isn’t expensive in general, so if you want a collectors edition, this is a good one for its price.

[@OnyxLeviathan]

Agreed. You can find them in second hand stores fairly often.

[@jflamen]

Is there anywhere online that it could be found, or is it just something you would have to come across at a second hand store like the comment above me said?

I would still play Halo CE, 2, and 3 at my friend's house though and I remember the day he called me and told me I should come over as soon as I could, which he revealed that he had gotten Halo 3 the first day it was out.

Reach's Halsey journal was incredible and Halo Wars Genesis included with the collectors edition was also great. Halseys journal though isn't even like just good , it's necessary.

[@mr_w1nderful]

The only thing I regret is not being old enough to have understood the value of pre-ordering the limited/legendary editions for Halo back then. Then again I was only a few years old when Halo: CE and Halo 2 came out. I didn’t actually start pre-ordering until Halo Reach.

I’ve made my own Legendary edition at the moment with the Halo console and Elite series 2 :) really loving them both right now, never had an Elite controller before, I really wish it had a share/save clip button though.

We got to keep midnight releases alive guys. Seriously nothing is more fun than bullshiting around with people anxiously waiting for the doors to open at midnight and get the new game. I went to Halo 3 and Reach midnight releases and there was something about being up late, no school that day and getting home at 1 am to slap the new disk into your Xbox 360 and play the campaign then multiplayer till sun came up and all day. It was glorious.

Man I never realized I had the limited collectors edition of halo 2

[@Spacejockey426]

I bought the Heroic Edition of Halo: Reach from Amazon a number of years after it's release. There was an issue with the packaging at delivery, so I complained and was given a discount, which dropped the total price I paid to slightly less than $20! This originally retailed for $80, and it stands as the best deal I have ever gotten as far as video games go - the contents of the ONI module were definitely worth the $80, and the games was great to boot! I got the Halo 5 Guardian Metal Earth kit from eBay, and I am still in the process of building it (I've built over 20 of their kits, including Master Chief's helmet, the Warthog, and Pelican Dropship [half complete]). Great review, very comprehensive!

[@Powers3rg]

That's awsome that your dad let you skip school to play Halo. My mom took me at midnight to Blockbuster to get Gears of War on a school night. She knew it was a big deal to me and it's something I will never forget.

As a kid my dad worked tirelessly to get the limited editions of each halo - often from ebay since I was born in 99. He wanted to make sure I had everything I'd ever wanted from this universe that sucked me in. I'm so grateful - I've read halseys journal countless times, and the halo 3 helmet is still my prized possession. I had completely forgotten about a lot of these items and seeing them again was a flood of nostalgia, I cant believe child me didn't have the foresight to look after some of these. Thank you for this video

I remember when I got my copy of halo reach. It was when the game released (I believe during September). I was visiting my dads one weekend and noticed that one of my older step-brothers was missing (actually now that I think about it, it probably was release night) and I was just told that he would be back later. Well what does a 10 year old do on the weekend? Stay up ridiculously late, because at 1 in the morning in came the missing step-brother with a GameStop bag he hands me the bag saying “merry early Christmas and happy early birthday have fun.” I opened the bag and in it sat the standard edition of Halo Reach. My first Halo game that was truly mine. My older brother (another brother) and I stayed up even further and beat the game that night. I still have my original copy but ever since I first saw the legendary edition with those statues I’ve always wanted it.. I’m debating on getting it for my 23rd birthday just for those statues

[@Tanubi]

Love the video, very informative but I think it's worth noting that the term “Pre-order bonuses” is a little wrong here. Editions and content that comes with them are not pre-order bonuses, just edition content. Usually these things are meant to be available in limited quantities even after pre-orders. It's also worth pointing out for anyone trying to pick up Halo 3 Legendary edition, it does not come with the steel box of the limited edition. Two black plastic dvd cases and that's it with a disc in each and that's it. The pre-order bonuses from bad memory are, HR- Recon helmet variant - UA chest variant HW - Honour Wraith - Flaming Warthog HODST - Johnson H4 - Weapon Skins and emblems, think maybe armour variants. H5 - Think emblems and couple armour variants. Think that's everything. Just extra information for any collector who drops by looking to gather information. Reach Legendary edition is best in terms of edition content and sadly H4 is best for pre-order bonuses as it had 4 when I ordered mine. These all became available in the not deserved GOTY edition later on.

Funny how a game's Legendary Edition back then had a full on Helmet display piece, a load of interesting lore documents with beautiful illustration, Lengthy and interesting making-off footage, a nice poster to show off and a cool cover for the game's discs (Also with some in game bonus). Now for a similar price tag, you don't even own the game and there's nothing physical whatsoever. Meaning the game goes offline, you lose any bonus you paid for.

Infinite had a preorder bonus as well with GameStop, a limited edition UNSC dog tag, I forgot to pre order Infinite but I did order the steelbook edition later on. Eventually someone donated their UNSC dogtags to goodwill and I bought them, they came unopened, so I have yet to wear them. Halo 4 I pre ordered the limited edition to go along with my Halo 4 edition 360S, and Halo 3’s steelbook edition to go with my Halo 3 edition 360. Halo 2’s steelbook edition I would eventually acquire to accompany my Halo 2 “edition” OG Xbox; yes the ridiculously hard to find Blue Xbox that was sold exclusively in Canada.

I spilled something on my genesis booklet years ago, it was one of my favorite pieces of video game memorabelia

I got the arbiter and chief poster when I got the normal halo 3 at a local game store when I was little. It was the first Game I bought with my own money. I have it framed on my wall.

Nice! Yeah, it comes with the reg edition but also came with the legendary, so I included it. Such a neat little bonus.

My dad and I was huge Halo fans when Halo reach came out I thought we was just gonna get the normal pre order but he came back with the legendary edition and was blown away

Still got my Halo 3 Legendary edition from Launch, along with Reach's and 4's limited editions. Still looks awesome. Got Halo 5's steelbook from the Xbox One edition. Out of all of those though, I still wish I got Reach's legendary édition. That statue looks awesome.

ODST collector's edition also came with an awesome remote.

[@Heveric]

I got the Legendary edition of Halo 3 and the Limited edition of Reach, it was all I could afford at the time when Reach was getting released but both were certainly a worthy purchase. Limited edition of Halo Wars was nice too, I completely forgot about the coaster since I had been in need of a new drink coaster lately.

I have every Halo le console; Halo 4 360 s, the Halo 5 one, and the Infinite for the Series X. I collect those and the controllers just not the pre orders. They definitely would look cool in my game room though. One thing I miss that's never coming back is midnight releases. Man that was just always a great time for a Halo release

[@yoshionthego]

I originally got halo five limited edition because I wanted the physical disc. Just a year later Best Buy was having a flash sale of the legendary edition for $60 so I jumped on that immediately and ended up with both.
