UK gamers can get a steel game case MCC if they pre-order Halo: MCC from GAME. Other bonuses are Multiplayer Map book and Grunt Funeral.

Exclusive content is beyond retarded. Everyone is paying the same price for the game, give them all the same experience. Of course the physical stuff like artbooks, statues, and that kind of stuff is pretty cool. Pay extra money and get a nice bonus, but exclusive in game content is idiotic and nobody should ever support it, which we can easily do by not pre-ordering shit.

I'm OK with some of it. I thought the way Bungie handled the Legendary armor effect in Reach was nice; just a little something extra for the hardcore fans (or those with extra money).

But I agree; these bonus skulls (and the skins/weapons for Halo 4) are irritating.

Nice to see the UK getting something for once.

However, exclusive content is always a bad thing.

I'm cool with preorder bonuses and unlocks in game if they have NO effect on gameplay.

Like weapon skins or armor. Thats all good. But when you start unlocking weapons and perks, thats when the game sucks dick. ex: Halo 4.

343i's business tactics are beyond stupid.

Does anyone remember the days when the only time you got some exclusive content was when you paid a little extra for that statue or artbook?

This is why I loved games like Darksouls 2, there was digital content but you could only get it if you got a certain edition of the game, that certain edition was available almost everywhere and the content was only early access.

I was told that it was a timed exclusive and that all players will get the special preorder skulls eventually.

Which should be the case for game-changing items.

Everything seems cool minus the exclusive skulls. Unless they do what New Vegas did, and make all of the Pre-order bonuses available for everyone with a small payment later on.

It'll be available for everyone in mid-December and for free
