    This really makes me angry. It might be “convenient” or something, but no one should have to pay $1250 for the privilege to review something. Reviews generate free advertising, Microsoft should be giving this to media outlets for free.

    I hope no one pays for this… it is just not right.

    The way i understand it, the price is just set that way to prevent your average user from using points to download it. Reviewers get sent a code to use to download it.

    Maybe Christian Zibreg should do a bit of research before villainizing Microsoft and making the people who are STEALING the game sound like they’re in the right. The reviewers aren’t paying 1250.00 for this game, they are being sent codes to download it. Microsoft has to slap the point value on there because it’s how their site works.

    Try using the internet for something more constructive than posting flat out lies.

    I would laugh if someone actually paid $1250 and then started complaining on Gamefaqs or another game site about how it wasn’t worth the price

  • dont get it

    If they only wanted reviewers n stuff to get it, and there sending them codes to download it, why dont they make it a privet download, like stg. johnson for ODST and the honor guard wrath in halo wars, you cant find them.

    very stupid…

    Johnson was up for download the same way. Although I think he might have only had a 9999 MS Point price tag on him.

    I think you all complaining about it is silly. First of all, this is the full game including both Campaign and Multiplayer.
    Microsoft messed up, its their bad, its on their head. Haven’t we all learned, nothing on the Internet is “Private”.

    Ehm… you’ve got a couple of comments explaining how MS’s marketplace works and you still didn’t rectify your article?

    I’ll explain again: MS has certain items on the marpetplace that they don’t want everyone to download. They slap a price of 99999 on it and hide it from public vision. They hand out codes so only those with a code can download.

    Do your research before you write stuff like this.
