If I pre-order Halo Reach, will I be guaranteed these items:

Like if I pre-order it tomorrow? Or will there be only a 50% chance that I will get it? Because it says, "While supplies last."

Oh. So if I pre-ordered it, there is a chance that they will end up charging me the massive amounts of money and not giving me the bonus items? Because I am pre-ordering the Legendary Edition.

Wait, so all of those armour variants, for the normal Reach, Limited Edition Reach, AND Legendary Reach are not like Crackdown 2? Because for Crackdown 2, I totally got ripped off, but it was at Best Buy, so I am still giving Gamestop a chance. For Crackdown 2, they said the codes were "outside" the box AFTER I had already paid the "lay-away" and was already picking up the game in the store. Sorry if I am asking a repetitive question, because that is not my aim. I am just trying to be 100% sure before I spend my money on a pre-order (have to use my parent's credit card vs just paying cash and buying it myself if it was already released). Especially a pre-order like a Halo Legendary Edition. =P

I don't think so. I don't think it's even supposed to be a legit pre-order bonus. I'm pretty sure it's a bonus for picking up the game on day one. My suggestion would be to pick the game up as early as possible. There will probably plenty of codes but I wouldn't take my chances.

I see what you're saying now. Gamestop were giving out God of War 3 exclusive armor/skin when you pre-order the regular edition and up. If you pre-order it late, like in the last 1-2 weeks.. then you might not have gotten one. Is your question pertaining to something like this? I think with Halo Reach, you wouldn't have to worry about anything like this at all.

Yes. That is what I am referring to. But the thing is, I am not waiting until the last weeks. I would like to pre-order tomorrow. I just want to make sure that if I pre-order "tomorrow" though, that I am not in the back of the list, and that my chances at the code are not below 100%. Because seriously, the sole reason for me pre-ordering this game, instead of waiting for 6 months (I am going on to McGill on August 23rd, and will not come back until January 1st), is the bonus items.

I think it's safe to say that Halo Reach will come with a DLC card like Alan Wake's "The Signal" DLC. I can reassure you even more that if you order the Legendary Edition, you are pretty much guaranteed the same. I'd be surprised to see Gamestop employees passing out that paper DLC code (flyer-like) things again like they did with God of War 3. Anyone could just pre-order the game, get the coupon code, and then refund the pre-order.

Wait, what is this Amazon like? They include in their description that they can terminate the offer at any time. Also, they do not have the Mark V MJOLNIR bonus. They just have a $20 card....
