So yeah, there are plenty of games and stuff that look really amazing then you hear something about them and suddenly think: Not getting that any more...

Like ( I know this is a while back and it's only my opinion) Halo: ODST lost my buy because it didnt even have a different multiplayer

Anyway, what games (or DLC or whatever) have lost your buy?

Halo: ODST had Firefight - that is a different multiplayer mode. Glad you did your research.

I've never not purchased a game because of one thing, eventually, it could grow on you.

ODST was AWESOME! Graphics were so much cooler than Halo 3. Just wish it was longer, but who doesn't?! Also I'll be playing Reach Beta and I have a feeling you won't be...

You know I've never really been that into halo since the second one but I have been tempted to get ODST, if even just for the Reach beta. Reach seems like it's going back to the roots of what made the first Halo awesome.

There have been plenty of games that I didn't buy or only bought used because there was something I didn't like. I'll never buy an online only game. I don't buy games where I felt that there shouldn't have been a sequel (i.e. Bioshock 2). I refuse to buy games new when they don't have subtitles.

I'd say the MW2 Stimulus Package. 5 maps and a few new multiplayer things is good and all, but $15 is way too much.

The length of the game and re-playability affects what I buy. Saw looked like a decent game but it's only around what 8 hours? That's a bargain bin purchase.

Ubisoft new DRM for all PC titles means I won't buy any of their games for PC. Instead if I want the game I will wait a while and pick it up preowned on console. Atleast that way I get to play the game, and none of my purchase goes back to Ubisoft.

Please explain what was so great about ODST. Man I loved the first Halo, and the second also. The third was just a repeat with a few additions and a bit better multiplayer. Now ODST, is a remake of a repeat. They should have stopped at 3, it was suppose to just be a triology after all - now they are at the "milking" stage. Telling someone to go buy it now is a waste, considering how soon till Reach comes out.

I'm pretty sure his "pride" is not stopping him from buying the game, it's the fact that he doesn't want it. I had it, and sold it. Used the extra cash to chip in toward a game I'll actually enjoy playing (DA:O)

I really hope Reach is slightly appealing. I won't be pre ordering like I did with 1-3 though...

yeah what they did is crazy because its not stopping anybody from pirating and they are screwing over their legit customers. Def not a smart route to take. They seem to have alot of server issues too which makes it 100 times worse.

Like others have said, the Stimulus Package. If they had made it 800 MS points it would have been an easy buy for me. 3 new maps and two great ones from the first game? count me in. But 1200 points is a bit steep for this considering I have never seen a map pack that expensive. Also, Fable 2's see the future. While I plan to get it eventually I keep putting it off because it has such an awkward price (560) that I'll have straggler points that I have nothing to spend on since most things are even (400, 800, 1200, etc. points)

O.K..(spoiler allert).. I'll explain myself just for you as you were polite enough to say please..

lol..

Like I said; If he's a Halo fan; he'll probably love it..

First of all lets take into consideration that just because you wasn't all that impressed with certain aspects from the last couple of titles; it certainly doesn't mean everyone else wasn't.. As your well aware; this weird and wonderful world of ours is made up of millions and billions of individuals.. All with individual likes and dislikes..

Personally I thought the game was really good due to Bungie letting the player learn more concerning the invasion of 'Mombassa' from the second title.. O.K.. some gamers like yourself thought it was a step back; but personally I thought it was a step in the right direction.. But that's just my opinion; hopefully you'll resoect it; just as I respect your opinion..

I also found it quite appealing having to hunt down the recorded radio transmissions/phone calls ect left behind by the Mombassa escapee (Apologies for forgetting her name) 'The female that was trying to find her father'..

Playing through the campaign as various O.D.S.T; was also particular interesting; as the Halo universe certainly had an unusual look visually due to the O.D.S.T's Hudd.. Hence the evening combat.. Bungies introduction to the new alien race I found was a pleasant suprise also..

As we all know;; the Halo franchise is well known for action.. O.D.S.T. was no exception.. Many gamers weren't happy concerning the length of this particular title.. But personally I always get far more hours out of the typical shorter single player campaigns than most.. due to being the type of gamer who enjoys exploration; exploration and more exploration.. So for myself; this particular title was quite long ! believe it or not !!.... Could'nt tell you precisley the amount of hours I knocked up whilst playing through the single player campaign, but it was certainly more than what was discussed within the typical reviews found upon site like this..

O.K; your pretty sure that the postee's pride isn't stopping him from purchasing the game, but surely it would be a shame to miss such a title, simply due to the fact that it does'nt contain multiplayer ?!..

As 'most' gamers know; Firefight made up for that.. Not to mention the additional BETA for Reach.

Heh, the reach Beta key was pretty much the onyl reason that I bought ODST! But the game that lost my buy was bioshock. i know its popular and im in the minority, but I just didnt enjoy it as much as I hd hoped, and there wasnt much MP to speak of. Though I hear that the new one has pretty good MP...

Oh okay that fine, I guess. But still I usually look at achievements for replayability, I guess it's just the way I play >_> That and I heard that the first add-on for ACII wasn't that great. But I did hear that the second one was amazing.
