Halo 3 ODST Price Drop Skyrockets the game to top of Bestsellers list

As half of the world probabaly already knows, Halo 3: ODST hit store shelves this week in North America. The game has sold tremendous amounts since then, but now we are seeing retailers start to drop the price of the game, which has skyrocketed the game up to #1 in the bestsellers.

Amazon.com has dropped the price of the game to $50.99, almost $10 off. It is definitely odd to see retailers doing a price drop this early, but for as big of a franchise as Halo is, it will only boost sales. Now, you’re thinking about buying the game, but what about if Amazon said that when you buy ODST from them, they will give you $10 to your next gaming purchase? Crazy, I think fucking so.

OMG: Halo 3: ODST Is Getting a Feature-Length Commercial!

In case you couldn’t detect the sarcasm that was present in the title of this post, I’m sure that this news really deserves a full post. Honestly though, just in case anybody out there cares, I’ll be sure to divulge all of the details.

So in the UK, the FX channel will be getting a 2min 30 long footage of the game in commercial form this evening. Want the exact time? It will first play at 23.41 during “True Blood” and kicks off an exclusive Halo 3: ODST sponsorship of the FX Channel commencing 18th September.

So any of you in the UK that care, get on your TV’s and stayed glued to them until this comes on, or you’re not a hardcore gamer.
