Agreeing with uberfoop (Destiny)

Nah. They seemed to do just fine for the previous decade of Halo games they made with all of the marketing.

Dude... things change.

AT&T was doing just fine in the 60s with wired phone service to houses... and yet that's a tiny fraction of their business today.

Things do change. You scoffed at the "plenty of ways" statement. They had plenty of ways then, and there are still plenty of ways now that don't involve gameplay changing exclusives.

Why are you taking this like a personal attack from Bungie on you, when it's just a sign of how marketing has evolved in the past decade? Things change. Deal with it.

So pete makes a thread, others agree, and others still after the disclaimer still aren't too thrilled at the thought. That becomes a personal attack on people... how? Bungie's not going after anyone. That doesn't mean that the pre-order decision doesn't suck (in my opinion). I feel the issue is the response to the concerns. Pete makes a post, he's a whiner and a debbie downer and so is anyone agreeing with him. Lame reaction to someone who doesn't like something (even if that something is "small" or "exclusive for a limited time").
