also, those who say $60 is too much...

trade in halo 3.

suddenly ODST costs $35. you still have the multiplayer, and you don't have to cry anymore.

haha dont get me wrong, i think its a dumb marketing move and I work in the industry.

Like I said if I were the account executive for this game's campaign I would definitely look for alternative rewards. I was simply pointing out how the marketing team was (no-doubt) thinking.
welcome to the world of advertising. in this case its a sales promotion where the game developer worked with the retailers to provide an incentive and reward for consumers, effectively making a win-win-win situation.

retailers: gets pre-orders
developer: gets confirmed sales
consumer: gets rewarded with early demo for taking initiative.

youll still have your chance to demo it next wednesday... which is still plenty of time before the game comes out.

Yes, they probably could've come up with a different incentive but it probably wouldve turned into an in-game item that nobody used anyway.
this made me "lol"...

and when i did i farted.
poop breaks CONFIRMED for splinter cell conviction
are you bringing any fruits or vegetables on your trip?
yeah, cool people quote nonfictional sci-fi tv shows.
deepfried, i didnt mean to hurt your feelings by pointing out people who need girlfriends.

im actually pretty happy that ill never accomplish anything like that.

why would i wish that i could make a simpsons themed rube goldberg machine in a videogame.

I mean, i applaud the guy for the accomplishment... but its just not something I would ever be proud of.

it was a playful joke. take your nerd-rage somewhere else. feel free to respond but I am done here.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
