If i have read it correctly the halo 5 xbox one console comes with the limited edition only difference is the game is digital does anyone know if that digital code i can put in same place as the collectors edition and get microsoft to send out a physical copy ?

no, only in the colecctors edition

If It’s True, That’s Ridiculous, If They Offer The LCE They Should Offer It For The Xbox Bundle, I Personally Don’t Have Good Internet To Download The Whole Game Online, AL Be Waiting For Days To Download It, We Should Have The Choice, 343i Got HUGE Backlash Because Of The Same Thing With The Halo 5 LCE, But If They Dont Allow This For The Console Bundle, Especially Since We’re Paying Double Then The Ppl Paying For The LCE, It’s Unfair N Injust.

The problem is, you either download off of a disk or the internet. So either way your HD will have a 50 gb game stored on it. I don’t believe the Xbone technically plays games off of disks, it’s more just a launch program to launch the digitally stored game. So would you rather install a 50 gb game for two days using internet and have it ready for midnight on the 27th or would you rather put in a disk at 1 in the morning and start installing a 50 GB game to be able to play at 2:30 am on the 27th?

Since U Put It Like That, I Will BE Going To A Frend Of mine And Boroow His Internet Lol, Still Ppl Should Have A Choice Wince Ppl Were Backlash in 343i For A 250$ Copy, And Not For A 500$Copy, But I See Ur Point

I’m waiting for that Halo Edition Xbox for 2 years too and it could be great to have the possibility to exchange the download code for a real disc like in the collector edition. It’s way better to have a halo 5 steelbook with a real disk and not just a code. I already have all halo games in a real box with discs in my collection and i want to continue like this. How is it possible to purchase the base game 69$ or the limited edition 99$ and have a disk but when you purchase the collector edition for 249$ or the console limited edition for 499$ (which have the same content of the limited edition at 99$) you don’t have one?

For me it’s inacceptable to see the forza edition console pack at 399$ and the halo console pack at 499$ without kinect but an empty steelbook in it.
How can i use it? If i get a limited steelbook of a game it’s to put the disc of that game in it, not to only have a tiny piece of paper with a code on it inside.
Yes i say that and even more, mostly when we sees that the content of the pack is exactly the same of the limited edition at 99$(goodies and others but now without the disc).
For 499$ i can purchase the halo 5 limited edition game(99$) and a forza limited edition xbox(399$).
Same result : 1 xbox with 1To Hdd (but forza not halo) + halo 5 limited edition + an other game(Forza).
I think that for 100$ more than the forza edition, a disc in the pack isn’t too much to ask for …

And, if it’s impossible to ask microsoft or 343i for a disc, can you explain me why is it impossible and where theses 100$ more went in the pack?

I still dont understand the problem, all XBO bundled games are digital. All Wii U games are digital. most PS4 bundles are digital…

The Problem Is they Are Forcing Digital On Ppl, Even after They Got HUGE Backlash For the Same Thing On THE Collected Edition, But When Your Paying Double That +Taxes The Ppl Deserve A Option, Not Everyone Has Good internet To Download A Huge Game.

I Personally a don’t Want To Be Waiting for Days To Download This Game Via Internet, When I Could Install It In The Disc For A couple Of Hours.

You guys know you have to download games either way, right? So you either have a 60 gb digital game installed, or a 60 gb game installed that can only be triggered when the disk is in the tray. The xbone runs a digital copy of the game, otherwise load times would be terrible because Blu-ray is really slow. The disk is literally just a fragile trigger that tells the console to boot up the digital copy of the game.

Yea… disk downloads faster I guess cuz no mandatory digital download off of xbox live which is sooo slow even with updates might as well keep instant on.

> Even after They Got HUGE Backlash For the Same Thing On THE Collected Edition, Apples to oranges. Collector editions for games should always come with a physical copy by default. But a console doesnt need to come more than the basic. Once again, almost every bundle does it nowadays. Even the 3ds/2ds.
> But When Your Paying Double That +Taxes The Ppl Deserve A Option, You’re not paying double. The 1tb xbox (which this a custom edition of) is $400, that’s a $100 difference plus it’s the LE of the game. Unless your comparing it to the LCE of the game, in which case apples to oranges its a console LE bundle not a special edition version for a game.

Plus your wallet speaks louder than words. If it upsets you this much, don’t buy it.

That’s Not The Point, Don’t See It As One Person, But Alot Of Ppl Who are Buying The Console Edition, Deserve The Same Thing They Are Offering The Collected Edition. Basically By U Saying Just Don’t Buy It, Means U Want Company’s That Dont Offer a Fair Choice , And That They Should Get Away With It , Check the Backlash Ppl Were Giving 343i For The Collecter Edition, Well Uhhhh Just Don’t Buy It If You Don’t Like It. What If A Halo Game Came Out Like Destiny U Bought The Game, But Only To Have The Story Cut Here N There Oh But We’ll If You Don’t Like It Dont Buy. You And A Bunch Of Ppl Will Probably Still Buy Cuzz It’s Halo Then Start Being Mad About It , then To Hear Someone Just Say Well U Shouldn’t Have Of Bought If U Didn’t Like Because U Will Still Probably End Up Buying A Product. Also Ur Basically Saying This, Hey Everyone Who Pre-ordered the Collecter Edition Ur Paying 250$ For Something That Should Have A Choice But Ur Gonna Take It Anyway,U Know Why Cuzz We Don’t Care About Ur Feedback ( Luckily Not The Case For the Collecter Edition) , We Don’t Care If Ur Are Not Satisfied Cuzz We Still Meet Our Goals (Not The Case In Halo,343i listens to our feedback) So there’s Certain Advantages Of Installing From The Internet Rather Then The Disks So What! Not Everyone Has Great Internet like U Might Have So Is Not A Problem For U And It Must’ve Be a Problem For Everyone Else. It’s Your Way Of Thinking That We Should Either Take It Or Simply Dont Buy It . I’VE waited Along Time For THE Halo Xbox One So I Will Still Buy It, But I Would Like To See The Consumers Of Diffrency Variations Of A Company’s Product Be Fair To Everyone.
Ik I’m Making a Big Deal Of It, Because Everyone One Steps Up For A Diffrent Edition Of It, But When They See The Same Thing To Others, they’re Just Like “Oh well I Got Mine Like I Wanted, Yoink The Others”

I know, ALL Xbox one bundles are digital… just because its Halo doesn’t mean anything.

I don’t understand why people are crying about it either…

You can’t return a digital game in case those get upset off their purchase and to have an actual disk with case and stuffs some people like collecting.

True, but the console is a “limited” edition bundle though… not a “collectors” edition…
There’s the LCE, so I can understand physical copy for that…

Also True, But The LCE Didn’t Have A Physical Untill Ppl Started Lashing At 343i,Still Doesn’t Actually Have It ,You Have To “Trade” The Code At Retail Then U Get It. In That Case Why Cant they Do The same With the Console, Since It Also Has The Steel Case With No Physical Copy

I agree, idk how the “trade” process will work, how will they know your Digital Copy came from the LCE or Console ?
For all we know the process might allow for both to be traded for physical copies…
Either way, I prefer digital copy

None of those bundles give you a collectors case to put the disk in. The console edition should have just been the base game and the console.
