I realize that it may just be that only UK stores have announced it, but can somone from 343i confrim if that’s the case or not?
It’s not fair to us in other places to keep up waiting and not knowing if we should cancel our preorders and preorder at a another retailer.
The likelihood of something ACTUALLY being UK-only is so low I appreciate the change, and I’m not even from the UK.
In short: Don’t worry too hard, it’ll probably be available for you.

Hopefully.
I will not be bribed to pay over the odds at either game or gamestation which are both the same company. I do want that artbook though.

Im in england . But seeing as Halo is made in the US I think that it will be the same for shops in US im guessing you just need to wait for shops in US to say you can get it when you get CEA 
So there is going to be an artbook. I thought they said no to that during E3. I can has artbook?
I will now definitely pre-order it at gamestop or amazon in germany if they have this bonus
you’ve got to be kidding me, im from ireland so anything thats UK only comes to us 2, and you Americans have no right to complain as there is a ridiculous amount of stuff that is US only not just in games, now dont get me wrong I dont hate America or Americans (except your kids(whiny yoink!ers)) infact I plan on moving there once I finish my game development course in college but seriously you guys have absolutely no right to complain if something is UK only.

And what about other countries like Spain which are always behind? Why has anyone to have exclusives in the first place?!
Finally it’s not US only. FOR ONCE!
Don’t complain too much, we have to pay £34.99 ($56.91) for the game while you guys pay $39.99 (£24.58). Feel for us.

And 39,99 € when it should be 27 €, and when we pay 60 € for normal games it should be 41 €, Yoink publishers…
Absolute travesty, isn’t it?
I want to clarify this: The Halo: CEA Artbook pre-order bonus is just a small preview of the real book. The real book will come out in the USA of course. You can even pre-order it at
Amazon.com and every other book/videogame retailer. The only bonus is that you just get a 24-page preview of the book after the official book comes out. So if you like the art of Halo, you will have the full artbook already before you get the preview. Otherwise the limited edition was advertised at HaloFest and is pre-orderable now.

That’s not the point: It should be availbe for everybody. And really, you guys in the UK, austriala, or wherever else should be complaing and potesting about the price. Does the Bungie store ship internationally? It shows up as 39.99 there, so once it’s out you should be able to get it there that way.
It better not be UK-exclusive, considering even Americans and Canadians don’t have Theater mode in Anniversary, and THEREFORE CAN’T TAKE PRETTY PICTURES. >:(

Lol’d.
I haven’t read this whole thread, but the possibility that some fellow Halo fans in the UK can have access to something we in the US don’t…I say why not? We Americans first get to pay less for the game. Why not give the Brits something extra for paying more. (By the way I looked up if Brits was derogatory and couldn’t find an answer one way or the other, if it is I apologize and it will never happen again).
I hope it is true, and good for you in the UK!

That was a hauntingly polite post.
Sorry, I’m still getting used to not seeing trolls. >__>

I have seen dozens of products released only in the uk or in the uk first, just cause halo isn’t one of them doesnt mean it isn’t true.

Take into consideration that our prices don’t show tax until we buy it while theirs does already, something we buy that is 10$ can be 12$ were if they buy something it is what it says on the rack and nothing more. Also I’m pretty sure anything more would just be the fact that their taxes are higher, Microsoft doesn’t make any more profit off them than america. Anyway keeping a product exclusive to a country is stupid, they want to make money so sell it to as many as possible.
