343i has made the choices simpler this time. Two editions. Standard and Limited.

Looks like I'll be spending less, and getting more through the Limited Edition.yes

Sounds like E3 is going to feature huge Halo 4 news.

I like they are including map packs in the Limited Edition. I might actually pony-up the extra funds as it sounds like a nice bang-for-the-buck.

You should know from E3 releases, if not sooner.

I was really confused at your reply, then I realized what you said. Doh! Another person who is on my avoid bugging list.

A new console, hmmm? I may have to get one and give my Reach console to my kids, theirs is on the fritz anyway...

 

Regardless, I'm getting the Limited Edition game.

This is a no brainer. Thats a great value for $99. I will definitely be going with the Limited edition. I just wonder how fast these things are gonna sell out.

So far, nothing from MS ever sells out. (Dig at Legendary Halo 3 and REACH)

Sounds like a great deal.  I checked around a little.  Best Buy has the Limited Edition out there for pre-order, but shows 12/31/12 as the store pickup date.  The other retailers don't even have it listed yet.  Probably will have to wait a little while until everyone gets their act together.

It'd be nice to know how much DLC they plan on releasing beforehand.

You mean, beyond the 9 maps already announced?

All that has been confirmed so far are the 3 map packs of 3 maps per pack included in the limited edition. Obviously (to me) LE owners get the DLC first followed by regular DLC 2-4 weeks later. I expect confirmation of more map packs beyond that from E3 2012, a wishy washy response that really means No or an out right No.

We don't yet know how many multiplayer maps will be coming with the Halo 4 release. I am expecting a descent amount considering there isn't any FireFight.

Some of this will depend on the release of Halo 5. Some people are speculating it's release in Fall 2014, with or without the XBox 720.

Looks like Gamestop and Amazon have it listed now with the 11/6/12 release date.  BB still shows 12/31/12 release.

I haven't placed my order yet. I'm curious to see if they will be including any kind of retailer specific digital goodies as the launch date approaches.

Well the number of maps at release has averaged to around ~10 over the 4 main games. Expect that at least.

I'll most likely be getting the super fancy edition, why stop now....

So I ordered the LE from amazon but there's no option for release day delivery. There is for the SE. Will they update that at some point you think? If not I'm canceling.

Don't know either.  Best Buy has store pickup, but it took them a full week from the original announcement date to get the release date right for the Limited version.  I waited...

I'm sure they'd offer this on the LE version, it wouldn't make sense not to.  I'll probably preorder with Amazon  or WalMart with relase date delivery depending on who has what goodies!
