Bungie trying to push in recon?
It seems like now that many more people have recon and it is becoming less special even with halo 3 still out. Bungie seems to be pushing it with the Bungie vs The World Day and the Microsoft Challenge.
It's almost like they want everyone to have it because when out comes ODST everyone with live will have it and games will be based with strictly recon wearers. I rememeber when recon was hard to get with the screenshots let alone any other way.
Bassically I am saying that Bungie is pretty much just trying to hand out recon at this point and by the time ODST comes out I predict at least half the ammount of recon bearers will be doubled and when ODST comes out I would say in weeks the Recon population will double.
How special is Recon if everyone has it?

[quote]i really think it was a large marketing strategy first they would get everyone hyped up about recon then they will give it away to certain people making others jealous then they will announce ODST and say you may be able to get recon if you buy and beat it. So people are going to be really excited and buy it to get recon[/quote] exactly, it's a clever marketing ploy that may get a few people to buy the game for recon, but the only reason i'm buying the damn thing is firefight and the new maps. ODST is in no way shape or form worth $60 compared to halo 3, but these days it's all about the money. Not trying to be a bungie hater but for a 15 year old kid $60 can be alot of money.
