Surely they could've put up an in-game screenshot of the helmet. That drawing makes it look ugly as fuck.

Mixed feelings on retailer exclusives. It's cool I have something fun and unique, but lame to have to choose which one, and more lame when you can't get certain ones due to location. Hopefully we can get all those somehow anyway.
The BR skin looks cool, the Spartan looks weird.
Edit: Ugh another one already? Are we going to be bombarded with these? I'm glad for Spartan skins and more personalization options, but these look odd. Glad they are the exclusives so far. The Deadeye one should be great, it puts a nice target right on their head. Heh

Sorry, I'll put asmiley at the end of every post I make so it's more amusing to you and Hydra.
I was actually always unsure about using emoticons like that. It's a bad habbit I got into when texting people, because I know people who literally thought I was annoyed/being serious if I didn't include them. Guess I use them on here for the same reason. I suppose you don't ever need to worry about that though, since all you do is complain.

Ugh, retailer exclusives.
I blame Microsoft.

Only in that post. We know you're never done; well, most of us anyway.
Gawd, retailer exclusives are raining down. I'm pre-ordering the LE at Gamestop, so I'll get whatever they have.
Hopefully they're all just cosmetic, which seems to be the case. Could be worse - they could hand out early access to specializations.

Now THERE's a retailer exclusive I can get behind!
Also, that Deadeye helmet is actually kind of cool.

Nobody likes these...why do they keep making them?
It makes things difficult for the completionist fans. All of HaloGAF is trying to figure out how to get these without buying the game 10 times.

When the little hand stays on 4, and the big hand reaches 30.

STOP IT, PLEASE
Evangelion helmet or no.
You'd think so.
Yeah I actually really like it. Looking forward to seeing how it looks in the game.
Shweet.

Will it be available to players who don't preorder it there though? As cool as they look, I don't think anyone wants to be walled off from content.
You and Squid are tasteless bastards.
Says you, who hates any game with free roaming or RPG elements
I'm not sure :/ I certainly wouldn't like to be excluded from armour. Skins and stuff I don't mind.
I know eh, such a drastic change over armor colours. Don't know how the community will handle it.
Reach pre-order stuff couldn't be unlocked in game. Wouldn't count on it.

deadeye is better looking than the other helmet IMO
To me it looks like only the skin pictured for that helmet is the exclusive, not the helmet itself. Yes? No?

I think everything will be unlockable. Some people just have to type in a code, others have to play in order to earn it.
At least I hope so.
Yes. Up here in Canada some stores are still called EB Games while newer ones are called Gamestop, but same shit.
That was not the case for Reach. Retailer or package exclusives remained exclusive.
Shortly after release no one will remember this stuff anyways.
I was meaning just to say that the way I took it was only the skin was exclusive, but the helmet will be in game for everyone.
Like Over and Ghaleon said, Reach exclusives weren't unlockable save for Recon helmet. Guess we'll see when they address this in an upcoming podcast.
The Recon helmet with the upside down antenna attachment couldn't be unlocked without having pre-order Reach though.
I think Gamestop = EB.
