Ah ok, yeh I’m not about to go breaking TOS and risk getting an account ban and lose hundreds of games just to save a few bucks.

This particular code expired but the process is the same any day, just buy 12 month gold from "cheap" countries and convert to GP ultimate.
This isnt new mate, people been doing it for years, no one is getting banned for giving MS money.

MS doesn’t care if you switch regions. I do it to get alternate games with gold all the time.

People can play both or not be a fan of halo.
I don’t think COD or Battlefield needs to worry about losing fans to halo either. Halo caters to a very specific i type of player and it’s not the ones that play COD or Battlefield.
Forza has its own buzz, they too will be fine. Once casuals see descope is in halo they will go right back to Forza, COD, battlefield.

Descope is the line that separates halo from the modern shooters and I'm glad 343 chose to hold that line!

And the map design. And the combat triangle. And the set weapons spawns. And the ttk.

The TTK is why Halo has always been my favorite shooter. Higher TTK means more skill involved compared the other 2 big franchises. (BF & CoD)

Interesting I see Infinite has taken over the main image over Forza in the Xbox store

IMO halo MP is built around 2 things.
1. Map Control
2. The Outplay
It doesn't matter if they see you first, or even if they have a better gun, there's an opportunity for you to just play better. That's why I loved H5 with it's magnum starts, that thing had a crazy level of skill gap

I’m assuming the 50gb is placeholder. It’s the same on xbox and the file download is 240mb

This is very cool, if true, which it looks to be.
I only wish it was for the campaign, but I’ll try out the multiplayer and enjoy this news from a marketing perspective.
Great year for Xbox and GP.

Wish it was a campaign demo tbh but excited to see what Infinite looks like on my Series S if the rumors are true.

Bots absolutely own Microsoft's drops. Apparently there's bots that can add to cart on xbox.com before the ATC button appears for regular folks.

The TTK, weapons, and gravity make Halo stand a part. I also think it has the best vehicle combat.

All reasons why people need to stop worrying about "oh poor battlefield and COD" Or people thinking Halo is going to strip people from.those two player bases. Everything described above is a turn off to those majority player bases.
I know it will take me a full week to get use to not scoping at all in Halo. It goes against everything in my DNA since COD4 And Bad Company 2.

Xbox series x Halo edition dropping for prime members on Amazon sometime today. Some people believe it's gonna happen VERY shortly.

I cry about SonyGaf from my chair in Redmond, WA
Neither has more skill involved.
A person who can't aim will be shredded in a game with low ttk.
Theres not more skill involved in spraying your gun while going up close so you can melee someone.
I'm going to play infinite, but I can't deny the series ttk annoys me. Maybe because I am a PC Gamer at heart and finds it kinda weird a dude can survive to AR mags only to die from a head bump.

Strongly disagree, if someone starts shooting you in the back in cod there's a high chance you die. In Halo, you can easily turn on them if you have the skill.

I really just want that controller, I got the 20th anniversary one this morning, but man I wish they had thatc controller separate

Agree.
Higher TTK means it's easier to get away from noobs by jumping 15 ft away and letting shield regen.
In COD, I dont care if someone is the best COD player in the world. If he doesnt use some good run and gun, camping or ducking behind cover skills, he'll get dropped in a fraction of a second.
But some people can still pull off being hard to kill.
It's 10x tougher to avoid being killed in COD than Halo.

This .
Your last sentence clearly shows that you don't understand or play a lot of Halo . No one play like this in higher level , it's all about landing 4-shots BR duel or bouncing a grenade perfectly plus BR headshot . You'll be dead before reaching melee range against someone who's good in BR

It says on the product page. Maybe check?
"Amazon Prime customers will have priority access to the Xbox Series X - Halo Infinite Limited Edition Console Bundle until November 15, 2021."

Yeah a fundamental element of the game is the skill gap precision weapons give. The AR is nice and steady. If you miss shots against it, you will die. If you hit all your shots, you kill him. If you just whip out your AR, or miss just one shot you may trade.

halo is an arena shooter dummy. The levels are designed to promote engagement. I had a 4+ kd in MW2 on 360 with plenty of nukes, flawless games, and hundreds of thousands of kills. I don't think my 'skills' were that elite. If you're playing bad opponents and have patience, you can easily accomplish this. In Halo 5, for instance, even if you're playing opponents below your skill level, it will be difficult to maintain a flawless game without all the free kills that an experienced COD player is able to farm.

Product page for the UK doesn’t list Amazon unfortunately. Hoping there’s another drop. Would love one of those consoles.

Exactly. AR is good in close quarter but it will never get you far over relying on it. You will just get kited unable to finish because there are so many corners and walls to be utilized. This alone highlights how much higher skillcaps compared to other shooter. The only other modern shooter that is comparable is Apex Legend. (excluding Fortnite because it's more like a builder)
