    Gamestop are giving a free hoodie along with a Multi-threat armour download with their standard edition copies of Halo Reach. They are charging €49.99 online and 54.99 instore.

    Not sure if the hoodie only counts online


    Hope they are a decent size :D

    Linky


    EDIT: The more I look at this, the more i think its just an online only offer.

    Is this an actual hoodie or one for the avatar?

    I can't open the link at work.

    Took a snapshot as I can't find the actual hoodie via google.

    It looks kinda cool. Not as good as the actual "Spartan Suit" hoodie. :D

    Edit: actually, that's just the standard xbox... I've got the reach console pre-booked

    Good deal, but you will look like a right nerd wearing it outside.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 947 ✭✭✭Shzm


    How much is the actual reach console?

    Same here, can't find a BUY NOW or ADD TO CART link anywhere, the main page says "online only offer" but I can't find a link to buy the game:confused:

    Can order online now. Mine is put through anyway. Stupid impulses. Hoody probably won't even fit. :)

    Not a mention of it. Poor guinea pig me. I looked all over. No small print. No snaky little *'s hanging around. I'd say it'll be a manual job.

    Pretty bad promotion on their part when you can't even pick the size of the hoodie.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,975 ✭✭✭iMuse


    @Mark please let us know how long it takes for it to be delivered :)


  • Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 11,183 Mod ✭✭✭✭MarkR


    Gets worse for me. Now there is a link for halo + hoody. No cancel option, and I'm not ordering twice. If I get nothing to keep me toasty, it'll go back. I've contacted them on facebook, as they seem to be active enough on it.

    Stupid internet. :D


  • Moderators, Regional Midwest Moderators Posts: 11,183 Mod ✭✭✭✭MarkR


    Hoody and Game arrived yesterday. Happy with both. Hoody is a size Large.

    Mines a large ... fits grand.
    never have enough hoodies for this feckin country.

    I could actually fit into the medium which was somewhat flattering but I don't think I could leave it zipped closed. Still would have preferred a nice XL. :)

    Not even a 'Contact Us' to request size ?

    Nope, I think it was random whether you got medium or large.
