343 / Microsoft released the details about Specializations a couple of days ago. I think the rest of the information was available back when pre-orders were available.

You do get 3 future map pack releases which usually cost somewhere between 800-1200 MS Points (around $15-20). Standard edition is $90 so adding $45 (for 3 seperate map packs at $15 each) that is $135. Limited edition is $130 so your saving $5 just on the map packs, you also get all the other stuff in the Limited edition. For anyone that knows they're going to be getting the future map packs it's a good deal. I still would've preferred to see a legendary edition above this one, but oh well.

So you saw the word halo and almost threw up, then after not throwing up you when on to this article and posted a comment just to say you don't like a video game. Then went back onto this article at 1am to reply to a comment that I posted. Sounds like having a lot of fun.
