$9.99 seems to be historic low. I'm assuming the summer sale coming up won't bring it lower?

[btan219]

would it even be on summer sale if it's on sale now until the 15th?

[wateranimals]

Might be $9.99 again on a different sale, but I doubt it'll be discounted yet again for the summer sale. I'd take my chances and buy it now

[SpiraTech]

I'm so glad I held out for another sale, this price is pretty amazing for the amount of content, I don't think it'll go below this due to the amount of games included.

[FoxyLoxy]

I don't understand the pricing. Someone help me out?

The Store page says the collection is priced at AUD $12.48.

But it has the individual games listed as well, including Halo CE Anniversary for AUD $2.86.

This implies to me that I can buy Halo CE for $2.86.

But it tells me I need the Base game. Which is $12.48.

So, which is it? Is Halo CE actually available separately for $2.86? Or do I need to buy everything for $12.48?

Thanks for any help.

You can purchase Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary separately. Halo: The Master Chief Collection will be added to your library. The downloadable content disclaimer is generic for all DLC on the Steam store. In this case, it's very misleading, but that's how Microsoft chose to handle their product.

Thank you.

I mean its not REALLY all that confusing and about the best way they could organize it on steam. Master Chief Collection is the COLLECTION and Halo 1 is JUST Halo 1.

When you open the store page for any individual game in the MCC you are met with the disclaimer:

“This content requires the base game Halo: The Master Chief Collection on Steam in order to play.”

Which then leads people to go searching for the ‘base game’ (which is not listed in the store). The fact that people have to keep answering this question time and time again is in contrary to your opinion that it’s not “all that confusing”. Clearly it confuses people.

That disclaimer banner should have been removed a long time ago.

They can't remove it, steam forces them to have it. If its been asked so many times just respond "Google is your friend". If steam allowed custom disclaimers to games that'd fix the issue, but they don't and thats not microsofts fault.

"le meh, buying Halo for 40 bucks, a week and a half ago"

[Hawkner]

It probably is on sale this weekend to preface the Xbox Showcase on the 11th.

It's not really that deep.

[FoxyLoxy]

Thanks to the folks who actually helped.

[Freya]

I still remember when I bought the Master Chief Collection on the dollar bin for literally a dollar in 2014 and I never ended up playing because I heard it was so bad.

So I guess it can technically always go lower. But that's something that can only happen with physical media, as right now is very rare for a game to lower their price more than once even if a decade has passed since it came out.

[The Traveler]

Best price I'm sure. Never got a 75% sale earlier, I think it was 66%. For that price not worth buying one game only. You get 6 games with co-op, MP, horde mode and Steam Workshop. I bought it 3 years ago around 28 euros and palyed 1300 hours!

[handbrakesetatilba]

7 bucks well goodey okley thats a big discount worth the monnie 100%
