So from viewing all these pre-order armor skin bonuses here is what I see, 343 learned a lesson from Halo: Reach (bungie) that lesson being if you let a player customize there armor the more time they will spend playing the game. Is this a good or bad thing when deciding who pre-order from?? not really but you do want to get that cool armor skin though right?? For myself it does not really matter because I like what 343 is showing us that like Reach you will be able to stand out from the crowd on the battle field when slaying your friends. Another reason this great well for some like myself who occasionally makes machinima is that it looks like 343 understands machinima gets a little boring to watch when all the spartans wear the same armor in other words variety is a good thing!!! as far as armor and armor skins go. below are some pics that were released yesterday on The Halo Bulletin 5/30 and if your looking to order a specefic bonus check out LastPR0METHEAN thread on the Halo waypoint forums
