Seems to me that if you want the maps and dont care about the rest of that digital crap buy the game thne teh pass for 25 bucks. save 15 dollars that way. I have the 100 dollar one on pre order , but have debated dropping and doing what i said above. I rarley ever use dlc nowadays. I gave mw3 a try and really never use that pass. I did buy one dlc for ghost recon future soldier, which i really like. Last halo dlc i bought was for 2 and that was the last time minus mw3 i bought a special edition of a game that cost more than the standard price.
