This was only for the people who had MCC before the 19th of december when the server was having issues. The server issues lasted a month so they felt that they owed it to the early adopters.

Additionally, you’ve told us that you want more Halo 2: Anniversary multiplayer map content and Halo 3: ODST on Xbox One.  As a future bonus, we’re going to make these happen and give them to you for free.  We are just now starting work with our partners to bring both toHalo: The Master Chief Collection and will share more specific details on timing in the coming months.  But for now, here’s what you can expect:

• Halo 3: ODST Campaign – Development has just started on the campaign for Halo 3: ODST, which will be available within Halo: The Master Chief Collection, and upgraded to 1080p resolution, running at 60fps. It will be available for free to anyone who has played Halo: The Master Chief Collection since launch (11.11.14) through today (12.19.14).* Thanks to our friends at Bungie for creating the original “Halo 3: ODST” campaign.
  
   
• “Relic” Halo 2: Anniversary Multiplayer Map – Available via a free content update to Halo: The Master Chief Collection, we will reimagine the fan-favorite map “Relic,” fully remastered and running at 1080p resolution and 60fps. We chose this map based on its suitability for Slayer and Objective modes and its ability to support teams of varying sizes. And you can trust that Certain Affinity will tune and tweak the map to make it even better than you remember.
  

Yep. I am on the Scalebound train. I love hack n slash. Quantum Break and Tomb Raider 2 in the same year also couldn't hurt.

Just stop it, I repeat, people are not stupid. "Why would anyone want to buy an Xbox One over a PS4 or a Wii U? Personally I don't get it" Is not "I have no reason to buy one".

You're acting like there is no reason to buy a XB1 and people are crazy for doing so.

Well Dead Rising 3, Ryse Sone of Rome, Titanfall, Forza 5/Horizon 2, Master Chief Collection, Sunset Overdrive, Killer Instinct are current game that are only on Xbox One, along with future games like Halo 5, Fable Legends, Gears of War 4, Crackdown 3, Quantum Break as future titles only on Xbox One. If u are a fan of or interested in those games then Xbox One would be a good console to own.

Over the holidays Xbox One was cheaper than PS4 so if ur into the 3rd party titles that are on both devices but don't really have a preference when it comes to the exclusives than Xbox One was a good choice.

There are many reasons why somebody would choose any of the 3 as there console of choice, it just comes down to preference.

I am very misunderstod I feel. What I meant was, Personally I don't get why NOW.

Ok. That's understandable. I'm just using my 512GB USB stick for movies and music and just delete games from the hard disk as I buy new ones. The games are still in your library and only take a few seconds to install.

Dead Rising 3 and Ryse are on PC, Titanfall is on PC and 360 and Horizon 2 is on 360.

No people are understanding you perfectly. You'd have a leg to stand on if you didn't compare them to PS4 and WiiU in the title.
