Bump, before making a pre-order.

I have Hardened on pre-order. Decide whether you want the Premium Elite (I personally want it), and if you do, then Hardened saves you $10-20.

Normally I'm not a fan of throwing money at Activision, but this time I'm like eh.

I know I won't use the elite a lot, but for the DLCs.

7/10 people told me to get a hardened.
