After a number of patches and tweaks the Master Chief Collection may not be fully up and running perfectly, but luckily there are positives to shipping broken games (all of which seems to be the trend this year).

Bonnie Ross, head of 343 Industries, continues to apologize to fans for the problems occurring with the collection. In turn 343 will be releasing 10 episodes of co-op Spartan Ops for Halo 4 as well as 1 Month of XBL Gold, Exclusive In-game nameplate, Exclusive In-game avatar, and Halo ODST when its finished being remade. Now there is no timeframe for when the remade ODST will be in our hands but nevertheless that is a respectable gift for problems that have latest for a decent length.

What do you think? Are freebies warranted gifts for problems that shouldn't happen to begin with? Is this an out for developers who are being rushed? Let us know in the comments below. We look forward to discussing them!
