Halo 3: ODST

I'm suprised that I really like how 'different' it plays. Subtle and effective.

The Bladerunner-esque vibe of New Mombassa at night and the music is perfect.

Cool. Will get it, I've been pretty disappointed with everything since Mirror's Edge, which was kind of in a bit of a genre of its own.

Dissapointed with the single player , completed it in 5 hours flat . Multiplayer is excellent though , especially Firefight.

If it only took you 5 hours you should try playing it on Heroic or Legendary, presuming you didn't.

I'm about three hours in and I think it's superb.

I was playing it on Heroic .

Ahh well , not long until CoD MW2

Thing is MW wasn't much longer than 5 hours play so I'm not that bothered tbh...

But MW was really meant to be played online , which is why I'm still playing it 2 years later on Xbox Live

Just finished ODST, 10/10 from me. I love the combat in Halo, and this was the best yet (no Flood!)

Now to get stuck into Firefight and Halo Mythic multiplayer goodness. Woo!

No Flood, really?

Sounds good, the flood were such a cheap ass pile of game bulking shit.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Nice! I never liked the flood, they just felt like a cheap plot device at times...

 

[mwgdrwg]

No Flood thank god. No Elites either (following on from the storyline of Halo 2). A shitload of great battles with Brutes, Grunts, and Jackals though. I played it on Heroic and it was much easier than Halo 3 on the same difficulty level, wish I'd gone straight in to Legendary.

I hope Halo Reach has loads of Spartans fighting Elites, and no Flood!

Right the box arrived back today and ODST has been ordered! Looking forward to killing the covenant again.

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Woohoo just got home and found ODST waiting for me!!

 

[Kid_Eternity]

Playing it slowly but so far liking this. Quite different gameplay to Halo, very nice atmosphere and skulking about (waypoint stealth FTW!) and love the way the story I'd unfolding...
