Subject: Halo 3: ODST Firefight = GoW Horde?

From the impression that I am getting, the "Firefight" campaign mode is going to be very similar to the Horde mode of Gears of War. I could be wrong, but I find this completely amazing!
I have a feeling that this "Firefight" mode is going to be loads of fun.

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

I agree, it sounds similar to Horde mode. I remember last year talking to a few online friends of a possible mode like this in ODST.

I hope so, that'll be awesome. Even if it's not that, it'll be awesome. ;-) Bungie really knows what the fans want, and will no doubt deliver 110%. So much to look forward to now!

Good players work together...and no matter how good you are, you're not physic. - blade6321

Ya, but Horde and Halo 3 campaign have lag issues. -blam!- Zombies has latency, dependin on how your connection is. Not sure how this'll play out, but I just hope they have achievements for it. Not trying to sound like a whore, but let's face it...achievements make things just a tad bit more interesting.

Thank you god the only thing I play on GoW2 is Horde

The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

This game just keeps looking better and better.

That's so kawaii and sugoi. You should come over to my place and I'll let you nyan all over my ugu.

Horde is a fantastic example of a mechanic that is nothing new, but still feels fresh.
If Firefight is anything like it, ODST could outshine all the other projects announced at the Press Conference.

There is a reason I am user ID 1 and my account creation date is before this site came online.

It's a "Horde" mode and if you pre-order you can play as SGT. Johnson. Can I get a hoo-rah?

That very well may be the case, Bagels. Although, I saw a LIVE Feed of some 3D thingamajig that recognised your every movement and sound and translated it into the game.

No it won't horde was the same enemies in 10 waves repeated 5 times with increasing difficulty. Fire Fight will have multiple scenarios each with different weapons and vehicle. The enemies will also come at you in waves until you die(not preset). There will be skulls and difficulties too.

Yeah but, like, dude, Number 6 is in this game. You didn't see Peter Molyneux showing off a 3D thingamijig with Tricia Helfer, did you?

I'm a dude playing a dude desguised as another dude. I hate heritics, non-logical thoughts and people who are better than I am. People tell me that they like a lot of games, but I hate them all. Whenever I play a video game, I always go crawling back to Halo 3. Never go full retard!

Yeah, firefight equals horde

Yeah its simialiar. But if you listen to Bungie podcast firefight was in development before Horde Mode was announced.

  • 06.15.2009 11:11 AM PDT

Actually, its BETTER than Horde. In halo 3, the enemies are random and the maps bigger. There is a wide variety of enemies you could fight and the enemies could have vehicles, but so could you.
