Best Song ever: You Cant Quit Me Baby by Queens of the Stone Age

Also Guns and Roses are the biggest load of pish-posh ever

Were you expecting ODST to be COD but set in Halo?

Console Division Lead - Clan ParadoX

They confirmed a long time ago that it wouldn't be LDS.

This isn't call of duty, they wouldn't change the gameplay like that, also iron sights are pretty much obsolete in the Halo universe, thanks to smart links

there you go, theres your sight

but if you meant aim down sight then no halo odst doesnt have that, they wanted to keep the same halo feel

I guess if you really wanted "Iron sights" you could close one eye and tilt your head and hum the CoD theme

Glad that Halo 3 garbage is dead, thanks to Reach.
Unfreakenbelievable!!

This would require there to actually be sights on the guns, which most of Halos weapons don't have. Also, iron sights are only good with the left trigger as the zoom control. Pushing the right stick would not flow well. There also has to be more design put into the "expansion" so there is animation/graphics and so forth. It is only an expansion; not a completely new game. Come to think about it, you also have to make it so you shoot more accurately when you are targetting so it is worth it, since iron sights don't really give you any real range advantage since the target's size doesn't change.

There are alot more things to be angry about other than something that would not go over very well for those who like that Goldeneye/Halo FPS style.

EDIT: It's all about the Red Dot, anyway. : )

Non facete nobis calcitrare vestrum perinaeum

Well you can just imagine that the is a link between the weapon and the soldier, and the reticule shows up on a soldier's HUD, which eliminates the need for iron sights.

whats a iron sight
You know when you look down the barrel of a gun into the little target at the end? That is what Iron Sight is. It's basically targeting without a zoom and scope. Play other games like COD4 and you may experience it.

Next time, search using Google.com. The internet is a marvelous place; you find just about anything by searching. There is a whole 'nother world outside of Bungie.net.
