Just finished watching the IGN conference including ODST and I must say that firefight looks bloody amazing.

Wave after wave of covenant is gonna be mega, do we have any confirmation on how many waves we get to play against?

Congrats Bungie, Firefight blew me away!

Why the hell are you looking at this? Get out.

And no group invites, you jerk. I'm not interested.

Likely infinite.

Go Rams and Missouri!

G4 decided to show highlights of press conferences that could be found on their own website and they also show some -blam!- playing Donkey Kong, but they decided not to show Halo 3: ODST. They all should kill themselves.

In the Bungie podcast they tell you there are 99 waves but that you cant reach the last one.

link?


It was a live stream with Jessica Chobot and 2 dudes, one from Bungie and one from Microsoft.

they showed a level called "Security Zone" where its a bit like escalation on Gears of War but faaaaaaaaaaar bigger,

ODST spawned at the top and covenant where flown in with wraiths etc at the bottom, destructable cover, skulls which change the way the enemy fights after each wave.

Honestly it was breathtaking.

Maybe there will be recorded video shortly.

I'm going to invade your heart like a barn swallow high on milk chocolate and grandma love.

Fairness is only possible within the limited powers of man. Elsewhere, there is only chance.

Thus I refute thee.

Mike Lowery: [singing] Bad boys, bad boys what ya gonna do? What ya gonna do when we come for you?
[Marcus starts ad-libbing the first verse]
Mike Lowery: Dude, you gotta learn the words.
Marcus Burnett: We usually only do the chorus

there will be five waves

Mythical Group

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

The video doesn't need to be recorded, you can simply rewind. Just look for SonicJohn's thread.

99 waves, they only lasted to 5 but there are gone be 99. It's a fact because bungie said that they implemented 99 waves but nobody is gone make it till there.

:) - Hey EAKLE, you can DL a hires version of that same vid right here from Bungie itself.

http://www.bungie.net/Projects/ODST/default.aspx

What everyone would like to see now is a recording of IGN's stream from E3 earlier today where Bungie demoed the 'Firefight' mode. Apparently in great detail from what I've read.

And the Shadow fell upon the Land, and the World was riven stone from stone. The oceans fled, and the mountains were swallowed up, and the nations were scattered to the eight corners of the World. The moon was blood, and the sun was as ashes. The seas boiled, and the living envied the dead. All was shattered, and all but memory lost, and one memory above all others, of him who brought the Shadow and the Breaking of the World. And him they named Dragon.

It looks freaking amazing.
