If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

Okay, here is a picture of Romeo, from ODST.

Now, look at this picture. (If you can, zoom in.)

Why I'm bringing this up is that I believe that Halo 3: ODST will have customizable characters alongside selectable characters. (e.g. playing as Carmine or a Locust Kantus in Gears 2 Multiplayer.) Looking at the second picture, you see two ODSTs, both with a blue stripe on their helmet and one with bullets wrapped around the leg. (I provided the picture of Romeo as a reference.)

Another picture proving my point is here. (You'll have to be able to zoom in to see this.) The ODST on the left has brown markings on his leg, and other gear resembling Dutch's but the helmet lacks the markings that makes Dutch look badass. The ODST in the middle is definite proof as a large red stop sign is painted onto the chest.

Earlier, I mentioned "... customizable characters alongside selectable characters," and I believe this because of the Sergeant Johnson pre-order bonus. The ability to play as Johnson means that it is possible Bungie will allow us to play Firefight, and maybe even online co-op with customized characters.

Thank you for reading, please share your thoughts.

That's Dutch.

And I would love to make my own ODST for Halo 3: ODST.

That stop sign is probably the emblem. If you notice, inside the stop sign, you see the Ohnoudont, or whatever that symbol is called, with the icon toggled off.

I'm sorry, but I don't see that.

Hmm...well, I do think that customizing ODST's would be cool, but did anyone else see Romeo's very short sniper rifle in the first pic?

It looks short because hes holding it in front of the Scope

The chestplate is customizable

I disccussed it with a fellow who played it at E3

  • 06.02.2009 7:16 PM PDT

Why does Bungie put us through such avid anticipation?

Seems like a definite possibility.

  • 06.02.2009 7:27 PM PDT

I am of an open mind and I am willing to hear criticism. Also: That's stupid and you're stupid.

I hope we get Dutch's armor in this. As you said it just looks so cool.

  • 06.02.2009 7:30 PM PDT

Those emblems look pretty awesome. Much more vibrant than in Halo 3. I see that they added new emblems (Like the SuperIntendent emblem), but I hope they kept the other emblems too.

Oh, maybe they'll have an ODST emblem with the SMG's instead of swords to replace (hopefully not) the spartan emblem.

  • 06.02.2009 7:34 PM PDT

OMG a hunter!!!!!!!

on the last pic if you look at his chest it looks like the SI
