I don't get it. Is it going to a whole new multiplayer experience, like going from Halo 2's to Halo 3's multiplayer? Or just another 'variant' of Halo 3's multiplayer?
What do you mean "another variant"? If you're referring to ODST's multiplayer (not Firefight, but multiplayer proper), that's not a variant on Halo 3 multiplayer, it's the exact same thing as Halo 3 multiplayer. Spartans and Elites, BRs and Covenant Carbines, Blackout and Guardian, the whole deal.
Halo: Reach is a different game entirely, but they'd be fools not to reuse parts of the Halo 3 engine. That's just good programming. There's no need to rebuild something from the ground up when you have something that already works and can be made better with some adjustments. Expect strong similarities to Halo 3, just as there were between Halo 2 and Halo 3. Don't expect a carbon copy, though. They wouldn't need to run a beta test if it was all that similar.
