Subject: Expansion or new game?

The land of fun freedom has been taken by the recon greedy fingers of the boosted 50's and lag switch wielding trolls of the bungie forums. The ones blinded by the goal of a 50 don't see how fun halo is any more it became a goal instead of a recreation....... Sorry to say man but its over.

I was wondering if ODST is going to be a expansion or will it be a different game? am i going to have to change disks to play firefight? Or am i just going to be able to change lobby's from matchmaking to firefight or the campaign.

ODST is an expansion.

You will have to switch to the secondary disk to play matchmaking.

ODST matchmaking = Halo 3 matchmaking.

One disk contains the ODST campaign and Fire Fight. The second contains Halo 3 matchmaking.

Disc 1 is an expansion. You can't have disc 1 unless you buy disc 2 to go along with it. DISC 2= Stuff I already own.

Except the new campaign will have much better replay value since it's open world, and firefight mode will keep me entertained for ages. Plus it comes with three new maps for halo 3 multiplayer.

Intended to be an expansion, but ended up having enough (if not more) content to be a fully priced game.

Very true.

It's being labeled an expansion because it re-uses the Halo 3 game engine.
