seh looks like a alen anyway

Last Sunday (14th) I had one of my best friends and fellow Halo lunatics over for a day of pizza and Halo playing. While we were playing Halo 1, My friend started talking about H3ODST. He said that he felt like it was a bit of a dissapointment. His reasoning was that there isn't really anything new new in the game. While he did admit the new guns were good looking, he didn't like how Bungie only slightly modified two guns. He pointed out that nothing really innovative changed in the course of H3 - ODST.

We also dove into the topic of the new Firefight mode. He said that although it sounds like a lot of fun, it really is still not very innovative. He compared it to GoW2, and said that Bungie simply saw how well Horde mode went and 'halofied' it. This was the one part of our discussion where I actually disagreed with him.

So...for those of you who managed to read this far, what is your opinion on the matter? My opinion is that my friend was right about his first point, but was wrong on his second. Firefight sounds new and fresh to me.

Please No Flaming, Thanks!

Your friend is not a halo lunatic.
Bungie had a private horde mode for halo 3 before gow2 release.

Really? You can say that without even meeting him. No prejudice there...

This thread would have appealed to me more if it was written with crayons.

I broke one of the cords for my X11s because I couldn't get past the final American course in Doritos Crash Course.

There's definately a few major changes, its still early days though, they havn't revealed everything. It depends on how much change you think is healthy for the game though - I personaly think if it ain't broke, dont fix it.

I have no signature... exept for this one...

The files of Firefight was made long before the release of Halo 3, and obviously GoW2's Horde mode. They couldn't put Firefight into the game because of the other stuff(Forge, Theater etc.), so they're putting it in ODST since it doesn't has its own multiplayer.
