Subject: Why is it "Halo 3" still in the name?

Rule 6: Respect the Admins

“It’s their website, and they can do whatever the hell they like with it. You’re a guest, and hassling them about how they run things is akin to going round your Auntie’s house and curling one out in her tea-pot.”

It shares multi player woth halo 3.

So it has to be considered a halo 3 expansion.

3 Reasons:

1. It uses the same engine (graphics, AI, etc.)

2. It's an expansion to the Halo 3 game

3. Halo 2: ODST or Halo 2.5 wouldn't make sense, we'd be going back in time. If anything, it has to have Halo 3 in the title to signify that it's after the Halo 1, 2 and 3 games.

And 4. It contains ALL of Halo 3's multiplayer, so in a way it is still Halo 3.

EXPANSION


If its an expansion why is it still valued at a full retail priced game? I personally think that ODST should be valued at less than $60, its like buying content twice.

ME.
Just curious, don't want to whine about the name not suiting the product, I would just wish to be educated.

Because Bungie doesn't like you being happy with anything so they picked a title that would annoy you.

Mythical Group

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

Because it may very well incorporate the storyline of Halo 3. We have no idea how far the game expands.

Expansion of the Halo 3 story line, or at least the events leading up to it.

Same server, yadda yadda yadda, all of the original Halo 3 maps plus Mythic Maps.

Plus, isn't it supposed to be a whole new campaign story? Like, full length?

It's like if they released Halo 2 with the original Multiplayer map pack.

Kick start a craze

Isn't it a bit redundant for 20+ people to state it's an expansion? I vote to let this thread fade and whither away.
