Halo 3 ODST comes with two discs - one featuring the new campaign, Firefight, and Theater. Cool. The next one has Halo 3's Multiplayer - everything Halo 3 had, excluding the old Campaign.

That means:
1. Possibly a new menu theme
2. Improved graphics (very unlikely)
3. New game-type features (trust me, it's possible)

And more. These are all possibilities, but 2/3 of those probably won't happen. They're just theories, guys; don't whine about them either being pointless or difficult.

true about the second disk being multiplayer but I would also think that theater would included in both as to not miss out on every amazing photo opp

The only one that might change, but highly unlikely, is the menu. Wait, it probably will. Seeing as how the menu used to be campaign themed... They're probably going to go for a multiplayer theme this time.

Hey guess what!? I play CoD more than Halo, but I'm not an annoying fanboy. I love CoD more, but I like how involved the Halo Community is...

Who knows about the graphics,, Id be cool if like a another Title Update went live to update the graphics for people who aren't buying ODST.

I'm guessing that the Halo 3 disc with Halo 3: ODST will look something like this.

Edable - Not to be mistaken with Edible, you cannot eat me unless i am in pie form, which only happens once every 371 years

New game features and graphical updates arn't possible because it has to be compatible with all the people playing from the Halo 3 disc.

I hope not; that's pretty boring.

Make up your mind, you're confusing me. But yeah, I agree. I just figured it'd be fair to post other theories I've heard.

And to the poster below you, I'm 80% sure they can't do that. And it's not needed either - ODST can simply reinterpret the graphics and replace them, Halo 3 users can see the original visuals.

Forgot about that, you're probably right. Can't wait!

Graphics won't change because that requires tweaking the engine. Menu won't change because thats more work then needed for something no body cares about, plus the ODST menu is the same as the Halo 3 menu so it is a even more unlikely that the menu will change.

EDIT: Like some else said, to change the graphics and game features, that would require everybody to upgrade, and that just wont happen.

Also, when I said the menus were the same I was talking about the layout.

They're aren't the same... Halo 3: ODST menu has the Rookie sleeping in the background.

This is from PAX 08 it was the multiplayer exclusive build bungie took id imagin somthing similar to this. Halo 3's menu has more than one way to get to campaign so these will have to be removed and id imagin a fly threw of a multiplayer map similar to the Beta valhalla fly threw for the looping background video
