Here's a better question: Who the hell cares?


Here's an even better question: Why are you wasting your time in the thread if you don't care?


Ohh man, never seen that one coming...

Nobody cares about anyone else's opinion - be it mine, yours, or a cult of angry star wars nerds - when they are enjoying what they enjoy.

Everyone cares about opinions, that's why we socialize on a forum with strangers.

It's called Halo 3: ODST because it's built using the Halo 3 engine. Yes, it does take place during the events of Halo 2, but since that game is over four years old I'm guessing Microsoft didn't want to release a game called Halo 2: ODST.

But it's not important. If it bothers you, just ignore the title.

It should be called Halo 3: I'm buying you for Recon.

Noobs who care so much about armors, forge, theater.

CARE ABOUT CORE GAMEPLAY YOU IDDIOTS.

The sad part is thats true for about 12% of the people buying this game....

I don't really even get how it expands Halo 3 for that matter, I mean it doesn't continue the plotline, it continues Halo 2 more then Halo 3


Um... Mythic Map Pack part 2?

My guess is because they use the same game engine.

The game is called Halo 3 ODST because it is basically a prequel to Halo 3. So in fact it is the base of what starts Halo 3. It also has the Halo 3 engine still running it of corse.

Isn't it more like the events of the defense of Earth after Master Chief left, so wouldn't that be more of a "sequel" to Halo 2 if anything?

I really don't get how it is an expansion to Halo 3 either, I mean isn't it more of a Halo 2 expansion if anything?

It called Halo 3: ODST because:
1) It sounds better
2) It rhymes (3 and ODST)
Se what they did thayre?

So the only reason it's called Halo 3 ODST is because of the engine?

i personally think because it was an expansion. halo wars came with mythic and its not called halo 3 wars now is it. and for all of you saying well it came out 2 mouths later the same thing is going to happen with mythic 2. i agree halo odst is better but bungie isnt going to change it now. and for the engine i say scr*w it. (sorry for the language) it doesnt madder its a game so what if it uses the same engine doesnt mean you need the 3.
