Tank beats Ghost!
Tank beats Hunters!
Tank beats Everything!!!

Now i expect people are going to shout and moan at me for saying this, it's probably been answered by Bungie or come up in various threads but nothing that i could find.

Anyway the thing is, the game is called Halo 3: ODST, when it takes place during the events of Halo 2. Just doesn't seem right to me, Halo: ODST would've made more sense.

Yeah i just feel that it being the same engine as Halo 3 doesn't justify it being called Halo 3: ODST ... if that makes sense.

Ya y would they keep the name halo 3 even tho it is on the halo 3 engine when halo 3 has nothing to do with the ODST story at all

No Halo reach is getting it's own

The fight has been complete.... now get the cookies!

While we certainly share your enthusiasm for the return, we here at the Bungie.net community are mostly made up of snarky asses and jerks who will ridicule you for making a thread about something revealed months ago. We regret that your innocent intentions will almost certainly be replied with anger and sarcasm, and politely invite you to don your Flame-suit, because you just did the internet equivalent of jumping up the Construct lifts.

It's called Halo 3: ODST because it is an expansion to Halo 3. Just an expansion.

because it is an expansion to Halo 3. it uses the same engine and also has the Halo 3 multiplayer.
