Subject: Is Recon Armor worth buying Halo 3 for?

I'm just getting an xbox 360 and i'm wondering whether or not I should get Halo 3. (Unless of course you can unlock everything in Halo ODST, like armor and other stuff) Does anybody know?

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.

If you want to play halo 3 campaign, get the game. If you don't care for the campaign, just get ODST. Which comes with halo 3 multiplayer disc, no campaign.

You need the campaign to get the vidmaster annual achievement.

The universe is probably littered with the one-planet graves of cultures which made the sensible economic decision that there's no good reason to go into space--each discovered, studied, and remembered by the ones who made the irrational decision.

why do you want to jump into the halo universe from the middle of it if I may ask?

Also if you need a crash course in the story use this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sDNiWYCGedg

You would need the original Halo 3 disc to get the Vidmaster Annual Achievement.

I would say that you buy a used copy of Halo 3 if you can find one. To get recon it is not entirely worth it but it is still cool to me.

Skill is for those who have time to try. I prefer luck. its easy simple and not that hard to pull off. but not every ones got it. Born lucky and maybe i just have to much of it.
LUCK > SKILL

just for recon no. but for an amazing game that you cant put down yes

This is exactly one of the reasons why ODST is going to sell a lot. Because some people are stupid and only want it for Recon and not for the game itself.

I'm not flameing the OP, but the Recon fanatics.

Here’s what Luke had to say about the differences in treatment between the Spartans and Elites in Reach:

“Instead of piece-by-piece customization like the Spartans, Elite customization is a full model swap with models selected from the various Elite classes appearing throughout the Campaign. There are all kinds of reasons for this, not the least of which is our continued emphasis on the Spartan as your identity in Reach.”

Or rent it.

"I dont follow footsteps. I make them"

Rent Halo 3 for campaign

Buy ODST for multiplayer and such.

This is assuming you have played CE and 2

If not play them in order.

Helps the brain.
