Will you rent ODST before buying it? I for one, will be renting the game first. $60 for essentially DLC and a beta key. LOL.

I understand this is the ODST forum and most people that find their way here are big fans of the franchise.

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.

You are laughing at the greatest game ever known to man? This thread shall BURN! How about 60$ for awesome fun. If you could care less for it then DON'T POST IN HERE!

Greatest game ever known to man? LOL. 5 hours of campaign is nothing. Horde mode (firefight) seems fun, but I have to try it before buying it.

I don't rent games that I know will be good like this. I rent games like transformers adn other movie concept game that I'm only moderately interested in.

I saw this in another thread....not well spoken enough to be regurgitated in every thread.

Dude were getting more than another game would. L4D only gives you a campaign and multiplayer that are practically the same thing and it is 60$. Stop complaining and if you don't care about the game and only want to complain, we don't want to hear it.

Your friendly and eccentric Sangheili forum-poster. :)

No, I'll be trading Halo 3 in for it.

First, I want to state that you are right about it being an ODST forum with a lot of fans of the franchise. Understanding this, I must question your decision to post this here. I'll try to disagree in a way that doesn't come off as fan boy.

I challenge you to find me DLC for any other game that features:

A full length campaign, confirmed to be comparable to other Halo games. We'll call it around 8 hours give or take a few, considering it also features a massive open world night city hub.
Complete renovation of the health, equipment, movement and abilities of the new playable character.
A new survival mode featuring 10 maps.
The original Halo 3 multiplayer, with custom games, forge, and theater, featuring all 21 maps available and 3 new maps.

That is not DLC. That is a game. While you may feel free to debate the worth of the multiplayer portion, to call this game something that should be DLC is completely wrong.

Oh and Surest Tundra, While I'm stoked that you are using my quote, you should feel free to modify it in a way that matches the thread you post it in. I typed that in response to someone excited about the brute plasma rifle, and the way I wrote it is a little context specific, and sounds odd in a thread like this. Thanks for keeping it alive though.

I'm not here to complain, just to voice an opinion. My friends and I were playing N­azi Zombies the other night and were discussing the release of ODST. I like horde mode. I'm excited to check it out. I'm just not sure if I'm willing to drop the dough on dlc.

It definitely isn't 5 hours of campaign. Use the search bar to find the thread about campaign gameplay. This game is worth $60 because you get a decent campaign, firefight, every single halo 3 map created forge mode and custom games.

I don't think so. Buying it is so worth your money.

Apparently you don't know, IT IS A FULL GAME NOT DLC!

No. I've already paid off my pre-order anyway, so it's too late to take it back anyway (not like a would). I trust Bungie is going to deliver a solid game, as they always do, and I'm really pumped for it.

If you think it's just a Reach Beta and DLC, you're playing Halo for the wrong reasons. It's about the story. Halo 3: ODST's story is already shaping up to be brilliant, and I'm stoked to see the final product. I wouldn't miss this one for the world.

Plus your wasting money on renting it and if you buy it, you used more than you should have.
