Subject: Will ODST catch the Call of Duty Fans?

I was wondering if ODST would catch all of the Cod Fans, who call Halo Galo and all that. I Seriously hate that they trash talk a amazing game like this, but I was wondering if ODST will be not Galo but a firm and popular game. Opinons?

No... way... Head over to the MW2 forums, I've been hanging out there a lot and about 90% of them hate/dislike halo, and will not buy ODST

(most think MW2 will outsell Halo 3 on the xbox, lolololololol)

I think that personaly ODST is better but COD will catch more attention because its more realistic while ODST is a run-n-gun, middle of the action game. Bungie tried to make ODST more tactical by involving you as a "weaker" non super-human ODST but it still catches the Spartan effect a little

No, CoD will outsell ODST but both are great games.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

No, they'll be playing Modern Warfare 2. You know, another game where you spawn, hold the right trigger and win.

This is going to turn into the 1000th "CoD vs ODST" thread so... /thread

The funny thing is CoD fans are thinking that MW2 will sell more than ODST (obviously it will) but ODST is an expansion to halo 3, so basically a brand new game is just competing with an expansion?

Yep I do as well and to answer your question no I don't think it will but as for me both games look amazing so therefore I will be getting both

ODST is basically a new game, albeit a smaller one.

Not really.

I used to know someone who got Halo 3 and sold it because he thought the Campaign was rubbish. Didn't even play Customs,Forge or Matchmaking.

Shh... just let the Call of Duty fans think they accomplished something. Like when they kill a sniper they saw on Killcam... yeah... doing super hard stuff like that.

And then getting a chopper to do all of the work for you once you get 7 kills in a row. You know, that game couldn't possibly be more difficult than it is now.

Don't get me wrong... good game... I bought the map pack today. I regret it.

You can't say Halo is harder than Cod or Cod is harder than Halo. That won't get anywhere.

I think some "Galo" callers will buy ODST, but More diehard COD fans will probatly say MW2 will out sell ODST, which it probatly will, because ODST is more of an expansion then a whole new game, but the fact that Halo has a "-blam!- zombies" in it will urge some to buy the game.

Oh and i think more people buy Halo packs (legendary,heroic), then MW2 - Veteran

You're right, it doesn't really go anywhere, but it is true. I mean, I play the game probably an average of once every couple of months, yet I still have a decent KD and whatnot.

It will, not all of them, but quite a few. Hey I used to hate Halo for online, I liked campaign, nothing else. I used to hate Halo, I still love CoD games, not so much no. 5, but I still love them, but now I love Halo too. Guys some of you say they act immature, bla bla, but some of you are no better, not meaning to troll, but seriously, get a grip, not all of them are bad I know some are total asses, but hey, it's Xbox Live!!! Even in Halo I constantly meet jackasses, in fact some of the people on Halo are worse, on Bungie.net, I love the community, Halo 3, hate 89 percent of it, mainly trash talking, ignorant, people who act like they are god. I do admit, CoD has a bad communtity too, but no game is perfect. The fact is both are great games, and developers, it's the community that let's it down, mainly, yes some things on Halo I can't stand, same with CoD, but I love them both, and also, Halo is run, gun, fun and BIG ASS guns. CoD is spray and pray a lil' bit every day. But both are hyped up a lot. If you act like a total ass toward a game with tons of hard work put in it, you are no better, and sometimes worse. I used to be, a bit, now I know. So as Bungie would say....Play Nice!

Go Rams and Missouri!

It doesn't need to. Halo 3 has been the top game on Live, beating out Call of Duty games, for about 75% of it's lifetime.

Dude I don't care and my grammer is perfect.I used "Big", as you recall it to mak is specific."to not do...",is incorrect beause "do" is present tense/perfect(or future) when it was a past tense.

Well my friend already plays more CoD than Halo, and he started live as a Halo person, but he went over to the -blam!- side.

  • 08.15.2009 3:39 PM PDT

Then you are no better than them. Period.

  • 08.15.2009 3:40 PM PDT

Some of them maybe if we're lucky on a blue moon. I'm serious, a few may.

As I said earlier, it won't. But, part of me wishes it would. Even though CoD's community is -blam!-, its less -blam!- than Halo's.
