Anymore it's just a bad idea to post opinnions on b.net

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

What I have noticed is that people who started their Halo experience playing Halo 3 multiplayer, or even in extremely rare cases, Halo 2 multiplayer, do not like this game.

Basically they are just multiplayer fanboys who can't handle different mechanics or feeling like a noob.

I'd confidently say that the majority of those of us who started out with Halo CE back when it first came out appreciate ODST for what it is.

Personally, I bought ODST for ODST. I doubt I'll even use the second disk at all.


I had to quote because this is completely in line with what I was going to say. I didn't expect to see something so similar to what I was going to post.

Nearly everyone who has played Halo from the beginning are having a blast with the change to campaign (and the gameplay nods to the original, which is cool). For what ODST is, it is outstandingly fun. I've only played FF once, by myself, and it was intense and a lot of fun.

HALO CE ALL THE WAY

This game kick so much freaking ass! how can you not like it? it reminds me of halo CE, only now you CAN get killed by grunts, which makes it double the fun, but what do I care, go cry some more, no body cares.

  • 09.23.2009 7:09 PM PDT

Don't like ODST? Darn shame. I really enjoyed it. If only you did too.

You guys need to grow a thicker skin towards these things. So he doesn't like the game you like? He doesn't know you and vice versa (probably). Live and let live.

That being said, no one is in the right when everyone is insulting their opposition.

Stop -blam!-ing about the price.

You should've read some reviews BEFORE you paid for it.

I do not think ODST is worth the price of a full game, but it was never meant to be a full game.

It was supposed to be an expansion pack, before M$ decided to bump the price up, which caused Bungie to try and pack more content in. Hence, Fire Fight, and Sgt. Johnson.

I'm not going to go through everything I liked about this game, because it's a waste of everyone's time.

Suffice to say, that I loved this game, despite it being over priced.

You did not. We can't change you're mind, you can't change our mind. Grow up, and shut up.

Xbox - $300
Halo 2 - $50
Xbox Live - $50
Getting hacked every game and throwing your controller at your dog - $400 (Surgery)
Still having fun - Priceless

Fear Nothing

This is to all the people who say they would pay $60 for firefight alone are you all insane? I'm a big fan, but that is little much even I can tell when I would be getting ripped off.

Just bought my pre-ordered copy of ODST tonight. Picked it up at 12:22 am and quickly drove it home to play. Already had friends lined up to do 4 player co-op. $60.00 for 3 new multiplayer maps that will be free in another 2 months, and a 5 hour campaign... That doesn't sound good I thought, but then this is Halo and we have all of the previous titles and loved each one. That list includes Halo Wars... Therefore I thought that this one has to be good. Long story short, the 4 of us all agreed that this is a terrible game which is chock full of shortcuts and unpolished hogwash. I plan to take my copy back to the store when it opens for my money back! Bungie - This is not worth $60.00 - not even close. This is a crappy game and that is coming from a Halo-fanboy. You guys lost a customer tonight. I won't buy another one of your titles. I am extremely disappointed by this game.



You kid, you are one person out of billions that play this game, Bungie doesn't care. GTFO and STFU!!

Exactly, I have no opinions on whether Halo 3 ODST is a good game or not. I do have solid opinions on the price and value of the game though.

I very, very badly want to play ODST's campaign; I don't care about Firefight really; I might or might not enjoy it. I'm just not ready to spend 60 bucks on ODST, I'm kind of irked that there isn't another purchase option.

(Also, Bungie forum users disgust me, I can only imagine how many parents of kids who are actually mentally disabled would be offended if I so much as point out a single legitimate flaw of Halo 3)

FF is like a covenant version of -blam!- Zombies :P so ODST is clearly the shizt!!!!!

Circle Jerkin' I got my wiener workin'

What the hell is wrong with you guys? OP can't post his opinion without being attacked by fanboys? This is ridiculous, I too did not care for the game and it is definetly not worth 60 bucks, 40 max. I hate how fanboys are so blind when a bad game is released by their precious Bungie... and they don't want to admit it because their heads are to far up Bungie's ass. It's sad that they are brainwashed.

The hogwash was totally by design. Let's try to keep it civil folks. Not everybody's gonna like the game. And while we recognize that such opinions are in fact, terrible, we should let them desperately cling to them without getting all rude and angry about it.

:)


I agree! you anti-halo dudes suck! xD


Plus! you can blame Stosh for this!

Can somebody help me i beat all the levels except for the fifth one and now i cant figure out a way to play it without restarting the entire game...PM ME PLEASE!!!

I'ma beam them up.

TheEasy1JM, while I agree that you are entitled to your own opinions about this game and how Bungie played it out, I disagree about your actions pertaining to creating this thread. If you found Halo 3: ODST not enjoyable, that's ok as nobody is going to care. It is when you and the many others out there that created these types of threads, people starting getting angry.

Yes, I disagree at how the majority of the posters to this thread have taken action against your original post, but it is something expected while roaming the internet.

As for my opinion on the game, I find it enjoyable as I get to fool around with my friends during campaign or FireFight. Either way, I get some laughs in whenever somebody dies as it's usually a hilarious moment.

Unlike most of the other posters here, I will not think negatively of you; it isn't my job to tell you which games are "the" ones to love.

Skibur, I agree with you 100%. The majority of current Halo players either jumped on the hype train that started with Halo 2's Xbox live capabilities or realized that it had a great multiplayer that could compete with that of GoW or CoD by the time Halo 3 released.

I believe all of us senior B.net members really do appreciate Halo for what it truly is.

Ever since Halo: CE, I have been absolutely fascinated by campaign and that has remained to be the only thing I'm interested in when I make a purchase.

You don't like it? I got it today and so far i love it :D

Honestly you say that people are being immature but yet your here mocking people for liking odst yeah thats real mature.

When hell is full the dead shall rise!

In reply to some1's post on the first page of this very long thread. I like icecream. And I think the game is great. I'm a hardcore Gears of War fan and this brought me back to playing Halo.

Upon reconsideration; OP, while I'm glad I could provide some good insight for your side of the argument I did forget the biggest piece of insight that I could have EVER given you, and I have the last three posters to thank for reminding me of this fact...

You brought your disappointment to the Bungie forums, the largest home of internet trash and ass-hats that exist.

WHo cares what anyone else says about the game. As long as those who are having fun like it, it's all that matters.


true true (we dont like complainers though thats why we are here haha jk)

It was some year around 2000 or 2001 when i first picked up an original x box controller and played halo 1 with my friend. ever since then i have had halo 2 and halo 3 x box live in my bedroom 100% hooked. halo has been my fav game for about 10 years. Playing ODST's campaign really made me hate the whole odst idea. the campaign is the same thing over and over its very boring. THE ONLY THING BAD ABOUT THE WHOLE ODST SET IS THE CAMPAIGN. firefight is awesome!!
