You best be trolling.
Or have down syndrome, either way.

For 60$, you get a game, a shatload of maps for free, some not even available otherwise. A new campaign. Firefight. The opportunity to unlock Recon. A free pass to the Reach Beta when its done.

And more.

Stop your whining.

You suck!

-blam!- you!
Wow what a wonderful expression. I know you must have put a lot of thought into that. Mommy and Daddy must be so proud of you. Update: I have played Firefight now for about 5 hours or so. Topped 100K points before they finally got me on Normal setting. I enjoyed it. However, was the disk worth $60.00? For me the answer is "No". Especially considering that I have already purchased all of the other Halo 3 map packs. For those of you that think I am a PS3 fanboy, then you are just idiots. I have played over 3 thousand games on this ID alone, not to mention my other ids. In fact I have burned through 3 Halo 3 disks. I am playing my Legendary copy now - the one that came with a Helmet. Actually Halo 3 was my first introduction into the Halo Universe. After playing it I went and purchased Halo 1 and 2. I will play the Beta for Reach before I decide to purchase anymore Bungie games. I am still very disappointed by ODST. As for those of you that think I am a troll, noob, or whatever else your pee-sized brains can dream up. The fact of the matter is that I work for a huge company, and was an international consultant for several years. Now I am also an author, and I am working on my third book. My question is what have you done with your lives? My guess is that you work a blue-collar job, beat your wives, get drunk on the weekend or sleep in your parents basements because you are too lazy or too stupid to get a real job.


Now, this post just really upset me. You're an international consultant for a huge company, an author getting ready to put out your third book, but you still feel the need to stereotype the players of this game and the users of this forum? I realize you don't like ODST and that's fine. Everyone has their own tastes. You thought you'd come on here and voice your displeasure of the game with the actually developers. Fine.

You got flamed by some immature posters. Big deal. But here's the thing, if you're a top notch person like you claim to be, and a much better human being then the rest of us, because we all live in our parent's basement, why are you being just as immature and defensive as every other person on here? If you're the better person then the rest of us, shouldn't you act like it?


Pardon me, but if you read the post, I do not claim to a better person than "the rest of us" [all of you], rather I am pointing out that some of the people that choose to do personal attacks fall into those categories. As far as being better than all of you. I am neither better nor worse than anyone on here. I am a sinner and I have my faults (many). I just don't like the idea of some pimply faced teen, sitting at home; bad mouthing an adult without getting the same back. The problem with most of these kids is that no one has ever told them no, or made them work for anything, or do anything. That is why they have no respect. That is definitely why they don't mind spending any amount of money on a game (probably because it is Mom and Dad's money). In the hopes of preparing them for real life, I have chosen to engage with them. This is an immature response, but I believe that it is the only thing that these kids can respect, or hear.

Bottomline If you respect me and have a disagreement with me, I am fine with that. Each of us are entitled to our own opinions, but do it respectfully. Thank you for your post.

I laughed when I read this. All of the people that were playing have jobs, and one of them was my wife. My wife and I were playing on our large flat-screen. It's almost as if this guy knows me, and then said the exact opposite of reality. This guy is funny.

These hands you see before you will end the light of day. Your ashes will be cast into the wind! Your blood's upon the soil, your body fed to wolves, not one of you will be left alive...!

Yeah you guys should stop complaining about price, it's freaking 69,99$ WITHOUT the taxes, which are 15%.

  • 09.29.2009 4:57 AM PDT

If I'd spent my own money on the full retail price of the game I might be a little peeved that it was padded with multiplayer I already own and DLC maps I have already paid for. If I'd paid £30 in a supermarket or something I would probably be quite happy with what I got for the money though. As it stands the two people I share a place with both got copies so it was a non-issuse.

I thought it was fantastic overall, in many ways better than halo 3 and in some ways the best halo game yet.

I'm not returning my ODST game. Mainly cause I have all 3 Halo games and I want to collect them all. But I think Its important to note that I haven't played a game like Combat Evolved since Halo 1 and Bungie has been attempting to recreate that with every game since. Some of the most fun experiences I had while playing Halo 1 and I'm sad to say Bungie has failed at bringing back that feeling. Lets face it Bungie isn't Valve. By the way the price tag is ridiculous when you consider companies like valve give away expansions. 5 games on 1 disc, Orange box anyone?

I agree with the short story line, but I thought the story line was epic, if they would have made it longer, it would have dragged out.. Was it worth the 60 bucks? Yes! Why? Because of Firefight and also the fact that you have the only way into the Halo: Reach Beta when it opens... They didnt make the game for YOU personally enjoy.. And so what? They lost 1 fan, opposed to the millions that they have.. I can see their stocks dropping already.... NOT

  • 09.29.2009 7:30 AM PDT

Les tok, moar lulz.

I hope the store you purchased it from doesn't let you return it. That would be a total loling spree for me.

  • 09.29.2009 7:43 AM PDT

i think its awesome! i think it rivals Halo 3 itself. its more of a stragetic team game so i love it! and BTW easy1jm you expect WAY too much or you have way too much time on your hands >.< be happy with what you get.

  • 09.29.2009 8:15 AM PDT

No one cares about you.... this game is awesome

  • 09.29.2009 8:18 AM PDT

Hmmm, I don't know what to say...

Honestly I bought Halo 3 ODST because of the story. I love the story I love everything Halo but quite frankly the graphics suck. Yes I saw videos of gameplay before and realized they sucked but bought it anyway for the story. Visually it looks like an old game and that sucks. Hell it looks as though Bungie is new in the biz. And no the maps aren't free your paying for them if you bought the game.

The graphics SUCK?! ARE YOU -Blam!-ing me?!
They're the best graphics I have EVER seen. Of course I have a 1080i HDTV...
So that could make a difference.

great campaign only to short!

Thank you Bullet Storm! Finally a real intelligent person. I knew I could find some!

Having more than one person agreeing with you dosen't make them intelligent, it dosen't make you inteligent, it dosen't make me intelligent (*Sigh*) but it does make you almost alone in a zombie horde of people who do really like the game.
But still it's your own opinion and you're entitled to that but until Bungie make Master Chief in happy dream land they'll still hve my respect as a publisher

Everyone should just stop posting here (I'm going against my better judgement here and posting anyway). If Easy!JM didn't like the game for whatever reason, that's just too bad for him. By posting here you're just feeding his fire (which has grown into a roaring flame by now) and are simply amusing his off sense of humor. He trolls his thread looking for spelling errors and grammar mistakes and then criticizes the poster for their lack of grammar because he's an "Author". Then, he'll proceed to boast about his wife and flat screen T.V. and all the other luxuries he can think of. Hats off to you mate, but if you ask me, marriage is a prude thing of the past and just about everybody I know has at least three flat screens (and I'm a poor Graphic Designer). So, let's get this straight. Just because you're the writer for some no-name community news-paper with slightly above average grammar skills, that doesn't mean you're any better than anyone else here. In fact, I'd say you're a very weak-willed person, full of arrogance and disdain. And I know you're just here to try and give your "good" advice to everybody. What you don't realize is that you're swimming in a sea of fanboys here (myself included)and are trying to stay afloat by insulting their intelligence. You really are better off taking your argument to another community, this one does not seem to suit you well. Now, I've got to get back to work... Thank you, it's been fun. Message me if anyone wants to play some Firefight. GT= my forum tag.

We don't need a rule for every single freaking thing someone thinks is spam.

Well, whether or not you liked the game is entirely your opinion and its worth is based on your enjoyment of it, so I'm sure it wasn't worth $60 for you. Unfortunately, your opinion doesn't reflect that of the vast majority.

But what ever, you got a good thing going on here, keep it up and I'll be playing firefight. =) Enjoy! . . Or don't, what ever floats your boat.

  • 09.29.2009 9:21 AM PDT

did you read the forum rules? I say this guy is begging to get banned. Shure halo 3 ODST has it's pro's and con's but it's way woth the 60 bucks. Actualy its the best 60 bucks ive ever spent.over all this dude dosen't know the value of things. Hes missing out on some halo fun arn't i corect?

I can read just fine. In fact, that's all I do most of the time. I just think it's odd how you judge someone because of their skill in a game. Honestly, I'm god-awful at Halo. But people don't bash me if I dislike a game for it.

Also, you have no idea how hard you got trolled.

  • 09.29.2009 10:18 AM PDT

Okay people, listen up.

Bungie does not set the price, Microsoft does. Go complain to them, if you want it to change.

Halo 3: ODST has the content of a full game, regardless of what you think. The average campaign for a "full game" is about 6 hours, which ODST has. And then multiplayer, which ODST ALSO has. If you bought Halo 3, and all the maps before ODST, GREAT. Do you think that they should give away the full Halo 3 multiplayer experience to everyone, just because you already have it? That's INSANE.

If you're not happy with you're game, coming to the forums; calling us "scrubs" and then trying to start a flame war IS NOT the way to handle it.

Grow up OP.

Eh?

Sweet one less Doosh to worry about on Halo.

Did you know this thread was going to have this many comments?
You better be trolling, I mean there's nothing really wrong
with the game. "Too many shortcuts" doesn't seem to sum up anything about why it's bad, for example, post like you really
mean to say it's bad, like "It's too samey" or "Too Repetitive"
of the halo series. If you could handle halo wars, why don't
you like this? Halo ODST was a different approach to the halo series, but otherwise, Halo Wars wasn't?!? Besides, Wars was a strategy game, I'm not saying that you can't compare them, but if you must, wasn't even developed by Bungie, so how can your list contain Halo wars if you were dissapointed for Bungie?

I myself find it a very enjoyable experience, especially when I'm roaming around new mombasa in the dark with my VISR on, I just love that feeling of solitude and surprise action when you
sneak up on a group of enemies with a beam rifle.

This is it. you HAVE to be trolling.

Even people who didn't like 3 thought this was great.
this IS what we've been waiting for, and Most, if not EVERYONE
enjoyed it.
