If you play a Microsoft CD backwards you can hear demonic voices.
The scary part is that if you play it forward it installs Windows.

me and 3 others were all playing for vidmaster endure and were 4th set last round when all 4 of us got simultaneously disconnected, but none of us had connection issues because we were able to sign in to live immediately after it happened



Yea exact same thing happened to us.
About 5 mins from finishing it kicked us into the lobby.
No one lost connection and we were all still in the party.

I ran into what I thought was a "broken" optican station. It only had the screen and audio. Come to think of it, i think it was the wrong screen for the station but I have a video, so check it out.

So is this like a bug? or glitch? or something else?

Anyone get audio skipping during that little video that plays at the title screen of the second disc?(Multiplayer disc) I left it running while I was on the phone for like 15 minutes. The little trailer that plays showing gameplay had sound that skipped like a CD. My 2nd disc is scratchless. My Xbox 360 is brand new and a Jasper. Anyone else have this problem?

I always had that problem on the regular halo 3 disc, it happened almost every other time a video played while the main menu was up.

Idk what's going on with mine but I know that I don't like it! I can't even play campaign because every time I try and start it I always get a error message. "Disc Unreadable" I also get the same message when I play Firefight... All my other games work just fine but ODST doesn't work period. Any one know what is wrong and what I need to do to be able to play a game I just bought?

Thank you man. I was getting paranoid that my 360 was messed up or something. I already went through two.

My Firefight lags out the wazoo... It stinks because It only happens when I am playing firefight. Halo 3 Mythic disk works perfectly fine, but firefight has gone to the pooper...

  • 09.25.2009 9:28 AM PDT

  • 09.25.2009 9:29 AM PDT

yesterday i went to game stop to see about buying ODST. I found the used game shelf full of ODST, they are already selling it for 40$ there were about 15 copies in the used game section.

I did not buy the game. I have never seen such a reaction from halo fans. usually people are playing Bungie games for months, even years. I couldent help but think to myslef that this was a little out of the ordinary.

So i come home and go online to see if theres anything here on the forums. only to find multiple threads discussing how this game was a "rip off" and was not satisfying.

these posts were not just cry baby posts, many people have put together well thought out arguments, supporting the idea that this game was simply created to milk the cash cow called halo.

I love halo, I started playing halo the day halo 1 came out on the origional xbox. i have purchased all of the games and map packs up to this point.

i will not buy a new copy of ODST from bungie, im just going to wait till its 20 dollars for a used copy.

i think the main problem is how it lags at random times when playing co-op, bugie needs to fix that and if they could add firefight matchmaking, that way you can join a game with ppl that way u can have 3 other ppl to play with instead of relying on ur friendlist which ppl might not be on. other then that good game, but those improvements would make da game better

Bunige did a great job on the game but truth be told I would not have purchased this game if I had realized there was no matchmaking for Firefight. That's on me...I didn't do my homework. The quality is exceptional so I have no doubt most who buy this game (and know what they are getting) will be happy. For me...based on the way I play...I just paid $60 for an expansion pack. But like I said...that's my bad, not Bungie's.

  • 09.25.2009 9:50 AM PDT

Signatures are for squares.

The 1 second delay in button commands when you are playing coop/firefight and you aren't host. It was a problem in Halo 3, 2 years ago, and it's still a problem now.

That is all.

I've noticed a few ways to reduce firefight lag.
The main one is keep out of vehicles, play small daylight maps,
Stick together.

Mainly they reduce the rendering it needs to generate everything in view and walking on or whatever, it takes away alot of fun but at least stops the lag.

One of my friends (I can give you his gamertag if I need) has gone through Uplift Reserve at least four times now, on Legendary and solo without shooting or firing a weapon and still he has not unlocked the achievement. I don't know what to tell him so I came on here to find a solution and found this thread.

How about the fact that you can spend countless hours in a single firefight experience when all the sudden someone gets a hiccup in their internet connection and everyone is booted out??? Didn't you guys learn from the original halo 3 campaign? Do you know how annoying this is?

I love firefight, but the fact that we can all get disconnected because someone has some internet problems during our session is out-of-control. I don't understand why you wouldn't make it drop-in and drop-out for firefight? The covenant mobs that are dropped are not different regardless of 1,2,3, or 4 persons playing and you share lives. So why not make it drop-in and drop-out?

No different if you had set-up matchmaking to end if someone disconnected. Everyone would be furious because there is always someone who disconnects (not always on purpose).

Does anyone know if the host selection for ODST is the same as Halo 3?? Or has there been any changes made to the selection of the host for ODST?

I don't like bungie, i just like halo...

I've played through the game once now and partially for the second time. My grife is with the flashbacks that occur for each beacon. Im not too sure that was the best way to make the game because after a while i didn't care what happened to the sniper rifle or the gauss cannon which was destroyed.

Luckily, after completing the game i was able to free roam which was OK but the map is still small and the campaign short. There is potential for it to be expanded if bungie can be assed.

My tip to bungie in caps: MAKE DOWNLOADABLE MISSIONS TO UNDERTAKE LIKE IN GRAND THEFT AUTO, I WOULD PAY!

dont flame my post, i wont be reading anything after pressing submit.

I'm still sore over the lack of 4-player split-screen. It was possible in Halo 3. Why not now? Nothing kills a launch party like finding out half of the players have been excluded.

I think he runs faster because if you read in the halo books a spartan weighs around 320 pounds and an ODST is WAY lighter on his feet so therefore he runs faster, vehicles drive faster, etc..
