ODST was an Addon, so you cant compare it to a full game.

ODST was awesome, a little short, but awesome.

Admin of Coup D Bungie

PM me any Coup questions you have.

ODST was an expansion, even though it was priced at $60. Like Hotrod said, you can't compare it to a full game. Bungie even said it was an expansion, even though Microsoft was the one that made the price.

Hi! <3

Ok I'll take the bait.

ODST was in development for 1 year with a small team using the same engine as Halo 3.

Reach has been in development for 3 years using the full team, and will have a new engine.

Not a fair comparison by any means.

bungie has proven that a bunch of monkeys sitting in front of keyboards can randomly type out a masterpiece. the thing is, when you go to play the masterpiece, you cant help but notice all the monkey s**t smeared all over it.

it gets real old having to wait months for someone like mlg to clean off all the monkey poo.

if it costs the price of a full game, you compare it to a full game.

if it costs the price of dlc 10$-20$, you compare it to other dlc.

his point still stands. odst is great dlc, but a terrible game.

My wallet definitely thought it was a full game

Blame M$, but yes it was a little over priced.

It is a full game, he just already owned most of it when he bought it.

Really...GTA? Ok...just because you and Tony are -blam!-, doesn't mean that GTA is good. The Ballad of -blam!- Tony just...no...really?

  • 10.26.2009 4:16 PM PDT

oh goody another one.

"The objective of war is not to die for your country, but to make the other bastard die for his."-Jack3dup94......okay i didnt say that.

I don't understand why people thought ODST "sucked". It was a great game. The graphics on mombasa streets blew me away for a 3 year old engine. You also have to remember, Bungie had 1 year to make it. It was orginally DLC. Then they realized it was too big for DLC, and made it a full game. They didn't want the full $60 price, but since Microsoft is Sooooo pooorrr, they jacked the price up. The way they told the campaign through the Rookie's eyes with clues and flashbacks, was genius. Firefight is amazing. The way they integrated co-op into the campaign was great. If you just went from flashback to flashback in the campaign, you missed alot. There were unlockable armory's with mongoose's snipers, and rocket launchers. Don't forget the audio-logs. If you got to 29, you'll notice somthing in Data-hive. But hey, everybody has their opinion, right?

Surprised nobody has made any reference to "The Ballad of -blam!- Tony" and "sucking" yet.

ODST was an expansion you tool It is obvously not going to have a long compain. Most expansions dont even have a comapin they are just multiplayer add ons... The campain was short and not worth $60 but it was a good campain non the less.

It would be amazing if Reach was better than ODST, ODST being a great game and all.

  • 10.26.2009 6:25 PM PDT

Pending...

ODST was way worth over $60. With all dlc included plus half of halo 3 included its well worth the money.

I'm glad I rented the garbage DLC that is ODST.

Please up the campaign length and depth.

Mario Bros. for NES had a longer campaign than ODST. Because ODST sucked so hard, I (along with many people) will be renting Reach prior to purchase.

Take some lessons from:

Half Life 2
Mass Effect
GTA

So ignorant. Firstly, Halo 3 ODSTs campagin was long as Halo 3's and plenty of fun.Secondly, Half Life, Mass Effect, and GTA are completely different games. I for one prefer quality over quantity. If you actually took some time to enjoy the detailed, intresting world Bungie mad, maybe you wouldn't say it was bad. Halo series has more complex level designs and detail then those of the games you listed. ODST's campaign was fun and isn't that what matters? I would gladly play through ODSTs campaign multiple times because it's GOOD. Half Life I definetly wouldn't.

Well I don't agree with the OP ODST's campain was not nearly as long as halo 3's. It took me aproxamatly 4 hours to finsih ODST. it took me about seven to beat halo 3.

GTFO

odst was an add-on, its only purpose was to sate fans until reach came out, it was never supposed to be a full-length game.

Resignation is my virtue; like water I ebb, and flow.
Defeat is merely the addition of time to a sentence I never deserved...but you imposed.

Just because you dont like one of the DLC options for GTA doesnt mean the game that came on the disc offers any less.

Racing, Multiplayer, side missions... and on and on.

Helicopters! /point.


Re-read your statement and apply to Halo 3.
ODST = Expansion/Side story from Halo 3.

Do you really care? you can't automatically see my signature anyway.

ODST didn't suck, you suck!
