Why are we here?

It was made for players to get a new view of the HALO universe from a normal marine instead of a supersoldier SPARTAN. It's just a continuation to the HALO universe that fills in open gaps of the story, same with HALO: Reach.

I intend to live forever, or die trying,

so far, so good.

It was made to give the players the feel of being an ODST by telling a great story.


It brodens the Halo story. And also tells it from a new prospective "ODST". I liked ODST, and know that most people do to.

Plus, FireFight is alot of fun. Hope Reach has it, and that you can also play it on Multi-Player and Forged Made Maps.

RIP Halo 2: November 9, 2004-May 10, 2010
I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

To make us pay $60 on something that should be a $10 DLC

"Dude, what are you doing right now?"
"Uhh... Heh, my mom."
"Dude... What?"

Halo 3: ODST was made to reveal the fate of New Mombasa after the Slipspace Incident of 2552.

Plus, it served as both a financial boost, and a doorway to squad-based tactics [and that delicious Reach Beta.

ODST was made to acclimate Halo fans to being in a squad and not being Master Chief so when Reach popped around it wouldn't be such a huge shock.

ODST gave us a look into the events of Halo 2 from a diffrent perspective by playing a character everyone has always wanted to play, all of the Halo 3 maps on one disc, the chance to get recon armor, the list can go on but these are some reasons why it was made.

"the king of person who would take a wraith down for fun no i would do it because i would look badass" -Me

I like stuff.

Probably to tide us over til Halo Reach. Also to have a Halo game where you don't feel indestructible like when playing as MC. It was awesome, too.

It was to appeal a new story to those in the community who wanted to play as an ODST.

  • 02.10.2010 2:31 PM PDT

It was made to be cool and prove Bungie can make an epic game in a year and a half.

ODST was a fan service.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

It is designed to hold us through until Halo: Reach comes out.


It even failed at that apparently.


What does this complaining achieve? Really?

  • 02.12.2010 9:49 AM PDT

for money and for someing diffrent and its part of the story i got the story.

I dont even see why it was bothered to be made.

The confusing end of the game will never be answered and the ODST characters will never make a re-appearence.

Explain to me why this was made.

NOT flaming, just making a valid point, Discuss.

Halo 3 ODST is an expansion to Halo 3. Like most expansions, they are made to provide players with a different perspective, follow a sort of back-story and simply enjoy more of the actual game, without a direct sequal. So ODST is simply an expansion, not meant to be a sequal, so that we get to see more of Halo 3.
