Subject: Odst rip off?!

Why does everyone complain that ODST is a rip off? It's a friggin Halo game! Be grateful! Seriously? Would you rather not have a new Halo game until May 3rd? Some people need to grow up.

Because it wasn't worth $60. That's not to say it's a bad game or anything, but it was a bit of a rip off.


I certainly played it long enough and enjoyed it a lot more than most $60 games I buy.

Non Nobis Nascimur - We are not born for ourselves.

It was a tad overpriced, but it was very enjoyable. Probably has the best Halo campaign since CE.

Thinking with Portals since '07

Battlefield 3 sucks.

i'd say it was worth it

Halo 3: ODST's price was fully justified content wise (as long as you never bought Halo 3 or any of the map packs).

When you think that you have it all is the moment that you can lose it. Don't think ahead if you can't think for the present.

Hmmmm, About 24 dollars for each of the map packs exluding the Heroic maps, the campaign and the firefight mode could easily have picked up the 36 dollar margin considering the value of the campaign and how long it took to complete each of the achievements.

mongooses are the best. Remember that.

Do you like to forge? Want a place to share your maps? Want to join a friendly forging group? Plasmic Forgers

By new game May 3rd you mean the Halo Reach Beta right?

Halo Reach comes out in the fall and accourding to my calender May isn't in the fall. Secondly if ODST did come out in May that would of been great to have a game in the summer time to play.

May not have been worth it to you, but thousands (that don't bother to post on forums) disagree. (and many got the game as a gift)

And (for the kabillionth time) Microsoft set the price. Not Bungie.

If at first you fail... Reload.

Actually you need to edit your thing because without ODST there would not of been a beta on may third it would have been sooner or later but also harder to get into.

The vast amount of complaints in this very forum, not to mention common sense justification says otherwise.

Statistics have meaning, sometimes.

You act as if this forum is a reflection of every fan, it isn't in the Optimatch Forum why would it be different here? If you refer to statistics as ratings, I fail to see how 83% or so shows failure or disapproval.

Oh grow up. The game is fun and has been out for awhile now. I think the price is justified as it gives a backup for players if their hard drive dies. Firefight is awesome and the campaign was on the same quality as all the other Halo games. If you don't like it, then that is your problem. But do not clutter the forum with another of the same exact topic.
