Subject: Should I buy this game?

Should I buy this game even though reaches release is around the corner? I'm guessing the Halo games are a must for a fan which I am. But, if i get halo now there is a chance i might not be able to get reach til christmas then. Just looking for advice from someone that has played odst and possibly the beta. Plus if reach is the last halo i guess i wouldnt be in much of a rush to buy it anyways
dont post messages telling me that it is my money and that i should choose.
tell me what you think
also tell me if anyone will eb on odst even though reach will be out

I've played both ODST and the Halo:Reach beta and I can say that they are, from what I've experienced, both great. Reach looks promising and ODST is at $40USD and has some decent replay value to the campaign and Firefight mode. Be warned that there is no online search to ODST, you can only play with friends (my knowledge as of the last time I played). I still play it occasionally and you could add me if you wish. I would play with you if you so chose to buy ODST-KaW x ANGEAL x

Tough. I'd say get Reach first, and around christmas, ODST will be cheaper.

Possibility. That is a point I blindly overlooked. My apologies.

I bought every Halo game to say I've bought them all. They're all good games, but if you don't want to do it for the same reason as me, I'd say get Reach because it has firefight, but better. If you want to play the ODST campaign, go for it!
