Subject: ODST campaign is underrated!

As far as campaigns go, I loved ODSTs! I think I might have liked it even more than I liked Reach! One of the best things about ODST was the music. Not saying the others Halos didn't have better songs, but ODST just seemed to match the music with the situation perfectly.

What do you think?

Ive recently brought all the halo games with me to uni, finished halo 1 last week, halo 2 yesterday, but odst, did it all tonight. Whenever i start playing it, i get hooked and have to finish it, great campaign

I <3 drop shields

I agree that ODST had better music than Reach. Also, if you really take the time to explore New Mombassa it's actually quite a fun game. I think the reason most people don't like it is because they think of the city part as a chore.

rule of thumb: double tap

ODST- best campaign and co-op experience ever, you can tell by my avatar im a diehard ODST fan

Sry but no i think it was a good game in context but one ODST rookie running around a city trying to find the rest of his squad is a little far fetched from my point of view i'm not saying it was bad but i just think that Bungie could have spent there time making the next part of halo 3 instead of an add on game that makes no sense.

this is just my opinion!
i really don't want 200 messages that say i suck or something for saying this.

You suck so much !!! Ha-ha. JK. In all seriousness, I thought it was a cool idea. What about it did you find far fetched ? And if it wasn't a good concept, what's your concept for a good game of this kind ? Am just probing here, not trying to be jerky. In terms of the 3 thing, there were deadlines and quotas etc. They shipped 3 as the best product it could be. ODST was kind of a fan service side project. (And yes, I know it cost sixty bucks and Buck sucked. I'm just like everyone here.)

I just think that one ODST guy running around with no way to contact his highly trained military troopers one set down from spartan team. You see what i mean? One other thing, the alien thing well that story just stops kinda all of a sudden like it didn't have a STORY CLIMAX STORY END it kinda just ended after the climax which was better then other halo games. ( unless you have played REACH!)

again this is just MY OPINION

I do have to say that Halo 3 ODST did have a twist to it though i still would have liked to see a sequel to the master chief story instead of this. I might change my mind if some one could give me a straight answer on the time line of ALL the games. THX

ODST is my favorite campaign.

  • 11.29.2010 8:19 PM PDT

I'm the cult of personality,
I call it like i see it, if i feel the need to be blunt and to the point, then i will, if i feel the need to be very detailed, i will, im here to stay and im here to do things my way, if you respect that or not is your choice, not mine,
and don't worry, while i don't agree with everyone's opinion, i do respect everyone's opinion.

i think its awesome =D

  • 11.29.2010 8:27 PM PDT

The only thing I liked was the beginning scene when Buck first shows up and then the fight with the Brute

That Really got me pumped up :)

I think the game was trying to recapture some of the CE-ness that was lost in subsequent games. Especially in 3, it kind of felt like you were one guy (even though that guy was Chief) among tons of others. I see what you're saying about not being able to contact your group; even with Covenant jamming, it seems kind of strange. But, it's a plot device to make you feel alone. The only Cortana-free level in CE had a strong effect on me. I really felt alone, and wanted to get her back ASAP. The Rookie has a smaller time to suck you in, so, ODST kind of Left 4 Dead plunges you into the middle of everything from the start. Man, you like Reach's story better than the other Halos ? To each her/his own. Keep Haloing. :P

I love the feel of a city overrun with Covenant right the corner. It makes you feel alive.

I do not want to stop asking. I do not ask to stop wanting.

CE had the greatest campaign, followed by Reach, and then ODST. 3 was a huge disappointment. 2 had an excellent story, but the weapon balancing turned the game upside down. If Reach or CE's weapon balancing and wide open spaces were in 2, it would have had the greatest campaign.
