I believe mombasa streets could have been better, like a GTA 4 sort of city (size wise) and with lots of buildings you could enter. All in all it is a great game, but yeah the mombasa streets could have been better.

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'm a Halo campaign player, and I loved ODST campaign, too bad it wasn't a matchmaking thingy.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

I completely agree.

ODST was good, espically the original firefight that was awesome, Reach just came out too soon for ODST to be really appreciated by the public.

ODST is very good game but it needs: matchmaking,customgames and forge

Hi.

ODST is freaking awesome. If people on my friendslist played ODST, I'd play that over Reach any day.

It'd be a much faster paced and balanced multiplayer experience than Reach too. They should've just made ODST in the 3 years they took to make Reach.

It wasn't supposed to have new Matchmaking or any crap like that. Because ODST takes the same time as the regular Halo 3 does. So there was just supposed to be a new Campaign, the only new thing there was, is firefight.

  • 12.31.2010 4:36 PM PDT

If Halo didnt have competetive multiplayer, this would definately be the most played. Roaming around Mombassa Streets is the "Bee's Knee's".

  • 12.31.2010 5:36 PM PDT

i agree completly odst was the best campagin i played and i still love it

Yeah it is about a matter of opinion, I am currently very close to recon right now, but i would not be able to get it without ODST. Point is ODST has had the best Storyline in a long time,until Reach recently came out. Great storyline ODST, but Reach has beaten it.

It was the worst Halo and was overpriced. The only thing I can say that was exceptional in it was the soundtrack.

That is the sole reason it sucked. If they had more time it may have been better

  • 01.01.2011 4:27 AM PDT

That is the entire reason, the matchmaking. It would be very complex though to Forge a Firefight map. The matchmaking though definitely should've been included.

I think matchmaking wasnt involved because no sheilds, there would be a lot of swearing and "rage quits" for the people who cant handle taking cover once your being shot at

I live on that one house, on that one street you know?

Combat Evolved had best campaign.
Reach had best multiplayer.

So She Liked My Tie...

Its a great game its just the Mombasa Streets part i don't like, its boring as hell, but if you play with a friend its more entertaining :)

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

I loved ODST because you got to play as an ODST. After Halo 3 I wanted to play more as a ODST than a spartan because I wanted to know what they did and what how it felt like to be an ODST.

I love Reach, too. Actually, I loved all the Halos. Just like how I love all the Assassins creed games, the Mass Effect games, the elder scrolls games, the Farcry games, zelda games, and etc. Lets just say I am a fanboy for every game out there.

I just wish they made the assassinations for Halo Reach and put it in other Halos. Hopefully 343 industries does that.

Join SIP today! We smell good. Promise.


It's like a gigantic snowball, rolling down a mountain, eating kids on the way.

I think you'll find that the majority of Reach players and Halo 3 players played ODST, but didnt appreciate the subtle details of it. They wanted a game where they could run through and kill everything in under fifteen minutes.
Whereas ODST was more about understanding a storyline, with all it's cool, dark, subtle aspects, and reliving something.

How people compare it to Reach and Halo 3, i dont know.
Its a completely different game, let alone campaign.

  • 01.02.2011 5:23 PM PDT

I got a new TV recently (a 40" Sharp "Aquos" LED LCD), and because my Reach disk is destroyed, I popped in ODST.

Loved it. I think it's my 2nd favorite Halo game now, behined only CE.

The Mombassa streets segments are hauntingly beautiful, and really give the player a somber feeling. Nothing is cooler than the feeling of avoiding a covie patrol, also.

Mombassa Streets is the best part, IMO. I've never seen a cooler atmosphere in a game. Not even Bioshock.
