If it had actually been more than a year project like the other halo games. I'm not saying it's a bad game...I actually loved the hell out this game and the only reason I put it down was because of reach. Reach had more to offer, but again if ODST had matchmaking as well as all the customization as reach's FF I would still be playing it today.

Yeah. Considering only 10 people were working on this. it's pretty fricken amazing. I applaud you, 10 employees. For doing what the other Hundred couldn't.

If you're passionate about the thing you're talking about, I'll always lend an ear.

Really?
Only 10?

Fudge, where the hell where these guys during Reach?

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Have fun with that. Reach may have more to offer in terms of Multiplayer and Forge, but ODST is the better game, imo. Reach was an abomination. The multiplayer was catered to the casual players with things like Armor Lock. Full-Customizable FF doesn't even feel like you're in a Firefight. I prefer ODST's any day. Reach's campaign was a disgrace to the Halo series/universe. It was more of a really crappy side story with unlikable characters. ODST had probably one of the best, if not the best, story/campaign.

A standalone competitive multilayer and a longer campaign.

personally, i think that this game would have been amazing if you had started in an odst pod in the beginning of firefight.....imagine, the me loads up and the cutscene starts, u step inside your pod and it starts to move along the track, the door closes and the bottom opens up revealing the 10 mile drop......then launching, plummeting towards the waiting map below. youlnd with a large thud. the door blasting off (and if with friend or two, you meet up with them) imagine that for the start of firefight......AMAZING

The universe is probably littered with the one-planet graves of cultures which made the sensible economic decision that there's no good reason to go into space--each discovered, studied, and remembered by the ones who made the irrational decision.

See I never understand you people, you will stick around for over 8 months constantly saying how bad reach is instead of finding another game. However many do not share those view points and play regularly. Well I guess if you ever look for a job you can put down consistency as a skill set. /sarcasm

That would actually be insane.
