Your words have paid off Sector.

This is what we need. More people appreciating ODST.

ODST was really a great game. I really enjoyed my time with it.

I just started over with the campaign last night. It's so immersive. The atmostphere is just...stunning. The game is truly amazing and so underrated.

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

My experience playing Cairo Station on Legendary

Awesome!

Also, I recommend playing through on Normal, Heroic tops and just taking the game slowly. Pay close attention to the amount of subliminal hints the SI gives you. It's mind boggling!

I'm looking forward to a report when you're finished!

Questions lead to learning, learning leads to kowledge, knowledge leads to understanding, understanding leads to peace.

I don't think it was underated, not by me anyways. I honestly thought it had one of the best campaigns I'd ever played. EVER. And the musical score was to die for.

Half of what I say is true. The other half are also lies.

Bip, Bap, Bam! I love the pistol. It has a use, along with everything else there. I would say that the weapons balancing in ODST is the best in all halo games.

The only thing I agree with is the music aspect.

The only point I wish to argue is Character. I agree wholeheartedly that not going with MC was a great choice, however our avatar had ZERO personality. If we were to put ourselves in his shoes, then I do not see the point. I do not have ODST training, I do not have a complete sense of this version of Earth and its colonies, and therefore I cannot simply put myself behind that mask. The other characters were so generic and cycled that it totally ruined the game for me.

Gameplay was just as good as other Halos, and the story was decent simply didn't have the bulk of the others, understandably.

  • 08.09.2012 6:10 PM PDT

Yes, many people under-estimate this sweet gem.

It is awesome. The characters, atmosphere, music, just everything.

I cant even explain it. Halo players should pop this in after awhile. Makes you appreciate some things more.

I love Halo 3 and enjoy making Halo Reach montage's. I find all of the vidmasters in halo 3 and odst entertaining. I have all the vidmasters but I will help anyone who needs them out of pure fun. If you need help message me over live. Be sure to check out the halo reach montage's on youtube channel name is Heatedbarrels.

Agreed. ODST is just a fun and good game.

I haven't finished my replay, but the more and more I play the more and more I can't comprehend why people hate this game so much. It's fantastic! Such a treat for the Halo fans who like a good story and who like Halo lore overall.

I recommend that everybody goes back and plays the campaign from time to time. It's just so immersive. The Super is probably one of my favorite characters and (in a nutshell) it's only an AI who tells me where to go and give me hints, yet it's a lovable character. That's saying something.

It was so fun killing Grunts with the Pistol.

(To discuss Halo 4.)

It is a good game with a good campaign and good OST.

But it is nowhere near Halo 2 in Campaign Story, OST quality (Halo 2 had a lot more variety than ODST, the tracks were as awesome as ODST, and it was longer, and more emotional).

Agreed. I liked the change of pace it brought. It was really fresh.

For Carnage Apply Within BEST GROUP EVAR!!!

Well said. I strongly dislike the people who say the gameplay is confusing,its to dark. Well it's the best halo in my opinion and it has an amazing noir feel and sound. They can go play their CoD.

Not only is ODST a fresh addition to the Halo series, but it's a nice breather from the standard FPS. It goes against the standard GO HERE, DO THIS stencil that has become the FPS genre. This time around, you take things slower and are almost forced to experience the Universe in way unheard of.

I agree, the atmosphere of that game is incredible

Completely agree here.

I just started playing it again and the atmosphere and music is amazing. I love it.

Currently studying Computer Science & Software engineering. Hope to work on mobile devices of the future! When a certain game's credits roll, look out for my name! ;)

You will -blam!- bricks when you see what game it is! =)

Just finished yesterday again. I have no problems with the game, its a different Halo game buts its good in my book.

Agreed. Unlike Halo: Reach, ODST was very enjoyable. If 343 ever makes an ODST 2, I hope they make it right.

Bottom line? We need more games like ODST!

Afraid not. It's nice here though, we pretty much keep to ourselves.
