It was named Halo 3 because Bungie wanted to be clear that it used the same engine as Halo 3, not Halo 2.

But since the game spans both Halo 2 and Halo 3, it's k.

PEANUT-BUTTER SLAP!

It was built on Halo 3's engine, came with Halo 3's multiplayer, and used Halo 3's character/weapon/vehicle models. Makes sense to me.

because it came out after Halo 3.

So did Reach. By your logic, Reach = Halo 3: Reach?

Or it could just have been called Halo: ODST and avoided this discussion entirely. :P

(To discuss Halo 4.)

Engine wise it was Halo 3, and they would always put the first installment.

Canon wise, it occurs during Halo 2 and 3 weeks before Halo 3, so...

Im a Brony, if you want to know more about mehttps://www.facebook.com/randy.norris.95 just ask.

I think the story takes place right after Master Cheif leaves new mombasa?? I would actually love to see a covenant side story from 343 studious.

I LOVE HALO! Better than any other game.

But I love Halo 3 and Combat Evolved - never got the chance to play Halo 2 :(

Halo 3, because it runs on the same engine..

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

Halo 3: ODST was named that because of a few reasons:

1.) It has the same engine as Halo 3.

2.) It takes place during both games (I think).

3.) It uses Halo 3's Multiplayer.

4.) It is basically DLC (good DLC).

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

I think it deserves it's own independent title, "Halo ODST."

smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

I personally call it Halo 2: ODST, mainly because it takes place in Halo 2, but that's just me.

It should just be called ODST. Halo is nowhere to be found in the entirety of the campaign or story. So even putting Halo in the title was just dumb.
