Let's Lay the Smack-down on this Halo extension. ODST is an awesome campaign and addictive new Firefight mode make ODST a thrilling new entry in the Halo franchise. It does nothing less then delivers. When you first start ODST you wake up all alone in a hostile city. Pockets of enemies are hiding in the nearly pitch-black environment and your allies are nowhere to be found. In the opening moments of Halo 3: ODST, you are vulnerable and aimless--two elements that have never been explored in a Halo game before. These quiet, moody scenes flow into the spirited, high-energy battles the franchise is known for, but this feeling of desolation never fully dissolves. ODST is an awesome entry in the franchise because it not only showcases the elements that have made previous games in the series so explosively fun, but it also introduces a handful of new ideas that add a unique spin on the classic formula. The most exhilarating of the new features is the Firefight mode, a cooperative battle against a never-ending swarm of covenant soldiers that is as intense and rewarding as anything that has appeared in the series. Whether you love the solitude of the single-player campaign, the camaraderie of cooperative encounters, or the blood lust of multiplayer competition, Halo 3: ODST is a fantastic package.
The Good:
Firefight mode is a blast, Campaign is well-paced, with tons of great moments, The between level sections are moody and engaging , same great multiplayer from Halo 3, with three new maps, and most important No Flood!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Bad:
Multiplayer is basically from Halo 3, Damage indicators are annoying, and no dual wielding in story mood...wtf is that about!
