Halo 3: ODST


So one of the hottest new arrivals is Halo 3 ODST. This is a sequel to one of the greatest games ever on the XBOX, but yet this sequel takes you back in time a little bit.

This all takes place in between Halo 2 and Halo 3. And the biggest part, you're not playing as Masterchief. Nope. Masterchief is somewhere else saving the universe. So instead you are a regular human, part of your ODST squad.

The game begins with you playing as The Rookie. Your squad however is not anywhere to be found after your ship crashes. It is just you alone in the dark, looking to fight through Covanent troops and find your squadron.

Now some aspects of the ODST that you will notice are different from Masterchief are...

-No Radar
-Noticeable visor display
-Cannot duel-wield weapons
-Run slower
-Don't jump as high

- Quote Joseph Staten: "But you can still T-Bag!"

Basically how Staten summarized it was that this is basically like the MasterChief from Halo Combat Evolved. Not only is your character not as powerful as Masterchief from Halo 2 and 3, but also the pistols are on-shot kills when you get a headshot. So this is a pretty classic look for those Halo Combat Evolved players like myself.

Anyways, it's a really in-depth look to Halo 3: ODST which looks just NASTY GOOD!!! The full demo can be viewed at http://xbox360.ign.com/dor/objects/852871/bungie-project-2/videos/halo3odst_e3demo_01_60809.html
