Halo 3 ODST Review

I'm not going to spend a lot of time on this one, because the game isn't all that much different from Halo 3. Pretty much think of it as 2 expansion packs. Part 1 of that expansion pack is the new Campaign, where you play the role of The Rookie on a unit of soldiers named ODST. You pretty much wander around a dark city center and find out what happened to your crew members earlier in the day (you play as them during the flashback periods).

Part 2 of the expansion pack is Firefight mode. Think of it as a complicated version of Nazi Zombies from CoD: WaW. You pretty much team up with 3 other people and take down waves and waves of more difficult enemies.

Honestly, I wasn't a big fan of the game, but that's because I don't care that much about Halo 3. The campaign was fun, but not $60 fun. Same with Firefight mode. They give you Halo 3 multiplayer on the 2nd disc that comes with it, as well as all the maps that have been released, and a few new ones.

Here's how you decide if you want to buy it. If you kind of like the Halo games, but find yourself getting bored with them and spending more time on a game like CoD, then this isn't for you.

If you liked Halo 3 and it's multiplayer, but never got around to buying it, then this is worth the money. If you have Halo 3 already, I would only advise you to get ODST if you absolutely love Halo 3.

Otherwise there will be a lot of really good games coming out and this is just an overpriced expansion pack.
