Does Halo ODST rly deserve its score?!? 9/10

Ive been playing Halo ODST for a while now, and wow... In no way does it deserve a 9 outta 10.... The whole game is just mediocre and feels extremely rushed and tacked on to the Halo series.

(Raises flame sheild) aaannnnddddd ..... Discuss!!

How doesn't 'deserve' it? The reviewer enjoyed the game and rated it accordingly, I don't see what else the game has to do.

I'm thinking 8.5-9.0, is the sweet spot and since it's on spot it does, but the ending was crap. :?

If you dont think it deserves its score, vote for yourself. That's what that little meter next to the GS score is for. Since your asking, Im assuming you didnt play it? Also, generally, people seem to enjoy it.

More like a 7. It should've been a $20-$25 add-on for Halo 3, not a separate $60 game imo.

And btw, I did like the game, but I don't think it's a AAA title, and it certainly wasn't worth $60.

I bought this game...seemed like the only one who didnt like it at my college. It was so boring to me that I let my little brother beat it. Halo 3 was good though.

Yes it does. Campaign is great fun. Story is told very well and is a noce addition the the Halo lore. Firefight is a great multiplayer addition to the franchise that should become a staple.

ODST is still a top tier title regardless of antihype on System Wars.

i think they forgat to mention that the expansion pack is $60 dollars to the reviewer.

the fact that odst is $60 bucks just so it gets a review here i dont think it deserves the AAA score.

I think its worth 25$. Im sorry but its halo 3 minus the dual wielding and swords and open areas. Firefight is no excuse to why this game should be 60$. Its just a multiplayer bot match with different difficulties.

It would if it only had a matchmaking for Firefight... It's hard to have 3 friends playing the game at once, and I'm not going to look in forums who is playing firefight at a given time, that 's just too much...

First of all, your poll is flawed, you basically give us the option to say it deserves a ten or it doesn't deserve a 9. I think it deserves a nine, quality gameplay, endless replay value (I've already played firefight twice as long as I have horde mode, and beaten the campaign three times). Plus every Halo 3 multiplayer map is included? Talk about a complete package.

Yes, it does.Stevo_the_gamer

wow. these cows really need to stop. it got the score it got. so what? if you not happy with it, then too bad. i played infamous, and i didnt think it deserved a 9. but thats what it got. so oh well. im not complaining. i didnt think mgs 4 deserved a 10 either. but thats how it goes. live with it.

To me it does. It had one of the best Halo campaigns I had ever played. I would definitely put it up there alongside Halo CE.

[QUOTE="II-FBIsniper-II"][QUOTE="Ninja-Hippo"] Hmmm, i would have to disagree with that. The Lost and the Damned has exactly the same environment as GTAIV. It's still in Liberty City, so while you get a new character and a new story, the game itself remains the same. If Lost and the Damned were ODST, you'd be playing as the Rookie alongside the ODSTs through the same levels you played in Halo 3. RideUrLightning

Indeed.

A quality game can be overpriced, but in the end it would still be quality.

[QUOTE="RideUrLightning"][QUOTE="II-FBIsniper-II"] The Lost and Damned did have new indoor environments, but that is not my point. The Lost and Damned has lasted me much longer than Halo 3 ODST. The story is longer, there are more multiplayer modes, and new side missions for me to play through. I'm comparing the value, not the content.SpinoRaptor24

Actually, he's a pretty well known PS3 fanboy here that bashes the 360 and praises the PS3 every chance he gets.

It does if you never had halo 3 before. But if you didn't then no

With a $60 pricetag? Absolutely not.Zoso-8

srs, Halo ODST had like, just as much content that lots of 60 bucks games have. Why should ODST be the only one that's penalized for that?
