i know you're just posting these in good fun, but some people, as shown, are taking this seriously. They don't realize one of those is a user review and the other is just from some random obscure website.

To be quite honest though I think that the very fact that this will have the full Halo 3 multiplayer plus firefight should more than compensate for a short fall in length of gameplay. I have never known Bungie to release an inferior product so I believe that this will still deliver. My suspicions are that MS felt in the absence of gears that they needed something on the shelves for this holiday.

As long you can find a good group of friends to play firefight with, it will be well worth the price of admission.

IMHO

i just want to put this out there. Both these review sites don't even count or even be listed on gamerankings/metacritic. So both these reviews are not credible at all.

Its all part of the fun of system wars and the reason it has drawn me back. This place lives and dies on the opinions of a small group of journalists to justify the purchases of a generation that is way to driven by trends and fads. It is good to watch the blatant fanboys argue back and forth over such nonsense.

"MLB 09 is not exclusive"

"Mass Effect 8.5 flop!!"

"FFXIII not exclusive"

LOL it is so good to know that this stuff is a priority for some people. It is fantastic to me that this is serious business for some people lol

(For those playing at home ;) )

Never heard of either of those websites. I'll wait for more credible sources like IGN and GT.

Besides, this website seems like they didn't even play it.

Agreed. However this is why I am worried about the review score as it now needs to be rated as a full game. I can't help but think of Banjo which had a ton of content but launched at $40 with a free game if you pre-ordered. Keep in mind that I live in Australia so for me ODST is going to set me back $99.95.

At least being an aussie I will save money on L4D2 (F you OFLC!!!!)

Still, I wouldn't hope for higher than an 8.0.

What I love even more is how these "reviews" are from sources that don't even know their facts. ODST was NEVER announced as a DLC over XBL. It was originally thought of being a stand alone expansion ON DISC and then expanded further into a full fledged game. Nothing more then a pathetic hater with a failed attempt at bashing ODST. When the "real" reviews start flowing, the haters will be eating another plate of their own words.

So Uncharted 2 should be DLC?? It uses the same engine. Ratchet?? uses the same engine. GTA vice city/san andreas? uses the GTA3 engine. You were saying?

I kind of expected that. With Bungie first announcing it will be priced at 30 usd and then MS increasing the price, that made me think it was just some effort from MS to milk the franchise even more. I just hope they don't do the same with Halo: Reach. I'll still give the game a rent and will decide whether to buy it or not until then.

When I play it on Monday I'll have to post a review of it on my blog. Then we'll have 3 "credible" reviews.

i still wouldnt trust these reviews. considering the professional ones arent allowed to be shown until the embargo is over, that would mean that these ones are amateurs, meaning, any of us could do them. in fact, one of them is a wiki like site, where an average joe does it. the other is a wii website, and theres also a review from a site that has only done a few reviews (i counted 4) in the 3 months it has been in service. id wait until the embargo is done with before posting stuff.

Can't say I care about reviews at this point. Its already pre-ordered, and I doubt Bungie could really screw it up badly. Plus, what the hell are those sites?

Cows won't care. Even after the embargo they'll just scrounge what low cred sites they can find off of metacritics for the most negative reviews and take those as "honesty".

Meh. These reviews are pretty incredible, so I won't think much of them. IGN's supposed to have a review up later today (9/19), so we'll wait and see what they say. I'm actually getting the game in a few hours, and since I've been anticipating this game pretty intensely, I may get around to posting an honest review of the game.

So it will get great scores from the majority of major reviewers but flop here and recieve a AA/AAA score on Metacritic?
