I'm Sorry Halo 3 ODST is A RIPOFF!!!1

Bungie knows their rabid fanbase would not like for some random tidbit to be thrown in just to appease them. They're not going to alter the story just to squeeze in the MC. I'm done replying to you seeing how you know absolutely NOTHING about this game yet you feel the need to bash it. It looks as if you put in your blog that your set to give up on gaming. Do us all a favor and give up here at SW as well seeing how you don't know what you're talking about. Nedemis

OK we're going to pay 60$ for an expansion that comes with a beta to halo reach, 3 new maps, and the actual game itself or expansion.

According to developers the game's campaign is a little shorter than halo 3s, which by no means was long at all (unless you're a bk), and firefight is the only thing looking interesting in this game right now. the 3 maps and reach beta id say are probably worth 15 to 20$ max alone. But I'm trying to judge just halo 3 odst, not the add-ons. You're paying 60$ for an 8 hour campaign and firefight, the only way this game has value is if you didn't already have the original halo 3 so you could play the multiplayer.

Sorry halo fans this is a huge ripoff and I dont see it selling millions like halo 1,2, and 3, why? it's a freaking expansion and tons of people have moved on from halo 3, i actually think it was a bad move to include 3 into the title, and with so many other games calling this fall I'd see more kids picking up mwf2 than this ripoff sorry.

Prologue didn't have nearly as much content as ODST. Also, ODST won't be available in superior form. Prologue was basically a preview of GT5, which can be had with 10 times the content and far superior for $20 more.

Dude I almost forgot about that part, thanks for reminding me.

*goes to preorder ODST*

ODST is a steal. The campaign is about as long as a Gears 1/2, KZ2, or R2. And for someone like me who just got into Halo 3 multiplayer, I get all the maps. Plus new co-op.

An entirely new campaign and Firefight sounds great to me, I really don't care. $60 is pocket change as far as I'm concerned, complaining about it is a waste of time.Floppy_Jim

this. u may not see the value in it. but im sure countless otheres do..

Yes it is. I'm getting the special edition for the controller so I'm gonna be saving $10 at least.II-FBIsniper-II

We're paying $60 for two discs; which contain the 8-hour-long campaign, Firefight, "the complete Halo 3 multiplayer experience" + 3 new maps, and a beta for Halo Reach.scorch-62

I'll be making it last a few hours more by playing it on heroic first. Is anyone else going to do this?

I know its five because that's how long it takes to beat Halo 3. :| II-FBIsniper-II

And it's not the complete Halo 3 MP experience because that's what they are going to put on the back of the box to make it sound better than what is. It's the same exact thing you already have.

You must be playing on easy. It takes at least 7 hours to beat it on Normal.scorch-62

The complete Halo 3 experience, while it is the exact same that we have, is a 100% accurate statement, though.scorch-62

Legendary Coop is the way to go! I got excited when Bungie said there are no threads holding you and your friends together in the city and that you can mark eachothers map of where you want them to go and you can ambush Covie patrol etc. I guess they have a system where someone cant randomly activate a flashback in coop.SparkyProtocol

I have an xbox and i have halo 3, im just ranting cuz odst is overpriced. Microsoft1234

Umm theres alot of Single player only games that are over priced, beglad ODST has a SP and a MP.

ODST is a spin off. I guess people can call it an expansion because it "expans" the story. But then you have to call every sequel in history of media an expansion which basically takes away the real reason for the name expansion.

Halo:ODST has an entire new campaign, improved A.I. enhanced graphics (From what I can see) it's an entirely different game. And IMO $59.99 is justifiable. I can think of many games that do not have a justifiable $59.99 price tag.

If they did something like this instead, I don't think anyone would be complaining:

"Full" version for people completely new to Halo 3: $60 for Halo 3: ODST's campaign, Firefight, the original Halo 3 campaign, and Halo 3's multiplayer with all maps released to date.

"Expansion" version for current Halo 3 owners who didn't buy the map packs: $40 for Halo 3: ODST's campaign, Firefight, and an install disc containing all maps released to date.

"DLC" options for those who already bought the map packs: $20 for Halo 3: ODST's campaign and Firefight, $10 for the new map pack.

1.) How so? ODST is a completely different game and tells a story that hasnt been told yet and firefight is its own multiplayer mode. The extra DLC is just the wip topping.

2.) That would make Halo 3 comepletely pointless as it is its own game, so to combine it with ODST would be shooting themselves in the foot.

Since there are hardly any 360 exclusives this year, this game hardly feels like a rip off.:P

[QUOTE="GodofBigMacs"]It'd be very much worth it, IMO, if it were around 40-45 dollars...Microsoft1234
