Brand new campaign with an open world, non-linear structure. New characters forcing a change in pacing. Markedly darker atmosphere and a different storytelling mechanic.
It'll have ALL the maps in Halo 3 so far as well as new ones, plus Firefight mode.
Sounds good to me.
We're not talking about what you like, we're talking about value here. I don't like MGS4 (or any MGS game I've ever played, for that matter), so am I correct if I say that it's just a stupid waste of money for anyone who buys it? Repacking games that aren't even a gen old with achievements and a resolution increase AFTER removing BC from a console just strikes me as squeezing the udder until it turns blue - and being THANKED for it![QUOTE="Shafftehr"]
[QUOTE="Rza_rectah"] I dont like halo so for me yes problem?
Rza_rectah
I believe the hype is AA based off the last hype thread I saw for it. I think the same.
cainetao11if you think a 5 hour campaign and a new multiplayer game type and a beta that should be free is worth $60 then go ahead and buy it. but i think with the quality of games coming out someone would have to be dumb to throw that money on it. and you just know bungie will make it to where you have to have certain maps (the ODST ones) tomplay all the game types just like they did with the mythic pack. that crap was wrong but it keeps fanboys milking it doesnt it? and i really could care less if you respect me. ill play you in halo 3 anytime and ill show you respect. but the fact is bungie and microsoft are screwing people. if you wanna bend over for them thats your problem.Wow your angry and you need to prove something. Anybody who knows me on this forum knows I tell the truth, and I suck at MP gaming. It's not my thing, so I'm sure you would beat me in MP. Have you always fought with others who don't have the same opinion? How old are you? oh i wasnt aguing with you. i was telling you my opinion. and im old enough not to get ripped off. im also smart enough to wait til a price drop because lets face it. it will be around for a while. are you done? asking how old i am and yet you the one going to cry to the mods? thats just sad but im sure you want the points huh?
[QUOTE="OPuniverse"]hes not asking for hype scores he is asking why is this game getting hyped. Mainly because of the dry spout that the 360 has seen all year in exclusives. It is true that 360 is having a bad year, but so what? ODST was hype because it was made by bungie. It brings a different feeling to the Halo universe, a darker tone. Do you think halo ODST was hype that much? I saw far more uncharted 2 hypes every day than i saw ODST hype.ODST hypes? i saw more hates on here than hypes. It's from bungie, i like it. im hyping it AA. There's a hype thread I made a few days ago, go back and check if you wanna know why.
Rza_rectah
the reason for the hype for halo odst is the same reason there was hype for halo wars, it has halo in the name, heck if they made a halo kitty island aventure game it would probably sell a million, with that being said i was watching a guy play halo odst last night and it look incredibly polished
I'd buy Halo Kitty Island. point proven :P It also really comes down to wether or not I can shotgun Badtz Maru. That penguin frikin deserves it.so in terms of value the god of war package is more. More gameplay and new added features. The halo DLC is overpriced after all. You get a 5 hour campaign and 3 new maps wow that's great value. Value is in terms of interest what may be valuable to you isn't valuable to me and vies versa. who cares how old the game is its meant for ps3 owners who dont have b/c but want to play the game. First off, the Halo ODST campaign is touted as being comparable to other Halo games in length. I don't know where the "5 hours" length comes from, but I know that people who described Halo 3's campaign as being 8'ish hours were doing speed runs on easy. Comparably, I could say "Oh, MGS4 - about 8 hours gameplay, no multiplayer - what a waste of money!" So, where does this 5 hours number come from?[QUOTE="Rza_rectah"]

I don't even see how you can put that in the same ballpark of value as an actual new campaign in one of the most beloved series of the past two gens, whether you personally like it or not.Shafftehr

[QUOTE="cainetao11"][QUOTE="kobraka1"] and apparently they are babies too who cant take critisism. wanna play me? ill make you cry even more.I can take critisism.

Like I said in an other post, thats more content than alot of other 60$ games. Im guessing you only buy games with 30 hour single player campaigns?
The single player is completely redesigned from Halo 3's campaign. This is GREAT news to people like me, who were severely let down by Halo 3's underwhelming campaign. It really isn't more of the same because the entire game design is different from Halo 3's.
So achievements and a resolution increase on games that aren't even a generation old is worth more than an entirely new singleplayer campaign, new multiplayer modes, new weapons, and new maps?... Wow. Just wow.[QUOTE="Shafftehr"][QUOTE="Rza_rectah"] because ODST is over priced DLC. At least with GoW you get HD and Trophies. You get way more in the ELC for GTA that just shows you whose milking who.Oakfront
I'd gladly pay $40 odd or however much its going to be for the GOW re-release then ODST.
Ok, i agree on a new campaign, but dude, it's the exact same multiplayer as Halo, with a like 3 new maps..
Good for you. I have God of War 1 and 2 and a BC PS3. Ill just stick with that and buy ODST, since it actually offers something new for my money.
For all games the projected time it takes to beat is never actually that time you should know that, that goes for any game not just halo. MGS 4 has multiplayer. I told you already i dont like halo so i will take a re release over that game any day. I love new games dont put words in my mouth. It doesnt matter if a game is new if you already know what to expect its halo so i dont expect any radical changes in an expansion. The game was priced lower but its now more expensive i wonder why? I got my 360 and my ps 3 to play new games just because i dont like a new halo expansion doesnt mean i dont like new games.MGSO was released as a different game - Kojima aimed for that, GS didn't count it when scoring it for precisely that reason (same with most sites). MGSO is, straight from Kojima, and independent effort from MGS4. Get your facts straight, eh?Rza_rectah
I can't remember the last game I bought that I got as little playtime out of as the projected completion time. Halo's campaign actually has some of the longest-legs of any FPS campaign I've ever played due to co-op... And go figure, my first playthrough (legendary, of course) took me *substantially* longer than the estimated time to beat. So in short, I don't "know that" because it's a load of bullpoop.
Your position is either "I value re-releases more than new games" or "I don't like Halo, so it's not worth it for ANYONE!" I almost always value new experiences over repackaged recent old ones. This is no exception particularly seeing as it is a new entry in one of the most beloved gaming properties of the past two gens.

Honestly dude, if you dont like Halo, thats fine then you wont like this. But thats alot of content for 60 bucks. I really dont feel ripped off in the slightest.[QUOTE="Shafftehr"]So basically people throw that around because they ignore all of the more recent info in favour of the old info that puts the absolute worst spin on it?... so to you 3 hours of gameplay justifies a 20 dollar increase in price?[QUOTE="savagetwinkie"]the 5 hours comes from their original annoucnement as DLC, then a few months or so later they were like, we have alot more so we are going to sell it as a full fledged game, and then we are also adding in ALL the halo 3 DLC

I don't think people understand that value is subjective. I don't go out to eat much spending $10 on fast food but a lot of people do it so there must be value there for them.
Uncharted had a short single player and no multiplayer and was $60.
Same with Heavenly Sword, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, Prince of Persia, and so many others.
Halo 3: ODST has a short single player, a multiplayer, and 3 new maps for Halo 3's multiplayer.
To me that is a good value. I can understand why some people don't think it is but don't act like Bungie and MS are the devils. Compared to many games this gen Halo 3:ODST is a better value content wise.

Sorry.... not number of hours; addition of hours. See how easy it is to communicate effectively?
So you feel ripped off based on the arbitrary number of campaign hours you've assigned to a game that hasn't been released....yet totally ignoring other facets of the game that help make it a new experience in a familar universe. Hmm. Ignorance you say......
I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree.
Being ripped off? This game looks freaking fantastic. The single player is 6-8 hours long, which is in the same ballpark of Gears, Gears 2, Uncharted, R1, R2, and multiple other AAA titles. And you get the full multiplayer experience, so non-Halo 3 owners or whatever, get to have the multiplayer without buying Halo 3. They get all the maps, too. I don't own the latest map packs, so that's a bonus for me. And then Firefight, too.

I'm reading through Gamespots Terms of Use and nowhere does it say that I'm responsible for anticipating or interpreting your typos or omissions.
Back on-topic: If you followed this thread, you'd see several people's posts (including mine) that list what makes the game worth the full retail price tag. We didn't leave it out for you to figure out what we "mean". It's right there in black and white (or whatever font color your settings default to).
Enjoy!
you need post rules to help u to understand my post dont use that as a cop outfor your ignorance.

I knew it was sarcasm but I disregarded that. If I don't find value that other find in a game because I don't like the game at all then that makes me ignorant interesting. I don't feel I been ripped off I never bought the game but I feel the game is a rip to those who buy you can't understand simple English can you but yea agree to disagree.So like I said before but other can't seem to understand with the GoW. So say you already own halo 3 the Heroic and legendary map packs what would justify the 60 dollar price tag besides the halo in the title.Being ripped off? This game looks freaking fantastic.

Errr, because I want to play the freaking campaign. :| I paid $60 for Uncharted with a 7-8 hour campaign. And I thought it was worth it. What's so hard to comprehend here?

um uncharted was aroun 10-12 hours.Yeah, uh no. Not for me. If it took you longer, then cool beans, bud. I could explore New Mambosa in ODST and stretch out its time, too.
Nathan Fillion's in it. Beyond that I literally have no interest in this game. Halo is a dead IP to me.Firstly, i own all 3 consoles, so no fanboy here as my 360 probably gets the most play time. I just don't get why people are so excited about them being ripped off for what is, at its core a $60 DLC :?.
Whats so special about it?Oakfront
