Why does Halo 3: ODST get no love again?

Bungie fails becuase while they make quality games , there just not exciting enough.

See the first Halo was cool because it had originally ment to be an RTS and then change to third person and the First person so it had an awesome feeling. Then Halo 2 and Halo 3 came it out and it was strictly linear FPS. Boring.

The ultimate shooting game would be a cross between an RTS game and FPS. Epic battles and confrontations you set up and then primary and secondary missions you perform to assist the bigger battle in FPS.

But back to Bungie and Halo:ODST lets hope Bungie gets "that 30 seconds of fun back" with ODST.

[QUOTE="Iheartrpgsalot"][QUOTE="angry_fork"]Because it's just another Halo game. I love Halo: CE, but Halo 2 and 3 are just blah. I'd love to see Bungie do something else OTHER then Halo, it's just the most obvious cash-in, I know they're talented dev's and I wish I could see them do a new IP.angry_fork

Real fan service would be giving the fans something new. Halo needs to be finished already, it's not that great of a series, it's just good in my opinion.

I know a lot of people like it but Bungie should move on and show their talents on a new IP, I'd really like to see what else they can do, it's like they're a 1 trick clown or something.

[QUOTE="Fire-of-Njozi"]It gets no love because we've not seen so much as a screenshot of the game. How do you expect anyone to have any kind of anticipation for a game they haven't even seen in motion? Especially for a tangential game.Iheartrpgsalot

There needs to be gameplay footage that looks fun and has good graphics to get any hype right now.

[QUOTE="king23_"]I'm just expecting it to be another generic First-Person Shooter. Nothing exciting about that.Zoso-8

too many shooters on that system.

Agreed. Every year it seems the game that is hyped most on the 360 is a shooter. Need something new.

THIS.

AND we've barely seen any vidz/pics to justify the game needs SW attention.lol

It seems like on these forums, whenever someone talks about the ODST, people don't seem to treat it like it's there. While the 360 fans surely a hyped for it, everyone else is pretty much pretending it doesn't exist. So what gives?

Halo 3 is the most played xbox game and one of the highest rated games, and here comes along a sort of expansion (kind of) that's going to bring a new campaign that's rather different from the halo norm, some new multiplayer maps, as well as some other good stuff according to bungie.

I'd understand if that 5 hour number ended up being the full story, but it was debunked- bungie said they it was 5 hours for the one side of gameplay and then we find out that it's going to use a hub and spoke level design (think platformers) for a first person shooter and no one is even caring? What the heck?

And it is a bungie game. This should give us an idea of what they can pull of besides halo as well. Ahh... but they'll have announced their 2010 game by then according to their podcast.

Come on guys, it's freaking Halo

Maybe it's because this game is basically fanservice for the halo 3 fans, and most of you guys only care about is that 9.5

Heres the quick and easy answer. On the ps3 side, noone cares about halo. Theres no more "man i wish we had that shooter". Theres plenty of good shooters and plenty more coming. So missing ODST isnt huge...Noone cares...ITs just another game for 360 that fans of halo will play..

Thats all it really is. Many will enjoy it, i myself wont really care to play it (has i dislike halo due to regen, quick run and gun and i dislike strats of the game" However many like it and it sells alot..

w.e

Sure the game is run and gun mostly, but it's far from quick. :P

because halo 3 is barely a next gen game. just look at that game! what so next gen about it? What giant leap did it improve on it? comepare halo 2 and 3.

and from the looks of halo 3 odst will be the same

Because it's just another Halo game. I love Halo: CE, but Halo 2 and 3 are just blah. I'd love to see Bungie do something else OTHER then Halo, it's just the most obvious cash-in, I know they're talented dev's and I wish I could see them do a new IP.angry_fork

imo bungie is overrated. they made one great AAA game and just casualize it with every sequal.

No gameplay yet, not much info yet, and I believe 360 owners don't really get excited and hype announcements and trailers, compared to other owners.one_on_one

[QUOTE="angelkimne"][QUOTE="Eyezonmii"] i agree and the core gameplay in Halo 3 is the same as Halo 1...run shoot, grenade, melee....ride vehicle....repeat. Why don't bungie progress more and introduce new gameplay elements to deepen the experience? skrat_01

I know, I know. But they did exactly what he said, introduce new gameplay elements to deepen the experience.angelkimne

[QUOTE="skrat_01"][QUOTE="angelkimne"]Equipment with Halo 3, Dual Wielding with Halo 2...angelkimne

[QUOTE="angelkimne"][QUOTE="skrat_01"]Well in all due respect those two mentions, arent really major progressive gameplay changers..... even the design revamp of the shield in 2..... Not too say the sequals are not good.Eyezonmii

The moment I heard about the uber short campaign (they claimed 5 hours which means it will actually be 2-3hrs) I lost all interest :(II_Seraphim_II

Halo jumped the shark and isn't ultra cool anymore? GundamGuy0

[QUOTE="GundamGuy0"]Halo jumped the shark and isn't ultra cool anymore? Eyezonmii

why cant halo or cod die already?

they just keep making games because they will know people are gonna buy it.
if it has Halo in the title, milions of people are gonna buy it...

i hope this game flops so hard, that would be a good laugh

still if you dont like the idea of smaller downloadable games, well thats fair enough.

Why does it bother you so much if you don't have to play it? Halo CE, Halo 2, and Halo 3 are all great games imo. Halo Wars is looking good for a console RTS and Halo ODST will probably be good too considering the developer is Bungie. If the games are good, why stop making them? So you can have a "good laugh"? Same goes for Call of Duty.

Since the episodes are generally half-priced compared to retail products, you're getting something worth the money you're spending. It's not like you're spending $60 on it.

I'm personally a big fan of really tight shorter games, such as the Half-Life episodes.
