What really stood out for me in this game is the atmosphere in the singleplayer. I loved the feeling of being alone in a deserted city. Martys music just pushed it over the top, matched the atmosphere perfectly.
Thank you, Classic Game Room. You do funny, detailed reviews that are long but never seem dull. Gametrailers used to be my video review site of choice, but this one really takes the cake.
@Spike90 It's good to hear people talk about the music and the surrounding instead of just online or other crap. It's nice to know you look at that too.
"when you buy this game you buy all those other people. You own their lives. They are your property. They are like your furnature in soilant green." so funny you rock
didnt time splitters have something like a firefight mode? cuz i remember being in a mansion, and there were waves and waves of zombies coming and comine and u got shotguns and had to kill them all it was fun
Horde type gameplay seems to be popular these days, Uncharted 2 has it and Army of Two: 40th day also will have it. Like team death match I can see it being a staple in online games.
Don't know if I should get this or Halo 3 or Reach. Have had Halo 1 and 2, and I really enjoyed them, and I've played Sandtrap on Halo 2 and Loved it. Help?
@Exodus2021 yeah but what difficulty did you have it on? Plus there's spec ops and more importantly multiplayer. I mean who would buy MW2 just for the singleplayer? Anyway the ending leaves space for another sequel
So.. is there matchmaking like in 3, or only zombie?? Is firefight only zombie mode? Is there odd ball, team slayer, CTF, etc.. over Live?? I'll pick it up when the prices come down.. Good review!
i think lost oddyssey on xbox 360 has 3 discs. although i agree with your point, there is still much to consider. i think a lot of time is spent on graphics; art direction etc and on gameplay itself- seeing that people demand better games on the next gen. not to forget there's multiplayer to think about.
yeah but im takling about first person shooters. timesplitters was the pioneer for this arcade style survival thing on every fps 360 game. good point though.
ODST (um, orange donkeys steal teeth?) is the best halo imo. its not like the other ones and i like that. this one is actually on my wishlist, unlike the others.
Alot of people r sayin the odst is really bad compared to halo 3 but i disagree with that, but i can say its a bit worse than 3 but still fun this is also convienient to non halo 3 owners because of experience odst is still SO FREAKIN FUN
by couldnt fit i mean is that last gen games wasnt so long due to many reasons. but nowadays you can fit so much more into games. but since bungie is milking the halo series so bad i wouldnt expect such a good game..
those survival modes were copied from the challenges on timesplitters 2 and 3 on the last gen consoles, where you get wave after wave of zombies or monkeys or guys on fire.
Games nowadays have high graphics and use a lot of room on a disk. Which does not leave enough room for a long game. Back in the day, like on the Playstation, if a game was huge they split it up onto many disks. I wonder if they lost the technology for this or are they just to lazy to do it.
I rarely hear "arrogant children" in matches anymore. back when the game was first released this was a lot more common but the community has seemingly matured since then
im getting back into halo and im going to collect all the games. so far I have halo ce anniversary, halo 3 odst, halo reach. I use to play halo ce on the pc, those were the good days...
ODST's true value only shows when you're about to buy yourself a 360 and want to play Halo 3. Otherwise if you already have the game, and already have majority of the maps, its just bad value. Good add on nonetheless.
uh.. the point is.. the Camp are freaking short... The Multiplayer maps and the firefight thingy are just bonus features of the game.. The whole thing(aka story) IS remarkable with its awesome story and nice plot.. but... its just too short.. I'm kind of a Story dude... I dont care too much about bonuses... They are JUST bonus.. yes?

His GamerTag is Wind Squid.
I love that name.
@Spike90 It's good to hear people talk about the music and the surrounding instead of just online or other crap. It's nice to know you look at that too.
Firefight is awesome. I remember playing firefight in the first Ghost Recon. Good times, good times.
Special thanks to Classic Game Room for this 3 part review. I enjoyed watching it.
My request to CGR - please do a review of Forza Motorsport 3.
"when you buy this game you buy all those other people. You own their lives. They are your property. They are like your furnature in soilant green." so funny you rock
"they're like furniture in solient green"
i love this channel
tea-bagging is fucking HILARIOUS, never gets old
Too those who say the short campaign is a bad thing. Halo is a novel while ODST (Only Dragons Share Tuna) is a short story Treat them as such.

Thanks to you guys THIS is original.

I prefer this survival mode over the new MW3's
Don't know if I should get this or Halo 3 or Reach. Have had Halo 1 and 2, and I really enjoyed them, and I've played Sandtrap on Halo 2 and Loved it. Help?
@sleinfer I don't doubt that they'll include that in Reach.
great review but i think that you should talk about and show some online multiplayer for the mythic pack.
when will this be released for the wii?
@Exodus2021 yeah but what difficulty did you have it on? Plus there's spec ops and more importantly multiplayer. I mean who would buy MW2 just for the singleplayer? Anyway the ending leaves space for another sequel

@PJMunoz21 Totally, only the best of us notice that stuff. Atmosphere/music is everything, and in my opinion they totally nailed it in ODST.
nice review. I picked it up because i needed halo 3 mp
lol what you said from 4:20 to the end made me laugh xD nice review, i might get a 360 for this game :]
lol the opening ;D
i lyk it wen da jakal says dammit cuz of the gernade in 1:08
@MasterGeneralRyan Where does the O fit in?
Nice review.
i wish i hadn't give this one away, only played this once, dont remember anything on it
I recommend playing the campaign again. It's really fun and unique for a Halo game.
@Jayui22 Ok. It does have forge if you count the extra disc, but I guess that's not worth reviewing since that would just be Halo 3's forge?
yeah but im takling about first person shooters. timesplitters was the pioneer for this arcade style survival thing on every fps 360 game. good point though.
ODST (um, orange donkeys steal teeth?) is the best halo imo. its not like the other ones and i like that. this one is actually on my wishlist, unlike the others.
great review getting the game i hope for christmas. 5 stars
The HD hasn't finished processing or whatever, if you check back in an hour it will be in HD.
I swear my resolution on ODST doesn't look as good as this! Wonderful game though!
the only thing i hate about halo 3 odst firefight is that i run out of ammo for the supressed smg and the ammo racks run out of ammo

Ha, excellent Soylent Green reference!
no more like a cool mini campaign theater mode fire fight comes with a halo 3 multi player disk that comes with all maps.
like it or hate it, Halo is one of the best multiplayer experiences out there, better than CoD or Gears at least.
are the servers for halo 3 odst still up?
do you get more ammo after every wave in firefight
And Crash Bandicoot,GoW(All of them),UT3,NFS U1,U2,MW,Carbon and Undercover.
do you know how can unlock dare for fire fight?
yea theres a video somewhere on youtube on how to download it for free if u want it not sure what the video was called tho

Firefight is just made for more than one person. It just doesn't feel right all by yourself.
Alot of people r sayin the odst is really bad compared to halo 3 but i disagree with that, but i can say its a bit worse than 3 but still fun
this is also convienient to non halo 3 owners because of experience
odst is still SO FREAKIN FUN
if you could forge the firefight maps, i would just put a bunch of ammo everywhere
they arelike furniture..nice phrase
how about killonaire?

not in HD? come on. oh well. good review. you convinced me to be more depressed i dont have the money for this game.
Hehe! That's actually what the feature in odst reminds me of (:
This game is unbelievable value for money.
by couldnt fit i mean is that last gen games wasnt so long due to many reasons. but nowadays you can fit so much more into games. but since bungie is milking the halo series so bad i wouldnt expect such a good game..
they're both good

good idea but halo is by bungie which, i think, works with microsoft, which makes xbox.

Fire fight looks ALOT like survival mode in left 4 dead 1

did you watch the review? he said its worth owning if your a fan of halo so if your not dont buy it
uh.. the point is.. the Camp are freaking short...
The Multiplayer maps and the firefight thingy are just bonus features of the game.. The whole thing(aka story) IS remarkable with its awesome story and nice plot.. but... its just too short.. I'm kind of a Story dude... I dont care too much about bonuses... They are JUST bonus..
yes?
