The editors didn't like

  • Short play time and high price for a game expansion.

  • Abstract:  The Halo series is one of gaming’s biggest franchises to date. From videogames, books, comics, toys, to clothes -- Halo was even almost turned into (and could very well still be) a Hollywood film. Halo 3: ODST is the latest Bungie-developed entry into...

  • Abstract:  The Halo series has always demonstrated something of a split personality. On one hand, you have the headline-grabbing multiplayer portion, with its teams of armored warriors running, shooting, punching, and teabagging; on the other, you have the campai...

  • Firefight the four-player cooperative mode, great flashback missions, addition of a night vision visor
  • No competitive multiplayer mode, major issues with NPC marine A.I, exiting the game via the Xbox Guide button means you lose your campaign progress. Graphics need a facelift.
  • Get ready to trade in your Halo 3 disc for Halo 3: ODST. The new Firefight four-player cooperative mode showcases how well Halo’s weapons and enemies balance each other’s strengths and weakness almost perfectly. And Halo 3: ODST comes with a second di...

  • The Halo universe is becoming ever more expansive and incorporated, which really helps players feel immersed. Stellar soundtrack. Gripping story. Great new Firefight multiplayer.
  • Even average players will get through the campaign in less than eight hours, so it really isnt long enough. Difficult to justify $99 if you already have the DLC for Halo 3.
