The editors didn't like

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

  • Abstract:  Since the release of the original Halo in 2001, Bungie have brought in millions of dollars worth of sales for Microsoft’s Xbox 360 console. Some fans strayed off the beaten track when Gears of War arrived on the scene, but there is no denying that the ...

  • If you love Halo games, you already own this game. If you never got into the whole Halo thing the first time around, then nothing here will change your mind.Oh, and Nathan Fillion, Adam Baldwin and Alan Tudyk provide the voices for three of the shock t...

  • Halo 3: ODST is, perhaps, a little flawed in places but fundamentally it delivers exactly what it promises: the same brilliant Halo gameplay we all know and love, but from a different perspective. You'd be mad to miss out on such excellence....

  • Firefight mode is brilliant, great storyline, same old Halo FPS action
  • No Firefight random play, can be too slow-paced
  • The series continues with a brilliant single player campaign, and tonnes of multiplayer options...

  • ODST is the first in the Halo series to be truly underwhelming. Hardcore fans will still garner some joy, but should also be prepared to feel the pleasure/pain principal when the fun-train terminates abruptly at bland central. 6.3/10Print this pageUser...

  • Story and characters are a nice break from formula, Firefight cooperative mode is very, very addictive, Plenty of hardcore Halo fan service here
  • Campaign is surprisingly short, Gameplay is overwhelmingly familiar, Is this just a placeholder until Halo: Reach?

  • Classic Halo big setpieces, classic Halo combat, new visor mode that picks out enemies and environment details
  • Solo trudging stealth sections, recycled ideas from old Halo games
  • The cinematic combat magic is still there, but this is the worst Halo game yet....

  • Firefight is awesome, Tight gameplay, Killer OST, Not as linear as previous Halo games
  • Too Short, Looks Dated, Firefight is restricted to your friends list only, No new MP modes
  • New to the Halo universe is the inclusion of a Horde mode called Firefight that allows you and three of your buddies to take on hordes of the Covenant on Xbox Live. Unlike the Horde mode from Gears of War 2, Firefight is never ending and can provide ho...

  • Action packed campaign; night time environments, Firefight mode is a lot of fun; Halo 3 multiplayer mode with more maps.
  • Campaign is too short; no new innovative features.
  • Halo 3: ODST doesn’t attempt to reinvent Halo’s core gameplay but still hits the right tones which makes it an enjoyable fare for any first-person shooter fan. It’s definitely all here — the action, story and atmosphere are well ti...

  • Abstract:  THE Halo franchise never fails to get Xbox gamers all excited, especially those who have played the entire trilogy from as far back as 2001.That was when Halo was launched as the poster boy for the then-freshly minted Xbox console.So when this game sta...
