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.
"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
@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
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?
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
@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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
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
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..
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...
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.
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.
The only bad thing about online games is that some people like to curse/swear alot esspecialy in mmorpg's just because they parents or who ever they live with has/have access to a credit card & you don't .when you ask them their age & they tell you they are like 8 to 13 years old.8 to 13 year old kids curseing/swearing at big 20+grown men makes you just want to reach through the tv or pc screen & ring they little necks...
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.

I love that name.
"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
tea-bagging is fucking HILARIOUS, never gets old
I prefer this survival mode over the new MW3's
when will this be released for the wii?
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.
@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

lol what you said from 4:20 to the end made me laugh xD nice review, i might get a 360 for this game :]
@MasterGeneralRyan Where does the O fit in?
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.
@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?
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
Firefight is awesome. I remember playing firefight in the first Ghost Recon. Good times, good times.
are the servers for halo 3 odst still up?
great review but i think that you should talk about and show some online multiplayer for the mythic pack.
@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.
do you get more ammo after every wave in firefight
do you know how can unlock dare for fire fight?
@sleinfer I don't doubt that they'll include that in Reach.
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!
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
Nice review.
great review getting the game i hope for christmas. 5 stars

Thanks to you guys THIS is original.
like it or hate it, Halo is one of the best multiplayer experiences out there, better than CoD or Gears at least.
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
the final was outstanding :)) that rocks 5:11
wat makes u think that it will come to ps3
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.
The HD hasn't finished processing or whatever, if you check back in an hour it will be in HD.
@Jayui22 Because there is?
lol the opening ;D
i really want a pc port
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.
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.
no rating?

i lyk it wen da jakal says dammit cuz of the gernade in 1:08
not in HD? come on. oh well. good review. you convinced me to be more depressed i dont have the money for this game.
@PJMunoz21 Totally, only the best of us notice that stuff. Atmosphere/music is everything, and in my opinion they totally nailed it in ODST.
And Crash Bandicoot,GoW(All of them),UT3,NFS U1,U2,MW,Carbon and Undercover.
they arelike furniture..nice phrase
no more like a cool mini campaign theater mode fire fight comes with a halo 3 multi player disk that comes with all maps.
Hehe! That's actually what the feature in odst reminds me of (:

odst is still SO FREAKIN FUN
I swear my resolution on ODST doesn't look as good as this! Wonderful game though!
took awhile
if you could forge the firefight maps, i would just put a bunch of ammo everywhere

@Spike90 Amen brother.
xbox live arcade?
that is the classic download games
i bet you meant just xbox live
The only bad thing about online games is that some people like to curse/swear alot esspecialy in mmorpg's just because they parents or who ever they live with has/have access to a credit card & you don't .when you ask them their age & they tell you they are like 8 to 13 years old.8 to 13 year old kids curseing/swearing at big 20+grown men makes you just want to reach through the tv or pc screen & ring they little necks...
ANOTHER HALO GAME?!LOL!I'm sorry but how many times do we need the same game over again?!
you should do uncharted 2, forza 3, and dirt 2 :D
Fire fight looks ALOT like survival mode in left 4 dead 1
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.
In Nazi Zombies you can play over matchmaking with anyone, not just friends.
