the campaign was good, but it was a bit short. bungie could have made it longer, and deeper with the story line. there where a few unanswered question in the campaign.

multiplayer should have been open to anyone not just friends, like a matchmaking server as well.

but in all a good game, and a recommended to halo fans

I wish they never released this. First of all the story does not match between halo 2 and halo 3, so why did they make it? No offence ladies, but the main story appears to be romance. Terrible! What is that doing in a halo sequel? The online multiplayer is literaly equivelant to halo 3. We pretty much pay for nothing. The multiplayer doesn't even utilise the ODST battle system! The game took us 3 hours to clock on normal which is far too fast. Firefight mode is good but anything above Normal becomes legendary so it is either too easy or waaay to difficult. The game is supposed to be sandbox. While one can argue that half the game is, they can also argue that half of that half isn't, making only a quarter of the game sandbox. I would rather pay somebody $90 to wax my legs (and their very hairy) then pay for this game.

ODST is in my opinion the best halo title to date. In the campagin it moves away form the run in and kill everybody to a slower paced game. Depite this you do not get bored with it. In my opinion this is one of the best features. However the multiplayer is the same halo multiplayer we all know and love with the added addition of firefight a great game type where you hold off and defend you position
