[Official] Halo 3: ODST

[Kushan]

I don't know if the ODST specific stuff (like firefight) will be up, though, that could be separate. What about reviewers, though? Surely they'll need servers to play on or will that all be done on pnet?

Ah yeah true.

I guess Neowin should get ready to stop people posting impressions till nearer the time, there's been no reports of UK/English speaking EU countries selling copies in large enough numbers it's obvious if anyone here is posting spoilers they've downloaded. Unless they're French :p

I remember someone spoiled MGS4 for Sethos was it? And that was just a few days before release :/ I guess those weren't copies but so Neowin couldn't delete spoilers/impressions.

I've honestly no idea, I thought it was completely different servers altogether from Halo 3's.

[Kushan]

It wouldn't make sense to segregate ODST players from Halo 3 players. The multiplayer is IDENTICAL (aside from firefight, which is on the ODST disk anyway), the only difference is you get the extra maps on the disk instead of DLC. Its the same with Left 4 Dead and the GOTY edition - they are both compatible with each other, despite the content on each disk being slightly different.

Like I said, there probably isn't a playlist for the "new" maps that ship with ODST but I don't see why you wouldn't be able to play with the existing playlists since they're controlled server side anyway.

Yeah, thankfully the member was banned. He PMd me all the games major spoilers throughout the game.

Fortunately my mate opened an Indy store so as long as I'm doing part time work there he's happy to let me take games out the back till release. :)

Unlike the guys at GAME & co I keep my mucky paws off the disc and box! ;D

Just pulling your leg spookie, but if you do start posting impressions in like 2 days people will be suspicious without proof, just saying!

[Kushan]

[Draken]

Well to be fair Spookie it takes like 2 minutes to take a picture, it's the first thing most people do when they get a game early to brag :p

I done it with MGS4 and LBP, you get all excited getting it early and take pictures! Then get abused by jealous people and those worried bout spoilers ;)

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

nahh just finished it, that was 7.5/10

but really Halo 3 was 9.2/10

And you're 0/10

:woot:

lol @ the very thought Halo is only worth 1.3 more than Wolf :laugh:

Maybe you should buy a game once in a while Draken. You might appreciate it more!

[Draken]

:rolleyes: I'm an average gamer ma'boy not metacritic, don't take my scores by heart

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

Trust me I don't :p

[Tharp Daddy]

We should start forming some Neowin firefight teams, since theres no matchmaking. Have a leaderboard on which team can get the furthest.

[Draken]

Trust me I don't :p

good for you ;) , I'm so old school that will be impossible to agree with someone like you (so young and full of life!! :laugh: )

[Brad.]

can someone enlighten me with more details on the firefight mode? is it similar to horde on gears of war where you just fight AI enemies over and over? me and my friend gave it a go on split screen and just had no idea what the hell was going on.
