[Official] Halo 3: ODST


Recommended Posts

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.

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.

We won't be seeing spoilers from me till closer to wed/thurs when we get our copies in the shop. ;D

oops wrong grayfox, there was an almost identical named member who was banned.

But MGS3_Grayfox Popisdead the 5th is banned anyway, or at least as good as :)

Popisdead the 5th, LOL.

If you're gonna play illegitimate games then at least make them yourself, so much cheaper! Actually it depends if you know the person selling :rofl:

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

Ah yeah my brother works there as well! :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!

Well ******** to em, I'm not going out my way to take photos of a disc! :p

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 ;)

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!

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.

    • hands down the worst version of Windows to date and sadly I think it's only downhill from here
    • I've never known a release to have so much pressure than this one. There is so much riding on the whole games industry because of everything that's changed in the past five years. That if this is a complete flop then I think the whole games industry is done unless something radically changes.
    • Windows 11 is now five years old by Taras Buria Windows 11 is now half a decade old. Five years ago, on June 24, 2021, Microsoft announced its latest operating system, designed to "bring you closer to what you love." Today, Windows 11 celebrates its fifth birthday. The launch of Windows 11 was interesting. Rumors about Microsoft introducing a Windows 10 successor popped up weeks before the public announcement, and a few days later, an entire preview build leaked online, allowing everyone to take a peek at what Microsoft was preparing. A few weeks later, Microsoft confirmed that Windows 11 was a thing and officially unveiled its next-gen operating system. Early versions of Windows 11 promised quite a lot. A redesigned, more modern user interface, a brand new Start menu and taskbar, improvements to virtual desktops and window snapping, Android app support, Teams integrated into the taskbar, Windows Widgets, a new version of the Microsoft Store, improved security, and more. Some of those features were welcomed, while others were received with heavy criticism. Besides missing taskbar and Start menu features, many disliked the steep hardware requirements, which kicked out PCs that were back then still perfectly fine. TPM and Secure Boot became mandatory, causing a spike in sales of dedicated TPM chips for motherboards. Double-layered context menus were disliked as well, and it is something that Microsoft still has to fix. Additionally, with time, some of Windows 11's exclusive features were simply killed. Microsoft removed the Teams integration and discontinued Android app support. During the early days of Windows 11, Microsoft was quite unwilling to address things that users criticized most. After four years on the market, management changes, and heated competition from the Mac camp, Microsoft finally decided to give in and take its operating system back to the drawing board to fix everything users had been complaining about for years. Microsoft is now redesigning the Start menu, adding missing taskbar features, improving Windows Update, fixing Windows 11's context menu, and more. Some believe all that warrants a new Windows 12 release, but for now, it appears that Windows 11 will stick around for a while. With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11!
