[Official] Halo 3: ODST


Recommended Posts

For any of you interested, you can actually get to play (well explore) the space station map that the opening video takes place on - kinda cool :geek:

I found this out because I'd taken my profile round to my bro's for a session of firefight so then when I went to play it the next day on my own console, I copied my profile back to my HDD and once I selected firefight it said I hadn't got a map selected, but I could start the mission so I did and it puts you on the space station!

I called my bro to tell him and he jumped onto xbox.com to check what my profile said and it comes up as you're "firefight on unknown". He then had a quick look on google and saw that someone else had found it to and uploaded a video to youtube - Youtube Video of Firefight Space Station Map - it also gives instructions in the info field on how to get it to load a blank map.

Like I said - it's interesting for any Halo fans so I figured I'd post about it.

P.S. I did search the forum first but couldn't see anyone mentioning doing this so apologies if someone's mentioned it and I've missed it.

Any of you guys ever look at some of the strategies on the Endure achivement. saw a pretty good one over at Xbox360achivements.org. Don't try and read the post. Way too confusing he is all over the place. But the videos sure do explain alot.

A picture ( or video in this case) in worth a thousand words.

Linky!

Here is the actual vid.

Very Cool. Will definitely have to try that out.

My friend and I just played for the Endure achievement by ourselves and I must say, it was quite difficult just the two of us. We both had two people signed in on our Xboxes and were only playing one while hiding the other. Anyway, 190 minutes later we got the achievement and it literally came down to our last two playable lives. I was on his secondary person and he was on his primary. We finished with zero lives remaining and very little health. I thought for sure we were going to lose it right at the end, but somehow we made it. So, tomorrow we'll do the D?j? Vu achievement and finally get Reco:):)

im available now and for a bit to play some firefight. Ideally id like to get a few 200k achievements. Shouldn't take to long to get one.

lulz.. 2hrs on easy to get one. lol. I'll be on around 11pm EST.

@Razor, sorry for not replying to your PM's on XBL, I use the 360 to watch videos every night and fall asleep with it left on too usually. JUst so you know I wasn't ignoring you :p

btwww, technically that was 2 words and 1 number ^^^ :p ;)

excuses Andy.. excuses.. lol. A number is still a word! lol.. anyway.. Although I still do plan on finishing up the ODST achievements.. anyone up for it? I"ll be on around 11pm EST. Still need Endure, 2 more 2k achievements ( Chasm Ten and Last Exit (we could probably do Endure for Last Exit that will include the 2k achievement)).

    • I used a Pixel 10 Pro XL when it first came out for about 8 months. When I first got it, it was using Google assistant and that was fast, when asking it to call somone etc. Then it automatically switched with some update to Gemini. Doing even the simplist of things like asking it to call someone in my contacts was soooooo slow compared to Google assistant. I guess it had to go out to the cloud to do that? Back on iPhone and while Siri is dumb right now, it does do those simple things, like call someone, set a timer, star the stop watch etc, really fast. That an while I like Google Material Design 3 over iOS 26, they Pixel 10 Pro XL was so slow in comparison to the iPhone 17 Pro I am using.
    • I use Gemini in my rotation of AI clients...that work pays for. It is good at most things, better than copilot for imgage searching and making images, worse at writing vs Claude and way worse at hadling technical issues when it comes to Azure stuff. I also use YT premium and maps. Anything else Google is a pass for me. I have now seen multiple people locked out of their Google accounts for reasons that are just very vauge.
    • Microsoft is building an AI datacenter that "uses less water than a fast food restaurant" by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced plans to build a new datacenter campus in Pecos, Texas, as the company continues to invest billions in AI infrastructure. The new facility, called project Kilby, will reportedly have a capacity of 2 gigawatts and will be one of the largest single capacity additions in the company’s history. To power the campus, Microsoft signed a 20-year deal with Chevron to supply natural gas from the Permian Basin, America's largest oil field. This deal is set to become the largest collaboration to date between a U.S. oil and gas giant and Big Tech. It’s no secret that Big Tech has often been criticized for exploiting natural resources for its AI developments. Microsoft is trying to mitigate some of that negative consensus by promising to build its own power supply for the new datacenter, independent of the public grid. The Pecos datacenter will be powered by a power plant hub, built by Chevron, with up to 2.5 gigawatts of gas-fired capacity, with potential to scale to up to 5 gigawatts. The facility will include at least seven GE Vernova turbines, with first power potentially coming online as early as late 2027 or early 2028. The power plant hub is part of an approximately $7 billion investment by Chevron, making it one of the largest dedicated energy projects tied to a single datacenter campus in the U.S. Microsoft hasn’t publicly disclosed the amount it’s investing in the new datacenter. Microsoft has also committed to implementing a closed-loop cooling system that will only require an initial water charge to operate. The company said that “the total lifecycle water use of this datacenter is only a fraction of that consumed annually by a typical fast-food restaurant.” What the press release doesn’t mention, however, is how much water the natural gas plant itself will consume, or how a 20-year fossil fuel commitment squares with the company's pledge to be carbon negative by 2030. The construction of the new datacenter should provide over 6,000 construction jobs at peak build-out, and create hundreds of operational job roles once the facility is built. Via: Reuters
    • A lot of uncertainty in this story. Might. Could. Maybe. The truth is we don't know what will happen to the universe in the end, or if it will end. Our own Milky Way galaxy will merge with the Andromeda galaxy in about 2.5 billion years, with our solar system as part of a new, larger cluster. I guess we'll have to and see how it goes down.
