Halo ODST sucks!
Just bought my pre-ordered copy of ODST tonight. Picked it up at 12:22 am and quickly drove it home to play. Already had friends lined up to do 4 player co-op. $60.00 for 3 new multiplayer maps that will be free in another 2 months, and a 5 hour campaign... That doesn't sound good I thought, but then this is Halo and we have all of the previous titles and loved each one. That list includes Halo Wars... Therefore I thought that this one has to be good. Long story short, the 4 of us all agreed that this is a terrible game which is chock full of shortcuts and unpolished hogwash. I plan to take my copy back to the store when it opens for my money back! Bungie - This is not worth $60.00 - not even close. This is a crappy game and that is coming from a Halo-fanboy. You guys lost a customer tonight. I won't buy another one of your titles. I am extremely disappointed by this game.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] TheEasy1JM [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Mark V guy So Bungie make 3 games you love, then they make one game you hate and your opinion if them is ruined Grow up, seriously, everything has its negatives. If you love the original trilogy but just don't like ODST, why suddenly hate Bungue and think the franchise is dead. That's like me saying the Mario franchise is dead because of that disaster of a game called Mario Galaxy. But I still love the franchise for the good games in it. OP, maybe you should just forget about ODST, it's clouding your judgement of a great franchise.[/quote] - Mark - I certainly understand where you are coming from, but when something great takes such a leap off a cliff; it needs to be called out. I feel like Bungie did a disservice to the franchise and their users by jumping the shark on this title. Not to mention the pricing was way off. To give you another example, lots of people liked Happy Days, but the only thing most people remember about the show now was when Fonzie jumped the shark. That was a ridiculous TV moment that became synonymous with failure. I think ODST provided the same moment for the Halo franchise. It is unbelievable to think that we waited so long for them to deliver a terrible game like that. I personally would have fired the game's concept designer. For your grow up comment, piss off. I was trying to help the poor schlep that would spend his/her hard earned money on such a -blam!- title. If you can't appreciate that, then get over it.[/quote] Well then you are obviously a very negative person. If you feel the need to call out negatives in things and let them ruin things, then you need to change your perspective. If you went on holiday for a week and had a great time, and then in the last day something bad happens, would you let it ruin the whole week? And no, I will not piss off. Firstly, why do you think it is overpriced? Secondly, do you even appreciate stuff like the characters and the story, or did you just decide it was terrible for whatever reason without paying attention to those things? I am intrigued
