Just clearing this up.
The NTSC version of Halo 3 works on PAL consoles.
It is likely that the NTSC version of ODST will also work on PAL consoles.
So if you want Johnson and live in the UK, order from US amazon, it will likely work on your console. And if not, you can return it.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Block Boy What are you talking about?[/quote] so many UK people are complaining that they won't be able to play as Johnson. There's an option.
