Halo 3: ODST
Great addition to the Halo saga. ODST (Orbital Drop Shock Trooper) follows a band comprised of the badass shock troopers that join Master Chief in certain battles in Halo 3. The story is a prequel to Halo 3, taking place during the events of part two. Because you're playing regular humans (albeit exceptionally badass ones), certain abilities from playing a Spartan are gone. Should be interesting, and it looks great.
And that's disc one.

I'm looking at my stick of Old Spice to the right of me. It finds your guess erroneous. It forgives you, though.

Not yet... Let's pace ourselves. I can tell you now it's a 1st Person Shooter and will have more than one Spartan.

That's all I know, too. It's their last map pack so I'm guessing they're gonna hit all bases. A competitive map (Midship Remake), an asymmetrical concept map, and maybe a big one.

38, Commander Grade 3
I like to think I'm about two levels better than that, but you'd need to let me get my groove back. I played some games with Funk Bro and I was horrible (even if I was top score at times, nowhere near my best). Rusty as shit. |

i think i like halo 3 swat much more than halo 2. that being said, being that high in it sucks because 50% of the time you get a game with a horrible connection due to CHEATERS.

You should, still a fun game. I wanted to get back into it deep, but Bad Company and GH: Metallica is eating my time. I'm just... barely feeling competitive. When it boils over I guess I'd be back on Halo 3 and Street Fighter 4 big time.

Kinda tied up with MGS4 at the moment. Im really tempted to try MG Online, but the lag on MLB 09 is shit so I get nervous. Also I paid for a full year of Gold and I think Ive been online with my system a total of ..um...4 times?

I love squad based shooters, so I will definitely look into this.
Also, I need to get MGO. I played it quite a bit when MGS4 came out, but I need to get the actual game now. |

Though I'm in a terrible mood for recent events, I did find some extensive vids showing off the game from E3. See ya later.

Okay, so I finally got around to starting Halo last week, and finished it today. So far, I am not too impressed. It was very repetitive. The longest, most boring levels turned out to be the ones you had to go through again, backwards, which I can't believe they had me do (just make it a cut scene or something). I wasn't really motivated to finish it. The Flood are annoying. I'd rather be fighting the Covenant the entire time. And the final level, a timed run using the most horribly controlled vehicle I have ever driven. I really hope the controls are changed on the second one. Probably gonna wait a few weeks to start the second, because I'm not too thrilled right now.

It's not. The vehicles control the same through all 3 games. Except the ghost has a boost in 2 and 3.

Once you get used to it, it's not too bad.

Yeah, you can really run that Warthog after some practice with the physics. I actually dedicated an entire online session to learning that damn vehicle. Now I'm not too bashful to say I'm one of the most awesome guys you want on that thing.

Aside from the (most likely addictive) Firefight Mode in ODST, the game is bringing 3 more (final) maps for the Halo 3's multiplayer component. Bungie released shots of these final maps and they look great.
Heretic is a remake of Midship, a great competitive map from Halo 2. Looks like it's old awesome self. Citadel is a small symmetrical map with tight spaces. Looks like another competitively crafted map. Longshore. Is. Fucking. Huge. Good God. |
