Can't wait.
That's the story you'll read on the back of the box when ODST ships to stores on Sept. 22. But Bungie isn't exactly known for tying up loose ends, and like all Halo games, ODST just may end up raising more questions about the Haloverse than it answers. At PAX 2009, Bungie lead writer and ODST Creative Director Joe Staten made it clear that there's going to be more going on under the surface of the game than has been previously reported.

Remember the I love bees alternate reality game that surfaced as a marketing push for Halo 2? The company that made it, 42 Entertainment, spawned a splinter company called Fourth Wall Studios. And Bungie has been working with Fourth Wall on an entire sub-story that's buried within Halo 3: ODST. It's called Sadie's Story, and it follows the life of New Mombasa resident named Sadie during the final hours before everything goes to hell in the city during the events of Halo 2 (and subsequently ODST).

Staten showed a few fleeting images of Sadie's Story, which he co-wrote with Fourth Wall, in collaboration with renowned comic artist Ashley Wood. We saw concept art of Sadie on a commuter train, then an image that looked like a flash of violent red and black with multiple figures in silhouette... and then it was gone. Just a glimpse of what's to come.

Bungie didn't elaborate on how Sadie's Story will be presented in Halo 3: ODST, but we do know that adding it to the game doubled the amount of voice acting work the studio did for the overall project. And the story won't be told in a traditional action-and-cutscene format, but rather will be revealed in snippets as your character, the rookie, makes his way through the world, gathering clues about what went down in the city. Bungie says Sadie's Story ties in with the main ODST storyline and, consequently, the overall Halo meta-storyline.

so is ODST's multiplayer component based around the ODST's themselves? (as in less floaty jumping, no shields etc) or is it just going to be the halo 3 multiplayer? complete with random spartans and elites? id assume the former, but seeing as the game is coming with primerily halo 3 maps, i'm not entirely sure? anyone able to clarify?

There is no ODST multiplayer outside of fire fight.

It just comes with Halo 3 MP on a separate disk. Probably for the best anyway, it would suck if they fragmented the Halo players like that with a half assed "new" MP game anyway.

my god, the lower price point of this thing is somehow managing to look like an even bigger rip off.

so basically the only *new* thing ODST is bringing to the table is the short ass campaign?

i at least thought ODST was going to come with it's own multiplayer, even if it was sharing the same maps. at least it would FEEL different playing as the ODST...rental confirmed.

Hmmm.... so what do have...

- : Between 5hrs (Low Difficulty Rusher) and 10hrs (High Difficulty Explorer) campaign
- : 10 Firefight Missions
- : 24 Multiplayer Maps (of which 3 are new)
- : Halo Reach Multiplayer BETA

Pretty damn good value for just £30! I'm expecting about 8 hrs on Legendary 2player co op, Halo 3 took just over 12 hrs to do the same.
Amen to that!! Day one for me :)

Yeah if your not a fan of Halo MP or Firefight, then a rental is probably best.

As for me, its a pretty amazing deal as i've only ever bought 1 map pack so i'm basically getting 9 brand new maps, 10 firefight missions and a whole new ODST campaign. Even though its short, i've played and really enjoyed SP games just as short and let me not forget my access to Halo Reach BETA!!

it isnt so much not being a fan of the halo 3 multiplayer (it's the only good thing about halo imo), it's the fact i already have it....TWICE (own both the collectors and legendary edition of halo 3) i was kinda hoping ODST was going to offer something more...well...worthwhile. now i know it's 50% repackaged content...i think you're right, a rental seems to be best.

You might as well count other game's length playing in god mode.
4-6 on heroic for SP isn't "god mode." Wouldn't matter though as most consumers aren't great and don't want to sit in one spot forever hoping to luck out. Snipers in Halo 2 anyone...

I think it's safe to assume that Reach won't be talked about until after ODST's release - they even said in an interview that they don't want to talk about Reach whilst ODST is still very much the focus.

As ODST has beta invites this would actually help SELL ODST not hurt sales. #1 reason to get ODST in my opinion...

I thought that's why everyone was buying it? I'm sure as hell not paying $60 just for a mini-campaign, horde, and midship!

Some other people like me, opted not to buy it at all, even a beta of the complete unknown (what are the limits of this beta?) can't do it for me.

And sadly, with the release of this game, some horrible (imo of course) choices made to the Halo 3 MP--I just can't assume awesomeness from Bungie.

I don't give a damn about the BETA as MP is not really my thing, I'm buying this for SP and Firefight and a great story of course!
