The guns are impactful and the enemies that you fight are a ton of fun. It felt good ten years ago, it feels good to play today, and it will probably always feel good. Gameplay is your standard Halo affair: you run around with guns and kill covenant forces. You can also tackle these missions in any order, depending on how which paths you take in the Rookie sections. Then we get the classic Halo vehicle focused missions that have you driving Scorpion tanks, Warthogs, and Mongooses in thrilling chase sequences and epic battles. Despite being set in one city, a solid attempt to add variety was appreciated. These missions are non-stop action and are a total blast to play, feeling much more like a traditional Halo title. Dutch and Micky are voiced by Firefly co-stars Adam Baldwin and Alan Tudyk respectively, and do a great job of making the characters their own. Buck, expertly voiced by the charismatic Nathan Fillion, is one of the best characters in the Halo universe. This is when ODST is at its very best, when you are with the supporting cast. As you make your way through the city, you will find clues to your squad’s whereabouts and will switch to their perspective at different times after dropping. To make matters worse, the covenant forces are still in the city and are looking for survivors. With no back-up, you are left to explore the city alone, only with the help of the city’s AI, known as the Superintendent, who will lead the Rookie to supply caches and giving subtle directional help. The objective is simple, find your squad in the city of New Mombasa. You play as the Rookie throughout the most of the game and he is kind of a blank slate that doesn’t say anything. It’s nice to take a step back and appreciate the smaller scope of ODST.

At this point in the franchise we are used to playing as a super soldier saving the entire universe from total destruction, with the series going ever forward with the forerunner threats and rampant AI. Instead, the story is all about a survival and trying to hold back a seemingly unstoppable force. The story doesn’t focus on universe ending threats, the Halo rings and the flood are pushed to the side. Several hours later, the Rookie wakes up and tries to regroup with his squad. Something goes wrong and the ODST’s are separated. You are sent into Earth’s capital of New Mombasa to deal with the covenant threat after the event’s of Halo 2. In this campaign you play as members of a Orbital Drop Shock Troopers squad, the ODST’s. I fell in love with this game ten years ago, but does it still hold up today? But one of my personal favourites is just an expansion sized spin-off, Halo 3 ODST. Since the fantastic Halo Combat Evolved that got me into first person shooters, to the perfect Halo 2 and Halo 3.
Halo has always been a series that has had my attention.
