    Bungie Does It Again


    I will preface this by saying i'm not the worlds biggest Halo fan, I'll take Gears over Halo most days. That being said for whatever reason I prefer the campain for ODST over the Halo 3 ver.Master Chief.

I´ve always managed to get caught up in the hype machine for each game but this time I was kind of unaffected by it. I still decided to pick ODST up and boy did I benefit from my low expectations. I went in expecting an ok expansion for Halo 3 but before the campaign was over I ended up feeling like this is my favori...
