Don't listen to these dumbshits. Halo 3 ODST is another achievement of the Halo universe.
Set to be a cheap expansion for Halo 3, the Bungie burst it's boundaries with so much content that Microsoft couldn't ship it as JUST an expansion.
Halo 3 ODST offers what Halo 3 didn't; Firefight mode (similar to Gears of War's Horde mode) and an slightly open-world campaign that brings a lot more fighting and action and slaughtering aliens. The gunplay is brought back its roots of Halo - health packs and no dual-wielding, which means every gun is useful on its own. You can also hold one extra grenade of each type (why didn't they have this is Halo 3?) bringing the total to 3 each, and also gives weapons kickback, making it a little more challenging to get kills. Brutes are actually tough this time around and knocking off their armor actually has a purpose.
As for the musical score, Martin O'Donnell hits it right on the mark. More jazzy than Halo 3's techno, it sets the mood nicely. He proves once again that he can craft incredible music for videogames.
Even though the campaign is short and people may say it isn't worth the buy, ODST brings different experiences than what Master Chief could ever bring. It certainly is a step up from its predecessor, and any and every Halo fan and Xbox 360 owner MUST play it.

Halo 3: ODST (initially named Halo 3: Recon) is a standalone expansion for the first-person shooter video game Halo 3 Players assume the roles of human UNSC soldiers known as Orbital Drop Shock Troopers (ODSTs) during the events prior to Halo 3.
It is said to be released at September 22, 2009. (Although they can always change the release date at anytime.) You can pre-order it at your local video game store (ex. Game Stop, EB Games etc.) and if you do then there will be a code to redeem Sgt. Johnson so he is playable in the game mode "Firefight."

The best of the Halo line so far. ODST takes you to the human side of the fight against the Covenant taking place before the days of Master Chief. The side effects to letting your loved ones get this game can and will show up at odd moments during the day.
Side effect includes:
1. Randomly yelling about stupid grunts being dumb.
2. Upon the completion of simple tasks using the words epic, legendary, owned, overkill, and/or random muttering about how one 'pwn'd' that shit..
3. Total lack of any kind of attention to the every day life around them.
4. When talking to someone about anything they make reference to something that Master Chief would do in that situation.
5. The forgetting of important dates due to needing to reach 200,000 points on Heroic Lost Platoon for the achievement that will finish off all 8 lvls they have been needing that for.
6. The noted drop in grades going from A's to D's because they wrote a paper on the subject of how Buck was the best player in all of Fire Fight and could easily get way more kills in real life then Sgt. Johnson.

*Can be used to counter 'Sad Story'*
When a friend tells you something of little relevance to your life/day but it very much affects their life/day so, in an attempt to be a good friend (meh) you acknowledge their plight but put it our of your mind immediately with a verbal recognition that yes, you heard them (and you really don't care). And you like Halo.

Is a kind scenario that happens, and requires more then simple explaination--or logic--to be fully understood at any point by the person who experienced it or anyone who got word of it.
Example 1: A dream that Rules 34 Die Hard and Neon Genesis Evangelion shouldn't need to be explained and only seems to be a ODST: Overly Demented Situation Transpiring.
Example 2: Mr Hyde ODST The Invisible man for LULZ.
