When you hear the name Bungie the title HALO isn’t too far behind why? because that’s the game that gave Xbox their pass into this game industry. Halo is the type of game that doesn’t come along everyday but when it does it’s a major accomplishment, not just for the developers and gamers but for the industry as a whole.
Halo has rocked the world of gaming since it’s debut back in 2001 and 8 years later it’s still the game to top well until now. Halo 3: ODST is a game that we all expect to be amongst the elite when it was released but instead it was just a standard FPS with the HALO name engraved on it to generate sales.
Although the game is good this is HALO and that’s the difference because when you mention HALO in this industry the word GREAT should come right after that but the passion in this title obviously isn’t present this time around. WHAT HAPPENED BUNGIE?

I cant believe the garbage that comes out of this little man’s mouth sometimes. At the very least you’ll have something to talk about on this weeks Warzone. HHG is the biggest “Jounalist” Fanboy i’ve ever come across. Not even PS3 only sites spread as much BS that HHG does. I guess he’s good for laughs. The Industry knows that as do the gamers. Hip Hop LAMER strikes again.
yo, why don’t you leave a comment on what he’s saying, or even the question he asked at the end of the vid? you a straight up gas face case.
at the end of the day, when you take that halo hype out of the title…scores and reception would be different. it would get fucked for trying to be “too much like halo.” even gametrailers does that shit, comparing any game to halo; even non-FPS.
HIPHOP FLAMER!
ugh… all I can say about his….
I dont think HHG knows ODST was made by Bungie as a DLC pack. Microsoft knew it would sell for $60 so they did it. This was never made to push the graphical power of the xbox just expand the story of Halo as an expansion. Halo Reach is supposed to be the big hitter which will be using a new engine.
Also I like how everyone loves the soundtrack of ODST by saying it was one of the best soundtracks in recent gaming but you play it down.
HHG is just trying to squeeze out hits right now which is making me go to thebitbag.com instead of his site. I like how he would give lesser games insane hype but gives ODST the boot. Maybe if Microsoft started sending him to Halo press conferences he would change his tune…
ODST agrees with that statement and is amazed that a ps3 fanboy such as yourself flipit3 can make such a comment
Nah ODST had some wierd moments when the music playing DID NOT match the intensity displayed on screen… I cannot agree with best soundtrack not in my opinion, not by far.
gaylo odst lol
WOW!!!
HipHop I know u dont play games on the the 360 so please dont comment on them because you dont know WTF your talking about with bungie and odst and your review of the game proves that. This wasnt halo 4 it isnt even halo 3.5 it was an expansion. maybe they wanted to test the odst in this short form before reach or something else.ODST sold 2.2 million in 24hours and it has over a million playing it IM sure people are happy with it.Your trying to make it out like bungi just threw this out and didnt give a damn . they made this between 12-14 months. once again stick to the ps3 and home.
Your review Halo odst more hype less Gameplay.
-Gameplay
You said odst gets very boring,running around not doing to much,Multiplayer is “halo” its ok
not much new
-Sound
Horrible,bad,boring sound
-Graphics
ok,nothing special,bland flat texures,
After that you gave it a 8/10 and said good game
now the developer is tired of halo,bored with halo,doesnt give a damn about a fanchise that made bungie and a fanchise in a short amount of time has sold close to 20 million. Im not saying odst is perfect but when the majority of people say the gameplay is the best in the fanchise and the sound is the best part of the game then u spew this yucky yuck i just FACE PALM.
to answer the question , if people thought the game was fun which they do then i dont think it would matter what the game looks like. “halo” helps the game but overall the game is very good. Killzone looks and sounds great but theres noone playing that shit online so presentation isnt everything
more like halo 1-3 sold around 25 million not 20… actually might be over 25 now… er close…..
way to fuck yourself over by mentioning killzone.
LMFAO!!!! Word.
Yeah now we know how much research and knowledge he knows about Halo 3 or ODST. Wow HHG on Easy?
http://www.bungie.net/stats/halo3/default.aspx?player=bullets360
well if this is his gamertag….. its nice to see he only played a fraction of the game and on easy of all things and then comes here with a 15 min vid about how the game basically isn’t good….. great journalism there…. people better smash this on Friday…. Hell he played on easy and then I check his tag he only had 50 gamerscore for the game and is developing an opinion of it?…. right
Yeah he posted his gamertag on this article on his website. Only 7 minutes by himself on Firefight 1 game. Yet he knows the ins and outs of the game. I am not talking about if he likes the game or not. I have issue with the research he claims he puts into alot of his articles. Then you look at his profile for Halo 3 and he played only 10 times doesn’t play multiplayer at all and then goes on about discussing Halo is all about multiplayer and the research he did with with is simply by word of mouth basically others opinions not his own experience for him to reach that conclusion.
Im fine with everything else you said but your getting on him for playing it on easy? Really? Me and my friends used to have this code between us that every game we get or play we start off on the hardest available difficulty. Not only did that lead to many frustrating nights but also made me hold off other games just for stupid bragging rights. Now i play on the normal difficulty before venturing into harder especially with games nowadays which unlock even harder difficulties after beating it once. My point is he played through it on Easy just to get the experience and to run through the game. So what there are plenty of people who do it. You mean there some standard in which “real gamers” can’t play games on easy?
Your description makes sense Da_Dios but when you clearly see his profile he doesn’t accomplish basically anything on either ODST or Halo 3 to even have the audacity to do a proper review. You don’t do a review and play the game on easy but then criticize the difficulty. He did that. I don’t have a problem with him playing easy. I have a problem that is short stint in gameplay was based off of basically simplistic gameplay he has clearly not spent anytime to form any opinion. If he had did what you describe then it would have some say about the gameplay.
Tor can call out other website about their bullshit but look away when hhg flamebait article like these.
This is just a very very bad article. It seems like he is just riding the waive of ODST hate to get hits while at the same time saying its a “good game” to avoid the bashing he clearly would receive if he said it was wack. How can HH hype bad games like GI:Joe, Transformers, Godfather and countless other shitty games but you shit on ODST?. This game is an EXPANSION PACK. If you compare ODST to ever other expansion pack released this gen ODST is the best. Is it just me or whenever HH says anything good about the 360 there is no passion or any real feeling behind it? like he is just saying it just to say it or just going with the crowd?. i don’t agree with basher’s view on reviewing games, but i find this amount of research of the game to be completely unqualified to review ODST. 1 level on easy? 1 game of firefight?? Come on lets get serious here. Step your game up HH or just come out of the closet and admit to being a PS3 fanboy. How can you say Bungie is tired of halo? the franchise that made them? if that’s the case, PD must be tired of making GT, Turn 10 must be tired of making FM, IW must be tired of making Call of Duty’s. SixAmpFuze, mboojigga and OOG posted very good comments before me and i hope this does get talked about on the warzone this week because this is a very good topic. Hopefully Tor does not get a case of the Ray Charles…..
You guys really don’t pay attention to anything seriously so I guess i have to break it down for you guys a little before friday. First of all stop responding off of quick emotion and really take to heart what I’m saying.
1. Halo 3: ODST is a good game no doubt but as a fan of halo and knowing the capabilities of Bungie this version of Halo seems to just be a game they put out there to hold you over for halo reach meaning that because HALO is so huge it’s gonna sell anyway.
2. The passion statement revolves around this here’s an example. Torrence can’t stand auto tune right and He’s a huge fan of KRS ONE let’s say KRS ONE release a whole album done in auto tune similiar to what kanye west did Torrence would be upset and he would feel let down that one of his major artist that he loves and follow put out something of less quality of what they normally do. That’s what i mean by loss of passion
3. Metal Gear 4, Gran Turismo, These games never come out until the developer says it’s ready, they don’t rush, they miss deadlines, they do what they have to do to remain a perfectionist in this business, Now before you guys say GT5 Prologue was just a game to hold you over until GT5, well look at GT5 Prologue breaking the graphics barrier 1080p/60 fps , alot of events, better gameplay, A game at that quality for 40 dollars is incredible and still a major representation for Nex Gen Gaming,
4. Halo is the type of game that when it’s released everyone in the game industry is supposed to stop and take notice it’s not like ODST was a add-on to halo 3 back in 2007 this is a game coming out 2009 as it’s own IP expansion or not bungie is great so gamers deserve to receive that greatness. Example Halo 1 was amazing then halo 2 introduced dual wielding for the first time you feel me, changing shit up adding more to the gameplay that’s what bungie is known for
5. Halo 3:ODST the major differences is no master cheif, and 4 different perspectives of a short story other than that everything else is exactly the same, graphics, gameplay, weapons, all the same, now anyone that’s a fan of halo and love bungie are you seriously gonna accept that knowing that within 2 years so much more could’ve been added that would not have taken much time to implement.
6. MY article did not bash Halo or bungie what it did was point out the fact that bungie is great and that me personally along with anyone that cares about the franchise after waiting 2 years for this title expected alot more from a great company, and a great franchise that’s all. TOUGH LOVE
7. In terms of playing the game on EASY, and playing a little bit of the firefight mode so what I played enough to know that the game doesnt’ do much of anything new it’s just HALO same weapons, same enemies, same gameplay, i don’t need to beat the game on the hardest level for that to be proven to me. I played a decent amount of the game and the few times that i played on a harder level the A.I. was incredible but that’s no surprise halo always had incredible A.I
8. all of you saying that i’m hating on halo and shit you guys are fucking full of it, ain’t no way in the world i’m a stand on line for halo 2, and halo 3, day one and not be a passionate fan of the series, you guys is just mad that somebody had balls to point out the fact that even though bungie is great it appears that they were laid back on this release of halo.
FRIDAY LET’S Get It Poppin I’m waiting for anyone to talk shit
I disagree with this article, 1000%
I would have only disagreed with it 100% but after seeing your Bungie.net profile I can’t believe you even posted this. You haven’t experienced ODST at all as far as I’m concerned. I’ll admit that I’m only 30min into the campaign but I’ve put in over 4 hours on Firefight.
Yay for freedom of speech.
Torrence….i listen to your podcast all the time. I give you and the rest of the crew great respect. I too also believe in freedom of speech. However there is a degree of to which that freedom should be given. If ignorance like this is to be allowed, let it be on HHG’s site where it belongs, but by allowing this ignorant trash to be placed on your site only tarnishes your own image. I understand the loyalty to all the bitbaggers, but come on, even you said you disagree with this 1000% and that HHG is in no position to make those claims according to his bungie.net profile.
Please dude, don’t allow this crap on your site. To even have the title of “Bungie Loses Passion For Halo Franchise” is such a disrespect to the hard working developers at Bungie who put their heart and soul into their games. Torrence, do the right thing and don’t post this complete ignorance of a so called “show”. This is just HHG’s ignorant Sony fanboyism fueling the fires of all the other ignorant Sony Fanboys.
I thought your site was here to help educate gamers…you really think this trash is educating them, or promoting ignorance to them? I think you know the answer and what the right thing to do is here.
You can disagree with the article all you want Big T but let me say this dog me personally at my crib i played fire fight for a little while and it was cool but nothing special in my opinion. and my boy who’s a halo fanatic I’ve played with him , watched him play for a good while and still it’s ok. I’m not big on firefight dog even horde mode in gears 2 the shit gets boring, it’s a hot feature to have in a game but i don’t really care too much for it. I’ll rather just play against people online in deathmatch and shit and call it a day.
and my article is not based around firefight mode in halo so for you too disagree with a article because of one little feature then that means you didn’t fully listen to the article if that’s all you came up with in terms of making your decision not to like it.
and based on what I said in my article please tell me what i’m wrong about, what did i leave out, mention things like that and this goes for anybody, then and only then you guys will make sense.
YES this is an expansion right so in 2 years what did they really expand on SERIOUSLY? this is bungie we talking about here they supposed to represent big time and they didn’t. One thing they did was show the fans one hell of a fan service with the maps on the multiplayer disc now that’s crazy right there for those that don’t have em all but other than that where’s the new shit
Based on your Bungie profile you haven’t played one game of multiplayer at all so I am pretty sure it doesn’t matter that they provided all the maps on the disc because you weren’t playing them in the first place. I don’t get why the concern for anyone else buying this product because they “may” have bought the DLC prior. I did and I am here to tell you don’t be concerned about me. I bought Halo ODST for Firefight and the STORY(Key WORD don’t lose it)
You say you stood in line and when we see your profile I have to ask WTF for on day one did you do that for because you haven’t bothered to play much of it. Yet you keep claiming you played a whooping 7 minutes and now you claim oh yeah “I watched over my boys shoulder”
“1. Halo 3: ODST is a good game no doubt but as a fan of halo and knowing the capabilities of Bungie this version of Halo seems to just be a game they put out there to hold you over for halo reach meaning that because HALO is so huge it’s gonna sell anyway.”
Just like GT P was a demo to hold us over for GT5. That was their whole point was to hold you over. Your trying to use that as if it is a bad thing. They provided a good product with new gameplay regardless if you don’t like it that is new gameplay.
“2. The passion statement revolves around this here’s an example. Torrence can’t stand auto tune right and He’s a huge fan of KRS ONE let’s say KRS ONE release a whole album done in auto tune similiar to what kanye west did Torrence would be upset and he would feel let down that one of his major artist that he loves and follow put out something of less quality of what they normally do. That’s what i mean by loss of passion”
You really just need to stop with the analogies because they don’t work. Regardless your profile speaks for itself to tell us you really have no position to even have a proper opinion about the game to take seriously. That is the whole point.
“3. Metal Gear 4, Gran Turismo, These games never come out until the developer says it’s ready, they don’t rush, they miss deadlines, they do what they have to do to remain a perfectionist in this business, Now before you guys say GT5 Prologue was just a game to hold you over until GT5, well look at GT5 Prologue breaking the graphics barrier 1080p/60 fps , alot of events, better gameplay, A game at that quality for 40 dollars is incredible and still a major representation for Nex Gen Gaming,”
Still waiting for a video or article you had with Bungie since your title claims they lost their passion with ODST. You are still ignoring the facts and telling you them seem like they will go out one ear and the other.
“4. Halo is the type of game that when it’s released everyone in the game industry is supposed to stop and take notice it’s not like ODST was a add-on to halo 3 back in 2007 this is a game coming out 2009 as it’s own IP expansion or not bungie is great so gamers deserve to receive that greatness. Example Halo 1 was amazing then halo 2 introduced dual wielding for the first time you feel me, changing shit up adding more to the gameplay that’s what bungie is known for”
Hiphop,
The industry did take notice. They moved the dates of some of their games into 2010.
“5. Halo 3:ODST the major differences is no master cheif, and 4 different perspectives of a short story other than that everything else is exactly the same, graphics, gameplay, weapons, all the same, now anyone that’s a fan of halo and love bungie are you seriously gonna accept that knowing that within 2 years so much more could’ve been added that would not have taken much time to implement.”
Yet you are still getting it all wrong. You haven’t played the game as again I point to your profile that proves you don’t know what you are talking about.
“6. MY article did not bash Halo or bungie what it did was point out the fact that bungie is great and that me personally along with anyone that cares about the franchise after waiting 2 years for this title expected alot more from a great company, and a great franchise that’s all. TOUGH LOVE”
I don’t believe you bashed Halo at all I just think you don’t know what you are talking about. You all of a sudden care about Halo? You have said on many occasions how you don’t care for the gameplay so which is it? You still have yet to understand the basics of why the game was made and you continue to ignore it. You sat in the E3 conference. Where was all of this concern then? Where were your instincts on it when you were claiming every game you play is GOTY potential. How did you miss the boat on this one?
“7. In terms of playing the game on EASY, and playing a little bit of the firefight mode so what I played enough to know that the game doesnt’ do much of anything new it’s just HALO same weapons, same enemies, same gameplay, i don’t need to beat the game on the hardest level for that to be proven to me. I played a decent amount of the game and the few times that i played on a harder level the A.I. was incredible but that’s no surprise halo always had incredible A.I”
You played for 7 minutes on Firefight and thats about it. You continue to ignore facts but just like the EDTV(non debate seriously)
“8. all of you saying that i’m hating on halo and shit you guys are fucking full of it, ain’t no way in the world i’m a stand on line for halo 2, and halo 3, day one and not be a passionate fan of the series, you guys is just mad that somebody had balls to point out the fact that even though bungie is great it appears that they were laid back on this release of halo.”
Still waiting for that interview you had with Bungie. Not made you had whatever balls you felt you needed to say somthing that pretty much alot of NON Halo players actually say. You haven’t brought anything new to the table that we hear all the time. My issue is how little you actually know about Halo in terms of story, gameplay and just simple knowledge of the development that has been stated coutnless times. The video you posted a week or so before the game was released had more gameplay than you did with your video review and profile we see on Bungie.net to have more credibiliy for a review than what you provided.
lol….. nuff said…. if I’m able to make it to the warzone (thanksgiving weekend in Canada) ill say something or love to see someone go at it.
It’s a done deal. We goin at it this Friday.
good to see tor…. ugh I hope I can make it… lol if not im sure it will be entertaining listening to the recording regardless lol
All the ppl that are saying HHG didnt play it enough to judge are hypocrites. You all are the same idiots that bash GT5p and killzone 2. Dont try to hide it.
Also there is a huge difference between GT5p and Halo ODST. GT5p was built on a brand new engine to accomadate the 1080p/60fps. While it was a small game the amount of work Polyphony did was monumental to ODST. GT5p was also only $39.99. Halo ODST was a full retail of $59.99
ODST was built off the same Halo 3 engine. There was no visual progression from Halo 3 to ODST imo. All they gave you was a new campaign and firefight. If you want a horde mode nobody does it better than NAZI Zombies. People who already bought Halo 3 got fucked over imo.
Amen brotha!
I don’t care if you or someone else loves or hates halo odst or any other game. What I said about your review and what I took from your review was that is is a decent game or an ok game. Â Your negatives seemed to out way your positives and then at the end u call it a good game and give it an 8/10. By your review I was thinking 6/10. Â That’s what I didn’t like about your review. The score didn’t match your description of the game.
-Passion
You clearly make it out like bungie lost passion in halo and that’s why odst is shitty. That’s what your headline says and that’s the way you expressed it in your video but then your analogy is Torrence the consumer being upset with krsone and not krsone being upset with themselves.
It sounds like your talking about odst as a standalone title when bungie has stated that odst was a small project that took 12-14 months and was started to be an expansion. Or a spinoff of halo 3 in the perspective of other soldiers. Odst is not halo 4 . Odst is basically the same as the expansions for oblivion just with more maps or something. Does odst not having “nextgen” graphics mean it’s not a good game because when you talk about “representing next gen” it’s always graphics. Gameplay is more important and according to sales and reviews te gameplay is perfect. Good example is portal. Decent graphics but brought great gameplay. Or left 4 dead. Running on the ancient source engine  has awesome gameplay. 007 for n64 was nice graphics at the time but the gameplay is what sold that game and “halo” isn’t built around cutting edge graphics  or really a story but more of the multiplayer and single player gameplay.
Now once again I don’t care I’d u love or hate halo but doyour  reviews the right way .
See this is te perfect example to why I’ve always said game reviews should be don’t the oldschool gamepro way, by doing each catagory seperate. Now listening to your review I would think the scores work out like this
-Graphics 3.5/5
-Sound 2.5/5
-control 4.0/5Â
-gameplay 3.5/5
-Multiplayer 4/5
 or base each score out of 10 to give more flexability qith reviews and mutliplayer has to be reviews seperately .
I just felt your score didn’t match your review. I dunno I like disagree with shit alot, I’m bored.
Sir if u don’t step your game up I will be forced to  get on a 6 train take it down to 42st get on a train to queens go to your house and steal your ps3, then  give it to a very very very very gay man.
Â
*Sir if u don’t step your game up I will be forced to get on a 6 train take it down to 42st get on a train to queens go to your house and steal your ps3, then give it to a very very very very gay man.*
But then you’d just be giving it back to him ;D
Seriously though, that wouldn’t be considered a good review, much less a review. I know you have passion, HHG, but you need to do your research. Shit, I got flamed when I did that Street Fighter 2 HD Remix. Know why? I didn’t do enough research! Putting in the time you did for ODST and coming up with an excuse of “watching a friend who is a Halo fan” isn’t good enough. Also, having those Sony products (which seemed to outweigh the other company products) while giving a review for a Microsoft game isn’t very convincing either ;D
Create a new back set via green screen, if you can, and be creative with how you want to present yourself. Or rather, don’t have any company products shown in your intro, but rather do what the AVGN does and show what gaming system you will be playing on with the game disc as well. Just my 2 cents.
Why do you allow hhg to post this bs on your site tor?
Once again I was raped by my itouch.  I am sry for  the fuck ups in my post . My itouch hates me and because I was standing on a street corner on someones wifi I had to type quick before I lost the signal.
Also hhg I don’t think u bashed halo odst at all but like  mboo I don’t think you know what your talking about and you just proved it. You said  all the key elements to odst  are bad to ok but gave it a good score.Â
Graphics bland , old textures
Sound horrible
Gameplay boring at times . Â Nothing new
Multiplayer firefight ok nothingspecial or great about it.
But u gave it an 8. I’m demanding u give it a 6.also u keep saying it took 2 years to make when it took 12-14 months max.
Damn i post a comment and comeback and the world has been site fire lol. How can HH say the industry didn’t take notice? n4g was set ablaze when the game came out, ppl where waiting on lines all around the country, great reviews all around, 2.2 million in 24 hrs!!! that’s more sold in 24 hrs then damn near any Sony exclusive lifetime sales to date. HH you say your giving bungie “tough love” but when IGN where giving Sony “tough love” you where quick to post a rebuttal article. Arnt they entitled to there opinion just like you? Why am i not surprised you pulled out the “my friend” excuse to back yourself up. FACTS ARE FACTS that you should not have any sort of opinion on this game because you clearly lack information or spent enough time with the game to even be qualified to have one. That’s like someone buying forza, playing 3 career mode races,1 online race that he quit mid race then FORMING A REVIEW followed by article saying turn 10 lost the passion. GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE HHG. step your game up man like seriously. Your making yourself look completely unprofessional and a straight up ass. ppl forget that when GT5p came out ppl where complaining about the price because it was just a demo and didn’t see the $40 value in it. its ok in your eyes HHG for PD to “hold ppl over” but when bungie does it you wanna come at there necks. IMO ODST is more value then GT5P because in my opinion the online mode sucked incredible ass and 5 messily ass tracks that only 3 are worth playing are not worth 40 beans. you basically payed for the 71 cars. Another thing you fail to understand as stated before is this is not HALO 4. it is Halo 3: ODST. Aol keyword: Halo 3. You asked what did it expand on? The STORY. Your Analogy about KRS one is completely stupid in every single way. If KRS decided to make an “auto tune” album thats not a LOSS OF PASSION that is a STYLE CHANGE or CREATIVE CHANGE Not a loss of passion. HHG i beg you to do some research on the subjects, articles you post about because you look foolish time and time again. You have not learned from the Ass kicking you took with the PC gaming debates nor have you learned from the HDTV debates and the more you walk around with your head up your ass and refuse to learn anything from the ppl and fans that try and educate you the more you look inferior to the ppl around you. The more that happens the more ppl lose interest in you
why do u guys let hiphop get to you.I have no promblem with hiphop but i dont take him serious as i do Tor.Hiphop if u ask me is worse then gamesonsmash atleast gameson smash u know what u are getting hiphop always says hes not a fanboy but we all know the truth.So dont let it bother u guys u know he thinks hes right about everything.
Plus we all know if this was a sony game hiphop would not be saying this.Hiphop thinks every sony exclusive is golden.If it was killzone that sold 2.2 millon copies hiphop would be talking about that.It has always been the case with hiphop.Hiphop wont listen unless someone bashes the ps3.Why dont he make something defending the wii or 360 when sony reps say something.WE ALL KNOW WHEN DRAKE COMES OUT IF ANYBODY SAYS THEY DONT LIKE IT ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY R NOT A REAL GAMER.
At least someone recognizes what fellow developers are doing in the industry. Who would of thunk it.

You know whats really hilarious…. If HHG writes flamebait what does that make ALL of YOU who got your panties all tied up in knots? If you all really feel that way it’s like mice and a mouse trap, i swear the same rules apply to the internet as in real life. You don’t like something stay away. If you go into a store or supermarket and they don’t sell any coca cola products are you gonna write a letter and complain? Are you gonna stand in the aisle and yell? Or are you gonna go somewhere else where they sell coca cola products? This store could be your favorite store in reasonable proximity but you go there with the understanding that it doesn’t sell Coca cola products and deal with it. Bitching serves only two purposes
1) Business for Kleenex
2) Makes you look pitiful
Learn to compromise my fellow bitbaggers, and grow up. He hasn’t a leg to stand on about the passion piece it’s all opinion and you all know this. I could understand if he passing his opinion off as if it was fact but he’s not. He tried that in the PC gaming is dead debate and you see where it’s gotten him…..
Let us all be real for a second, ODST is a fun game but really i think we all should share the common thought that it should have been DLC pushed like GTA was. There’s no doubt in my mind they would still sold the 2.2m or whatever it was. Coming from a household in which Halo 3 already co-exists the second disc was a waste of my purchase and the campaign just was OKAY…. I think all of this emotion is stemming from HHG talking semi-bad about everyones favorite game. Shit happens we all don’t have to blow an artery everytime we disagree with HHG.
Funny you know where you all lose at? When you go and try to prove HHG wrong on his opinion of the game. How can any of you dispell HHGs claim that he hasn’t played the game enough? Isn’t it possible that he played the game offline? Under another gamertag? There’s just endless defenses to display. It’s his opinion whether it took him 7 minutes, 7 hours or 70 hours. It’s fine to disagree but this just seemed like endless bitching/attacking. There are way more oppurtunities in which HHG or bitbag affiliates contradict themeselves like braynbasher saying he would buy a PS3 slim then turning around getting rock band beatles (face palm) and complaining that funds are low now…
Deuces!
Dios, HHG’s got passion, there’s no doubt about that. I’m glad that he’s going in another direction by reviewing Microsoft games. However, there’s a farcry of a difference between giving your opinion and giving a poorly researched review. And on top of that, throwing in the comment “I saw a friend play it” for rebuttle.
@HHG, as cool as you are and as busy your life must be (seeing how you don’t face me in Resistance 2), please try to lose the “The man is holding me down” mentality. By saying that, I refer to you saying what you have to say to not being proven wrong on practically every subject. Sure, you got all rights to defend yourself, but sometimes you got to step back and know how much information you have compared to the people you are discussing with. There’s no shame in admitting that you are wrong, just be humble and move on.
Again, you have the passion and the heart, but please be careful on what subjects you touch and the amount of research done. Keep playing, gamer

HHG, come on man you know that most of the gaming demographic considers you a
“PS3 Fanboy” , so what do you do? Come up with a “RANDOM” rant on one of the biggest exclusives on the 360. We know that you wanna get an article that will catch fire with hate and give you hits, but trust me man its not worth it.
Maybe if you have ranted on other prior big title games and how they have several flaws then maybe most people would have accepted your opinion.
Kinda like how
GTA 4
is repetative as hell and how the design and gameplay really havent changed since GTA 3.

MSG4
takes forever to install, has around 8-9 hours of gameplay and how the multiplayer is utter shit.
kinda like that.
You claim to have over 100 PS3 games but if you compare ODST to more than half of games it destroys them. If you agree with me then why dont you rant on the 50 plus games that are not up to par to ODST and how those developers lost passion to those franchises or the introduction to an IP. Why? Because its HALO????? What difference does it make its a game, whether its called Halo or Haze, both have experienced developers with high expectations. It seems pretty clear that you made up your decision about this game before you even played it, YOU KNEW it was gonna be with the same engine, FPS, with no cover system just different story and firefight, quite frankly you u really didn’t even need to play the game or in your case 10 minutes to make this rant, all you had to do is buy the soundtrack to see how sad the music was.
1. First of all you guys with this sony fanboy stuff is funny I guess you forgot about this video amongst others that I have made havent’s ya’ll
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ats0K6XCwHQ&feature=player_profilepage
2. Also lol you guys are taking this gamertag crap too far lol it’s funny I’ve played so much of ODST dog that I already know how that game is and also it doesnt take me an hour to figure the shit out homey within the first 10 minutes once you get a hang of the controls and do your first level you know how the game plays and feels and personally if you saw my review that was from the fourth stage i beleive and i’m passed that part already so yeah homey i know the gameplay very well enough to give an opinion.
this shit isn’t rocket science dog aight, and also fire fight is a fuckin survial mode dog lol waves of enemies with friends how long has that shit been around in video games, now it’s in HALO ok cool that’s a fun experience but i don’t need to spend hours doing the same shit over and over again lol. at the end of the day FRIDAY IS HERE so we’ll get this poppin later WELCOME TO THE MOTHERFUCKIN WARZONE HOMEY
HHG you are a sad and pathetic Sony Fanboy that has every Sony characteristic trait associated to you.
Who are you to say “Bungie Loses Passion For Halo Franchise�
Where is your article about PD losing their passion because GT5P is the same as GT4 HD, or GT 3, or GT2…etc since each iteration is the same damn game? What about Naughty Dog losing their passion because each R&C game is the exact same as the last but with better graphics? Where is the articles that David Jaffe has lost his passion for God Of War 3 since its the same damn thing as GOW2 and GOW1? Where is your article that Sony has lost their passion with the Wideout franchise because each Wipeout game is the same as the last one?
You are a typical Sony Fanboy with ZERO credibility in the gaming journalism industry. You promote ignorance to other Sony Zealots which in turn spread their ignorance to others. I hope you NEVER get an interview with Bungie with an article like what you have posted on your so-called show.
You will always live in your Grandma’s basement promoting your ignorance until you grow up and start using your head. Then you may get recognized in the gaming industry and actually land a REAL show within the gaming industry as you are full of Gaming passion…just to bad your loyalty is so strong with the Sony name brand.
Nobody is going to prove anything thats the way u feel about odst thats the way you feel.Im saying the way u feel about this game its fine.But your are acting like bungie just put the game out after working on it for 2 months or something.Ppl have a right to tell how they feel about a certain game.
U can say what you want about halo odst but there is no way 2.2 millon ppl think bungie pushed it out the door.Now u might have a couple of thousand ppl that feel like u but thats with anygame somebody is going to hate it.
Hey HH how many PS3 games do you have (120) I know this because you always brag about it and how many 360 games do you have, well you have never said , all you have said is you trade in you 360 games for the PS3 VERSION or GIVE it AWAY if thats not a fanboy I dont know what is
He said he has 140 ps3 games (mostly givin to him for review so i dont know why he brags about it so much) and 7 360 games last time i herd him say.
