I bought ODST a few weeks ago, and until earlier this week, it was pretty much gathering dust. Not for the lack of interest, but lack of time and opportunity to play the game. I haven't gone far in the game in the last few days, but so far I'm liking it a lot. There's this sense of claustrophobia and vulnerability that changes the game play from previous Halo games.

Again, not surprising, but still mightily impressive, although this scenario is bound to change once a certain other game releases (Hint: begins with a ‘C’, and ends with a ‘all of Duty: Modern Warfare 2’).
The situation may even change on the run-up to that game’s release, as fans of the series try to sharpen their Call of Duty 4: Modern... Read Full Story
