I had my worries with this game from day one, I enjoy Halo but I was not that impressed with the last one in the series. I am big fan of the novels and the background story, any game with a good story can make me a fan. So anyway with the demo released a few weeks back my worries got worse, I had friends telling me it was rubbish. Well those worries where for nothing...
I am impressed, it came out amazing!!
The story kept me interested, graphics where very good and the cgi cutscene's blew me away (I hope this is what we expecting for Halo ODST). The gameplay itself is very good, at first I was worried with the lack of base building (what's with RTS lately, they all seem to ditch base building) but you realise after a match or two why that's a good thing, there's so much going on you dont have time to guard a ton of buildings...one is hard enough.
For the score I would say a 9, and that's just barely got it. Only reason it got that is I can see myself playing the skirmish games/multiplayer with friends for fun so it does keep you coming back. Reason it failed to get a 10 is the game did not make me want to keep playing none stop and that's what is needed to get a 10 in my books.
Anyway overall I loved it and would recommend it to friends, it's another one to add to the list for game of the year. Well done!
