Halo 3:ODST

They've removed the motion tracker and according to an E3 video I saw on Xbox Live, have brought back the Halo 1 pistol. Thoughts?

I thought they were calling it Stretch or 'sumpin?

They must've dropped it after they realized that's what the 100th installment of this game was going to be.

Stretch? What?

Nub. There is Halo 3:ODST, and then also newly announced Halo: Reach. Not affiliated with Halo 3 in any way.

Explain the two games for someone that is out of the loop, used to love Halo, and would easily get rehooked again if a new game came out.

Halo 3:ODST is technically an expansion to Halo 3. You play as an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper, not a UNSC Spartan like you did in Halo 1 - Halo 3. It looks really cool from the videos I've seen. Here's a gameplay trailer: http://www.gametrailers.com/video/e3...o-3-odst/50010 -- I guess there's a "Firefight" mode which is essentially like Gears of War 2's Horde mode. Since I haven't played GoW2 that much I don't know what that means.

Halo: Reach was just announced at E3. There's not too much known about it yet although bungie.net has a trailer. http://www.bungie.net/Projects/Reach/default.aspx

Nice, now I'm excited.
