4.5/5 ★ – Pixelguy9's review of Halo 3: ODST.

Halo 3: ODST stands out amongst Bungie's fantastic lineup of Halo titles; offering a new take on the series while still managing to provide some of the strongest gameplay and narratives the franchise has to offer. Halo 3: ODST's story feels more character driven then the previous titles, with a whole cast of loveable figures to get behind. Combine this with Sadie's story, which has been perfectly sprinkled throughout the city, and you have one of the best detective stories in gaming, something that should not work as well as it does. Halo 3: ODST wouldn't be what is without its masterful score, somehow fitting perfectly with both the empty streetscapes of New Mombasa, and the firefights that take place with them. Halo 3: ODST should be considered one of Bungie's greatest titles, and its criminal we haven't been able to drop feet first into another game like it since.
