Not much to discuss.


Interesting, but I want an action game. Halo will have to work hard for a stealth game.

I can't wait. I've always loved ODSTs.

I think it's definitely got potential, I'm glad that it focuses on someone other than master chief for once.
Not sure if the whole game's going to be stealthy like in the trailer, it'd be interesting to see how bungie does it if that's how the game's going to be played.

They said somewhere that it wouldn't be stealthy, and that it would be pretty much halo 3 without master chief.

It's Squad-based, so it'll be more like Ghost Recon than Splinter Cell or Call of Duty.

Not quite.

"Is Halo 3 : Recon a 3rd person / squad based shooter?

Nope. "Recon" is definitely first person and it's definitely still a Halo game as you've come to know it. That said, playing as an ODST in this new setting will bring some new twists to the gameplay."

Yet it will be 4 player co op, making it somewhat squadbased. It's ok to play through alone, just like Halo 3, but you can play with friends to get a different experience.

It is only squad based when in Co-op, but then again so is Halo 3 anyway.

It is going to be interesting to see how and what they do with this.

If you have friends with a 360 and H3, all you had to do was system link. It wasn't actually that difficult.

I don't want to bring my xbox all the way to my friends house. It would be so much better if they had it local.
