Looks like people aren't happy that ODST has not received the metacritic AAA status award.

I can't say that I really expected it to achieve AAA...it is built off the same Halo 3 engine.  I don't want to call it an expansion, but i still think M$ should have launched this title for $49.99.  They might have sold better, and would have likely resulted in a better perception about the game.  Even if M$ didn't want to set a price-precedence, they could have offered gamers a discount like Toys R Us is doing. 

- 6-7 hour long campaign that is one of the best single player campaigns of the year and that you will play multiple times
- New multiplayer mode that is extremely fun and which I only played twice and wasted 40 min combined
- All of Halo 3's maps, including 12 maps not in halo 3. These maps alone will cost 2200 pts (27 dollars)
-Halo Reach beta invite

How is this not worth full price? I agree that 49.99 would have been nice, I like cheap stuff too... but yeah, lets be realistic.

Like as a 360 user, you can spend that money elsewhere and buy something like wolfenstien or FEAR 2 or some other FPS that came out this year...but would you really? And is ODST and what it offers really worh less thn those games?
