Forums - Gaming - First Review of Halo:ODST - 4/10

@kowenicki

I m just posting the review ,,,just like people that posted a review from an adult magazine for KZ2 that gave it a 7/10.

remember?we had a long discussion over that.Why not about this?

Haha, that is pretty funny :P

His criticisms of the game

Too short - this one is probably valid (I haven't played the game btw, but I don't think anyone would argue?)

Too expensive - I certainly wouldn't pay $60 for a 5 hour game, but if the multiplayer is good then single player length is unimportant

Too similar to Halo 3 - Whilst I agree that this is a downside (sorry, not a Halo fan) there are over 10 million people who consider this to be an excellent thing. Bungie should not be criticised for catering to their target audience.

Sniper Glitches - Dunno, he may just suck, or the game may have glitches

Darkness problems - adjust your tv dumbass

Note - other Wiispace reviews
PS360 version of Madden 10 received 8.5
Both the Fallout 3 expansions got an 8
Infamous got 8.5
World of Goo for the Wii only got 8.25

I don' think the reviewers are good, but they certainly aren't biased

Theres a bit of a difference.Come on you know that. A wii only website doing a review of a 360 game? The only reason they would is to say it's not as good as our wii games.

Hmmmm I wonder if they know how HD works. ;)



I believe your argument at the time Spartan, was that the thing was not worth posting.

So why would you post this now?

Hate to do this.

Halo 3 ODST is already confirmed as a 9-10 hour game.

Halo ODST has more content and replay value than 99% of Wii titles. So 60$ is a bargain. Of course the review is biased. You have to give the biggest title the competition have a low score. Otherwise they wouldn't feel right.

Dont worry about it

 

I would consider any game that lasts less than 30 hours to be too short. A game that I can get 50+ hours of gameplay from to be a good length, and 100+ to be great. You and I have different priorities in games, it's alright.

 

Of course it is biased? They produced dozens, perhaps hundreds of non biased reviews just so that when they bring out their biased review of Halo:ODST then people will think it's non biased? Sounds likely



@ selnor More content and replay value than 99% Wii games? Really? Have you played the game yet? Remember, this was supposed to be an expansion pack.

@ selnor )

I saw a 25 part(10min. a part) youtube video of someone comfortably doing it in 4 hours (last part was only credits), although I have to add that he played it in easy mode.

 Yeah the easy part is a big difference in a shooter. Plsythrough COD 4. On the easiest you can do it in less than 5. On Veteran it takes around 9 hours. So yeah. On Legendary he would still be there on Part 50 probably. LOL. This is nothing new. Easiest setting to show it as quickly as possible on Youtube. Happens to lots of games.

Reffering to replay value. It has all Halo 3 multi stuff plus new features and maps. Yeah it will have about 12- 24 month constant replay value if Halo 3 is anything to go by.



From what I understand this review is hardly relevant.
