    The Halo 3: ODST port on PC is essentially perfect, and so far, it's 343 Industries' best work with the Master Chief Collection.

    Like all releases in the Master Chief Collection, Halo 3: ODST isn’t a perfect port. It has flaws, particularly in Firefight and with regard to the game’s audio logs. That said, the fact that 343 continues to make these games run as well as they do on a platform they were never designed for so long after their original releases is nothing short of a minor miracle. The MCC continues to improve with each patch and I have no doubt that the problems here will eventually be fixed. In the meantime, we can enjoy ODST in all of its glory. It’s still the most stylish and unique Halo game and being able to play it, and its incredible version of Firefight again, is wonderful. I’m happy to return to New Mombasa, to wander its ruined streets and let the sounds of rain and smooth jazz wash over me. More than a decade later, there’s still nothing quite like it. You know the music. Time to dance.

    Today on PC, the campaign for Halo 3: ODST is a mere $4.99. A majority of the troopers may not be the most engaging, but the combat and music are a treat. The weapons, from the Spartan Laser to the Brute Plasma Rifle, are a blast to use. The game also brings ODST Firefight mode to The Master Chief Collection for all of your survival needs.

    Compared with the elite Spartan, although the adventures written by ODST in mortal bodies are a bit less legendary, there are more human emotions that players can resonate in the game.

    I played this game a lot on the 360, it was and still is my favorite halo game. I've beaten the campaign more times than I can remember onI played this game a lot on the 360, it was and still is my favorite halo game. I've beaten the campaign more times than I can remember on each difficulty and have marathoned it multiple times. So naturally, the very first thing I did when it launched on MCC 2 days ago was marathon it on legendary and I don't regret it. This rerelease on the pc is extremely faithful to the original version of the game. The graphics for this game have aged extremely well minus a few textures and human faces. The pseudo open world of New Mombassa is still great to explore and you still have the option of sneaking past enemies to avoid fights or killing them. Some of the hit registration and damage for weapons seemed whacky and off at times but was never a big problem, something I just noticed. This port of ODST is not only great for people who have never played the original game, but also for those that played it back on the 360.… Full Review »

    Essa DLC me surpreendeu positivamente, como não teria o Chief na história achei que seria sem graça, mas me diverti mais que no jogo base!Essa DLC me surpreendeu positivamente, como não teria o Chief na história achei que seria sem graça, mas me diverti mais que no jogo base!

    ---== Gráficos ==--
    Não houve nenhuma melhoria com relação ao 3, mas é muito bem feito.
    As armas, personagens, inimigos e cenarios muito bem caprichados.

    ---== História ==--
    Nesta história você conhece um novo pelotão e a história segue dali, e apesar de não ser uma continuação e ter impactos epicos para a história como um todo ela é muito envolvente.
    Normalmente eu não gosto quando vc percorre a história de varios personagens, mas aqui senti que deu muito certo.
    O fim não é impactante nem fantastico igual aos demais, mas vale muito a pena ser jogado.

    ---== Gameplay ==--
    Apesar de ser a mesma base do 3, pra mim, houve uma evolução na gameplay.
    O fato de não ter o flood ja é uma evolução (tenho agonia daqueles bichos pequenos), mas houve uma integração maior do cenario com a gunplay.
    Eu me diverti mais nesse do que no 3 e acredito que seja graças a essa integração melhor. Eu realmente me sentia limpando uma area e existia o sentimento de avanço, que ja senti no 3mas que no ODST foi ainda maior.

    ---== Resumo ==--
    Apesar do fim dessa história não ter sido surpreendente tem um desenrolar legal, a gameplay é muito divertida e para mim mais fluida. Recomendo a todos!    … Full Review »
