Get Your Very Own Xbox 360 Halo 3 ODST

By Crystal Jennings

Halo 3: ODST is the newest offering introduced by the joint efforts of the partnership between the publisher, Microsoft, and the developer, Bungie. After being released last September 29, 2009, people are now talking about Halo 3: ODST and stocks of Halo 3: ODST consoles are now available in video game stores.

This video game generally and primarily revolves around a first person shooting scenario. The protagonist is affiliated with the United Nations Space Command (UNSC). The UNSC is an organization known for its elite human soldier members.

The climax in the game takes place during an attack of an alliance of alien races to the Earth right after a Covenant took place. The area of New Mombasa served as the official specific target. Since they had to handle different quests, the members of the team got separated from one another. Thus, the player has to explore the area and look for his or her missing teammates.

The similarity between the Halo 3: ODST and other previous Halo versions may no longer be invisible to most people. There is a common misconception that the Master Chief plays the role of a lead character in the Halo 3: ODST and other Halo versions that have been already released earlier. However, for Halo 3: ODST, a lone soldier of the United Nations Space Command plays the role of the lead character. The UNSC lone soldier is also known as the Rookie.

Quick jumps and fast movement are advanced skills endowed by the Master Chief. Unfortunately, the Rookie does not possess these advanced skills. The energy shield that absorbs damages, considered as an asset weapon of the Master Chief, is substituted with a stamina mechanic for the Rookie.

The player needs to regain strength after incurring damages by getting adequate rest. A permanent harmful effect on the health may be caused if the damage exceeds the stamina threshold. The health of the player can be restored by utilizing medpacks that can be found in different locations all over the area. Thus, the player must look for these medpacks for health reasons.

Now, it's time to use your hands, make the most out of your experience and play with the Halo 3: ODST! Enjoy and have fun! - 29852
