I know this came after Halo 3, but I was told I had to play this BEFORE Halo 3 for story's sake. And it was worth it, after the cliffhanger ending of 2.

I really enjoyed how all the plot threads converged into one, following parallel to each other while you could play into them differently. It's not a new thing, by far, but it's done exceedingly well in ODST.

I'd like to give massive props for the music. Between the exciting action tracks during combat, to the calm, atmospheric tunes that play when you're exploring the empty streets of New Mombasa in the rainy night. It's perfect.

By the end of it, I was sad that the game was ending but glad that I played it, and I see myself playing ODST again very, very soon.
