Microsoft 360, Halo 3: ODST

RELEASE DATE: 09/22/2009

Return to familiar ground with this latest addition to the Halo series. Set before the events of Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST puts you in the suit of an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper for the first time. You'll drop into the ruined city of New Mombasa with your fellow Helljumpers, looking for clues behind the Covenant's catastrophic attack on the city. With new modes, new characters, and the return of Halo's acclaimed multiplayer mode with a total of 24 maps, you'll be eager to sign up for this mission.

• Through A Helljumper's Eyes - See the world through the eyes of an ODST. With the advanced armor, reflexes and strength of Master Chief, you'll be forced to act more cautiously and embrace stealth like never before.
• Explore An Open World - After the first beacon, you decide where you -- and the story -- go. Take on the huge open world environment in the Halo series' first free-roaming adventure.
• Multiplayer Mode - Everything you love about the original, plus a little extra. ODST's multiplayer mode consists of the original 11 Halo 3 maps, the Heroic map pack, the Legendary map pack, the "Cold Storage" map, the Mythic map pack and three new maps exclusive to ODST.
• Firefight Mode - Take on wave after wave of enemies that get harder with each wave. Take them on by yourself or co-op with up to 4 teammates over Xbox LIVE. How long will you last?
