My first experience with Halo was when I was 17, watching my boyfriend play this “AWESOME NEW GAME[!!!]” on his new Xbox that he had waited inline all night at Walmart to get.
Sure, the game was cool to watch, but at that time, I was more interested in impressing the boy with my ability to hang-out on the couch and watch him and his friends play hours and hours and hours of the game.
Occasionally, I would manage to wrench the controller from his sweaty, pale hands and get a couple of shots in. But, for the most part, my job …read more

The much-anticipated Halo 3: ODST will be released tomorrow and I’m sure there will be a lot of people waiting in line to buy it.  The events in this stand-alone game take place before the story told in Halo 3.
Nathan Fillion, who sci-fi geeks (like me) might know from shows like Serenity and Castle, provides the voice for the main character Sgt. Buck.  Gamers will see everything from Buck’s perspective as he and his team search for clues about what happened to their squad.

The graphics seem really crisp and I think the four-player “Firefight” mode looks awesome since you can …read more

Halo 3: ODST comes out this fall and I know a lot of people are really looking forward to it.  I’ve got some Halo toys of my own so I’m thinking that other fans of the games might be interested in the fact that some remote control vehicles, inspired by ODST, have hit the market.
R/C vehicle producer, NKOK, has announced their fleet which includes faithful representations of the M12 Warthog LRV, M274 Mongoose ULATV, and Hornet AAV.  From the images that I was sent, I can tell you that these collectibles look pretty awesome!
The Halo R/C Vehicles will be available …read more

Like Jeanne said, Halo 3: ODST {Orbital Drop Shock Trooper} is coming out toward the end of September and with it, you’ll get three new maps: Heretic, Citadel and Longshore.
Citadel is all about close combat since the map is small and cramped and if you suck at communication with your team then you might be best served to avoid the map.
Heretic looks like Midship from Halo 2 so if you played the map in the previous game then you should be right back in your comfort zone.
Longshore is a horse of a map with tons of industrial buildings, cat walks …read more

Looking forward to the release of Halo 3: ODST on September 22, 2009?  Here’s your chance to secure your copy by pre-ordering!  The title is available exclusively for the Xbox 360 and was formerly known as Halo 3: Recon, just in case you are confused.

If you don’t have the prior Halo games, don’t worry – this is a standalone expansion of the series.  The game takes place before the events of Halo 3 with players will take on the role of UNSC soldiers/Orbital Drop Shock Troopers (ODST).  People familiar with Halo 3 will enjoy it since it offers a different …read more

Maybe you knew, maybe you didn’t but there’s a new Halo game coming out in September and you should know about it if you’re a Halo fan boy.
