Played it, beat it.
Overall?
A very.. lonely game in comparison to the rest of the Halo franchise.
Admittedly this changes towards the end, but man. A bit sad, not grim, but very different in feeling.
Enjoyable, though. Music and lighting changes were really really really well done.
The one thing I didn't like so much? As the game progressed I really did start to like the pair of new guns Bungie saw fit to give you in ODST, but there's no ammo for the things.
There's this map, an open world map where you can roam to the heart's content, find bits of story and whatnot, and I was evidently unlocking supply caches.. that I never once stumbled upon even after browsing the game's map for a while.
And ammo for the nice, and even touted on the game's cover art, gun is impossible to find past the occasional (that is, I think, twice in my first playthrough) corpse.
The music was a neat change. No moving choir pieces, but there was a few lines of that Gaelic-y business from the live action trailer.
Other news-
High School is going well, with straight As in all my classes.
Homecoming in approximately one week, on the 3rd of October. I had a date for a while, before it became clear that the band and color guard weren't going to be able to make it. At all.
Birthday's coming up.
I have homework to do.
