  1. $4.99 is a great deal for Halo 3: ODST. While there isn’t any Firefight (which is a damn shame…future update maybe? And 343i should add matchmaking to it if they do add Firefight), the campaign is definitely worth at least $5.

    I have seen some people who are angry that they don’t get the game for free though. They apparently played Halo: The Master Chief Collection after the cut-off date for whatever reason (with a lot of arguments saying it was a Christmas present). They are saying that the game still did not work properly after December 19 so they are entitled to receive Halo 3: ODST for free. What do you think?

    • I agree. The game wasn’t really in working order for the first 4 months at least.
