Halo 3: ODST

Halo 3: ODST is set to take a much more stealthy approach, rather than the rag tag run and gun approach you see most players taking in previous Halo games. The combat also has taken a fairly different approach to Halo 3, in a more tactical fashion.

"The silenced SMG is just one of the tweaks to the Halo 3 sandbox that make ODST a stealthier experience -- one that, at least in the open environment of nighttime New Mombasa, rewards a more measured approach to combat."

"As a non-Spartan, you'll need to be careful about the fights you pick, especially when you're on your own."

"Brutes in ODST are much more interested in self-preservation than they were in Halo 3 which makes for terrific, multi-layered encounters."

"You need to think before you engage -- decide how you want to take apart an encounter before diving in or you'll get into trouble pretty quick, especially on higher difficulty levels."
