Xbox 360 | Halo 3: ODST Updated Hands-On - Multiplayer and FirefightWe check out the new Halo 3 multiplayer maps exclusive to ODST owners and then hunker down against waves of the Covenant in a new Firefight map. As Microsoft and Bungie release more information on Halo 3: ODST, it’s become clear that this upcoming shooter is neither sequel nor expansion. Rather, it’s a combination of new and familiar that doesn’t fit very neatly into either definition. You’ll find a new cooperative mode called Firefight and a full-fledged single-player campaign that dives into unexplored territory from Halo 3’s storyline, but the competitive multiplayer component is both identical to and compatible with its predecessor Halo 3. However, one major piece that pushes ODST deeper into ’all-new’ territory is the inclusion of three exclusive multiplayer maps that regular old Halo 3 players won’t be able to download any time soon. We traveled to Bungie this week to get a hands-on run through all three of these maps, plus a quick look at a brand-new setting in the Firefight mode.
