The firefight game mode is pretty cool too - players can play online or on split screen and must survive waves of enemies that increase in difficulty. Multiplayer is solid in ODST too, it contains 21 maps used in Halo 3 as well as three additional ones. Not being a supersoldier actually helps ODST stand out.
It gives your character a more vulnerable feel and gives the player a different perspective of the fight against the Covenant. But rather than being a downside, it’s exactly what makes ODST so great. In the campaign, you play as The Rookie, a regular human who can't jump as high, move as fast or take as much damage as Master Chief is able to. There's very little wrong with "Halo 3: ODST" - it’s an amazing game that offers a different experience to the other Halo games. ODST has some die-hard fans who insist it’s among the best Halo has to offer. Now, there was always going to be some controversy when discussing the top Halo games of all time, but this is probably the most controversial placing on our list. That being said, it's shortcomings didn't stop it being enjoyable and it isn't a bad game, it's just that there are quite a few better Halo games out there.
#Halo 7 release date series
This is the first main series Halo on Xbox One and it had so much potential but ended up feeling a bit confused and perhaps tried a bit too hard in places. On top of all this, Halo finally got iron sights, although this change ended up dividing the fanbase massively. Then there's the characters… Master Chief isn't the only protagonist as players get to play with a Spartan called Locke and Cortana acts like the bad guy for a while but then isn't really. The campaign is definitely more enjoyable when you play it with friends rather than on your own, primarily because most of the bosses can only be attacked from behind so you need multiple players to flank them. With that being said, it does have some shortcomings. 8) Halo 5: Guardiansĭespite what you're about to read - "Halo 5: Guardians" isn't actually a bad game. It also introduced the Banished, who are the main villains in Halo Infinite, so we have that to thank it for too. Like we said at the top of this article, there aren't any bad games in this franchise and this certainly isn't a bad game, it's just there are far more enjoyable Halo games out there. Splitting up parts of your army allows players to get into even more alien battles, the main story of the game is surprisingly good and some of the cinematics and cutscenes are just a joy to watch. In the game's defence, it is a real-time strategy game that is comfortable to play on a controller, and it did evolve some features (for the better) from the first game. With that in mind, "Halo Wars 2" picks up from where the first one left off: a decent game which was fun to play for a bit and offered a different way of playing Halo games.
We got a Halo real-time strategy game whether we liked it or not and it was fine, did we need a follow up? Not particularly.
While these games are enjoyable for a bit, they're both fairly forgettable entries into the Halo franchise. The story largely revolves around Covenant factions seeking an artefact and Humans trying to stop that. Halo Spartan Strike takes place firstly during the events of "Halo 2" and then secondly after the events of Halo 4. A splinter group of the Covenant ignores the ceasefire and players play as super soldiers who repel the attacks. Halo: Spartan Assault takes place between the events of "Halo 3" and "Halo 4" and sees a ceasefire between human and alien Elites. Both games are enjoyable twin-stick shooters, but nothing to shout about. The reason we've bunched them together is because they're very similar games and they had just about the same impact on the series as each other, minimal. To say any Halo game is the worst might come across a little harsh as there aren't any bad ones, but "Halo: Spartan Assault" and "Halo: Spartan Strike" take the last place slot in our eyes.
