The covenant are back, and yet again they simply want to kill you but in Halo 3: ODST you take your place as part of a crack-team of special troopers, known as Orbital Drop Shock Troopers and play through the events leading up to what we all saw, and loved in Halo 3.

If you love video games, you know all about the Halo series and have probably played through the original as well as Halo 2 and Halo 3 titles, but the critically acclaimed developers behind the series, Bungie, are about to bring you a first – a prequal campaign which looks set to stand firmly on it’s own feet as yet another incredible must-own Halo title.

HALO 3: ODST TRAILER

Halo 3: ODST brings back the unrivalled battle gameplay we all associate with Halo together with an enhanced athmospheric sense as for the first time you are able to take full advantage of stealth tactics and we’re talking proper stealth – more commonly known as pitch black darkness.

Time and time again you will find yourself in dark and sometimes eerie locations, but as you will have come to expect from the Halo series, Halo 3: ODST boasts gorgeous graphics from start to finish and framerates don’t struggle for a second even in the heaviest of fire-fights with the covenant.

Halo 3: ODST hits stores on September 22nd 2009 for the XBox 360.
