Bungie drops Halo 3: ODST concept art

Many companies have adjourned their regularly scheduled workdays until after the new year so they can face down 2009 with well-rested resolve. Thankfully, Bungie is not one of these companies -- they recently stuffed the proverbial stockings of numerous Halo fans with a gaggle of new concept art for their upcoming sans-Spartan shooter, Halo 3: ODST. Check out all 22 images in the gallery below -- you can get your first look at the silenced SMG, as well as some of the armor your fellow shock troops will be sporting, and as a special bonus, a truly breathtaking watercolor depiction of post-mortem teabagging.

I loved them all too when I played through them. Halo 1 blew my mind though. Halo 2 was insane multiplayer, but I didn't have Live so I couldn't take full advantage. Halo 3 was very well balanced between campaign and multiplayer. There are some things about all of them I really dislike like the "talking in your head" in Halo 3 that slows you down every time they talk. But, I don't think there are many games that I liked everything 100%. Maybe Super Mario Bros 3. :)

The one thing i want to know is will we be able to use the character model with spartans and elites in multiplayer giving a bit more choice

Yes, but you might not have shields and won't be able to jump over anything but small rocks. I do think it would be cool if they introduced a game-type with 3 teams or something with a whole bunch of ODST against a spartan or something, similar to MGO but in a game people actually want to play*.

*Note that I'm talking about the actual functionality of the online game system, not the gameplay itself. Though Konami could've fixed its problems by now, I don't know.
