Developer Bungie retains its streak of awesome video documentaries in their latest dubbed “Terra Icognita.” In the mini-documentary -- the third released for Halo: ODST -- several members of the studio discuss building the game, its music and emotion, the city exploration, a few plot points, its characters, and mention several key departures from the core franchise like the differences between the Rookie and Master Chief.

The video was originally released September 15th, but if you haven’t seen it yet, definitely give a click on the header image. Running over six minutes, this piece of Halo-goodness will prepare you for everything ODST.

Halo: ODST
drops on September 22nd. Look out for our review in the near future.

People can say what they want about Bungie - the fact remains that they have one of the highest quality-control bars in the industry, and while some people may not like their titles, they haven't ever released a game that you could actually define as shit.

Visor Map...lol They should just call it Metroit ODST. Which doesn't sound too bad. Honestly, the game looks great, but I think that the engine looks a bit dated to me (i.e. how to use the recticle to aim w/ the gun vs using the gun to aim) I think going back to health packs is going to be kinda annoying.. that's just my opinion, but I know there are some that like the health pack system in place of the renegerative healing.

"BAM said the lady!" is pretty much what Nathan Fillion has posted on his twitter every day.

I was looking forward to this game before, but that video just amplified those feelings by like 500%. I think the naysayers are going to start changing their minds after they see this.

If you'd actually PAID ATTENTION you'd have seen that you have Regenerative health in ODST, the packs speed things up if you're getting raped.

I'd rather this article be about Borderlands since that's the only game I want to spend money on lately... I guess ODST can have my money too, though, this looks good.
