A change in style November 16, 2009 Nathaniel S. Harrison (Waterloo, IL USA) I personally liked this soundtrack. The music didn't have the same theme played over and over again for once and had a lot of different kind of sounds that make this soundtrack epic. If you enjoyed ODST you should like this cd too.
ODST style November 12, 2009 David E. Campbell II 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
An interesting change from the "usual" style that we have come to expect from Bungie on the Halo franchise. Martin O"Donnel is correct; the feel of the music needed to be different. This wasn't about the Master Chief; it is about what the troopers encountered on New Mombasa after that massive Slipspace jump. The tone of the soundtrack is set by the fact that the city is literally left in ruins and that there are extremely high civilian causualties. To make matters worse; the troopers are forced to deal these issues and face the fact that the city is also being completely over-run with Covenent forces; leaving them greatly outnumbered. The music presents the listener with a dull sense of despair and almost no hope for victory. However, through the use of a lone saxaphone, our characters begin to gather thier momentum; regroup as best they can and face these dangers head-on. Throughout the soundtrack the tempo changes to alert the listener that things are happening and the tide is slowly turning to our characters favor. The fact that a mission still remains in effect is also on the listeners minds as well.
For those of you that are iterested, the soundtrack is definitely worth listing to. If your not interested, simply don't spend the money nor waste time posting insults about how bad you think the soundtrack is.
Criticism is important; however, rear-ended opinions are not a valued form of conversation, simlpy because people know what you are talking out of.
ODST SOUNDTRACK REVIEW November 9, 2009 Zaamien P. Tallis (Pert - Western Australia) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Having played all the Halo games and purchasing all the Soundtracks, it was great to hear something very different.
Gone is the 'Michael Flatley' River Dance Halo Theme, which drove me bonkers. Every time i heard that theme, i was waiting for all the characters on screen to start dancing. ODST brings more electric sounds and an ambient atmosphere to the score. Nice solid tunes, creating a lonely passive feel to the levels. Each character has a theme, each place amongst the city had a reflective passage of music so you knew where you were.
In all, a great addtion to the Halo World. Great to have something different and no more scary dreams of 'River Dance' while playing Halo.
A New direction November 5, 2009 C. Healy (Golden, CO) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Marty definatley went in a new direction for this soundtrack. Many of the themes from the first Halo soundtracks (such as the monks) are missing. But different isn't necessarily bad, this is some of his best work.
Good but not iconic November 2, 2009 Gerrit H. Dalman (Oklahoma) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Halo 3: ODST delivers in-game, but isn't as good a stand-alone album as its predecessors. Where as most of the track on the Halo 3 OST stand up to countless hours of repetition, stripped of the dark atmosphere of New Mombasa, few of the ODST numbers hold up on their own. They are still masterful pieces, they're just a lot harder to queue up and enjoy. You have to already be in a mood.
