Halo 3: ODST ( New upcoming 2009 video game )

A headsup to all HALO fans out there, on the upcoming scheduled for fall of 2009 release, Halo 3 ODST.

The superintendent

======================

"Although the gameplay of Halo 3: ODST bears a strong resemblance to previous Halo games, the player does not assume the role of Master Chief as in the main Halo trilogy, but rather a lone UNSC soldier in the city of New Mombasa, Kenya.

Since the ODST does not possess Master Chief's superhuman abilities and armor, he is more vulnerable to weapons fire, thus forcing the player to act more cautiously. While the game is not focused on stealth gameplay, some elements of stealth will be incorporated. It will also include open world gameplay.

The main objective of ODST is to lead the soldier through the ruins of Mombasa and discover what happened to his missing teammates. After finding a piece of evidence left behind—a sniper rifle hanging on a lampost, for example—a flashback is triggered and the player assumes the role of the missing soldier.." - wikipedia.org

===============

The main character of the game is an unnamed member of the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers (ODST for short, also known as Helljumpers) referred to as The "Rookie".

ODSTs often deploy in small, one-man Human Entry Vehicles (HEVs), launched from spaceships in the upper atmosphere. During the game, The "Rookie" is separated from his four teammates (Romeo, Dutch, Buck, and Mickey) and must find out what happens to them with the guidance of a city maintenance AI known as the Superintendent
