Brian Crecente from Kotaku writes: When Halo 3 hit in the fall of 2007 there were celebrations, sick days and sales records broken. Two years later, when Halo sequel ODST made it into stores it couldn’t match its predecessor’s first day sales in two weeks.

So I asked the Bungie folks, is Halo Reach going to be more like a Halo 3 or a Halo ODST?

Before answering Brian Jarrard, Bungie’s community director, gave me his take on why ODST wasn’t the overwhelming success Halo 3 was.

"I felt ODST was more of niche game, it was a little bit of an experiment," Jarrard said. "We didn’t have to stay tried and true to the Halo formula."
