Just had a great experience playing Halo 3:ODST at the Mobile GameStop Tour in Owings Mills, MD.  The line wasn’t that bad getting in and with a team of four we had our choice of three maps and difficulty (minus Heroic).  Well it was my choice and we had just watched the ending of the previous teams run on Security Zone, so I choose the night version of Crater.  Why, well I wanted to try out the VISR vision mode.  VISR highlights enemies in red, friendlies in green, and usable weapons are easier to see on the map. 

It was truly a fantastic time as the Covenant being dropped in all around us and flying in also.  I tried out as many weapons as I could find and finally near the end found the gravity hammer.  You know you can never get tied of the hammer and I found a pile of Covenant flooding out and quickly ran to see what damage I could do.  I took out most of them but, alas it was only me that side of the map and I succumbed to the remaining two. 

You still have until 8 PM at Owings Mills and one more chance to play Halo 3:ODST at the Mobile GameStop Tour before the official drop date.  North Babylon, NY is the last stop on the 19th.  So check it out and climb aboard the Halo 3:ODST Transport Truck.
