What do you guys think about Halo 3: Recon (now renamed to Halo 3: ODST)

This game takes place DURING the events of Halo 2.. At the time right after the Masterchief leaves Earth (following the covenant that made a slipspace jump while too close to Mombassa).
It uses the Halo 3 Engine, and includes multiplayer maps that it can share with Halo 3.
Personally, I think it looks really good. There's tons more info on Bungie.net if you wanted to learn more about it.
My only concern is that the game may feel different in-terms of not being a spartan, and therefore being able to jump that high, and stuff like that. Also there's likely no duel wielding, but there IS a modified Battlerifle that the ODST uses.
What do you guys think about it though?

I think the name change is good because the game had nothing to do with recon and was basically all about the Odst (orbital drop shock trooper)

Well I'm someone who completely loves the entire Halo universe. I'm completely hooked on Halo Wars at the moment.
So I'm really looking forward to ODST. More of the familiar Halo 3 gameplay, but with a twist. It's be strange playing through unshielded and stuff without the protection of trusty Mjolnir armor.
What's also cool, is that with the release of ODST, the final map pack will come out and I can finally complete all the achievements in Halo 3.
