Now, i am deciding between to very good game..
First of there is ODST which is told to be legendery and the best new halo game (Ye, like a believe that!) But it has no Online feature ecept firefight and that is only with friends..But the story is ment to be good and Firefight is ment to have some good enjoyment out of it..

Now the second game is World of Warcraft: Batlle chest Now two problems come to Mind when i think about this game

1- Vista: Now my computer can handle world of warcraft i know it can.. But Vista Normally doubles the amount of memory and RAM needed to run a game...

2-Internet: Last time i bought this game.. i was using "SKY" and one of the problme was the little bar that checks you connectivity went up to a thousand+ but one thing that bugged me was that i wasn't lagging but everyone else was..to be honest it made no sense to me...

Could someone help me here.. i can only choose one and I don't want to make the wrong choice?

I say both but if I had to choose one I guess it would be WoW Battle Chest. It will keep you busy and entertained.

ODST was a lot better than I thought it was going to be, also along with fire fight and the campaign in comes with the matchmaking from Halo 3 with 3 new maps

The battle chest is a brilliant deal, and a good game, I got it recently. I've heard good things about ODST though, and you're sort of wrong, it includes Halo 3's multiplayer with all the DLC.

For getting your money's worth, WoW might be the better choice if you'll play it a ton. Otherwise I would probably advocate patience. Just wait for the price to go down on ODST then buy it and WoW if you really want to.

ODST looks like a average game you play for a few days and then shelf it - Warcraft is virtually endless. Id get warcraft if your PC is of average power.

and as for running vista affecting gameplay I cant really comment because I ran XP for years then only got vista on my powerful gaming PC. But I guess Warcraft is mostly affected by your graghics card and internet speed.

Well, I don't see the point in the mutliplayer maps i have bought them all and the other 3 will be on the xbox live MarketPlace soon..

But if i could solve the Lag issue with World of Warcraft.. then i would be good is there a way i could test it would run propally?

EDIT:Hang on just Ran a test and the ping is:434 So would it run propally?

Get ODST. Don't bother with the battle chest - buy them seperately.
Why? You get two walkthroughs with Battle chest?

Ok, Now i am getting around about 80-120ms Also i am gona go with the WOW version and maybe... get ODST for christmas (Maybe not..Assassin's creed 2 looks pretty awsome)

No that's defiantly you lagging. Your computer knows where you are, just not where everyone else is as your internet connection isn't coming in fast enough, so it can move you around and know your there, but not where everything else is.

Usually if everyone else is lagging, it's either the servers fault (not going to be the case in WoW) or you.

*feels like being different* Don't get ODST unless you want the map packs really badly. It's basically just a 6 hour expansion pack with no matchmaking, IMO.

The mods don't like it when I say my opinion on WoW but suffice to say I disapprove of it. I enjoyed Halo 3 ODST and it comes with a disc containing halo 3s multiplayer so your complaint is sort of dealt with.

It's an odd question seeming as they are both totally different animals. WoW will probably offer more game time, just be aware of what you are getting into though. Not to mention the huge amount of space in the 38 or so discs it takes to install it in it's latest form.
