Microsoft explains 'Halo 3: ODST' name change

Microsoft Game Studios product manager Ryan Crosby told GamePlayer that the change helps showcase the new stars of the action, the Orbital Drop Shock Troopers. Not familiar with the elite unit? The ODSTs are to John McClane as Master Chief is to Superman ... and if you still don't get it, read a book or something.
Correction: Ryan Crosby is an employee of Microsoft Game Studios, not Bungie.

"Herp derp!"
The article is not about the name change it self, but why it was changed.
Move along or actually read the article next time.

Isn't "this isn't news" comments an offense that brings the ban hammer?
