Halo: Reach (Potential Spoilers)

by Evangel Tue Aug 24, 2010 11:24 am

In 2552, six brave Spartans gave everything to deliver hope to all of humanity. Join me and be a part of the Monument built in their honor.

So, Halo: Reach is coming out in... about 3 weeks. Who else is as excited for it as I am? I'm loving the current viral advertisement campaign going on on the aforementioned site. It's so imaginative.

Gonna preorder.

Then I'm gonna blow my mind on Forge.

by Evangel Tue Aug 24, 2010 11:33 am

Today's my birthday so I'm going to see if my mom is going to preorder it for me. I gave her options with all three versions (Standard, Limited, and Legendary) but all I'd want for is just the standard edition.

First thing I'm gonna do is play with my Spartan's look a little, play some Campaign then head into Forge. Not sure if I'll have Gold back by then.

by Felix Tue Aug 24, 2010 3:51 pm

I'd rather nab some RE games 1st, or half-life.

by Gast Tue Aug 24, 2010 5:22 pm

This game will rock!
Can't wait to play it and now you can really make everything in forge! :D

I dislike Halo. T'is boring. I'm not a Sci-Fi person.

by Peregrine Tue Aug 24, 2010 7:16 pm

They say Reach will be just as good as Combat Evolved. I sure hope they're right. I've yet to play a game as intense as the original Halo.

by Evangel Tue Aug 24, 2010 11:51 pm

From what I've seen, it's a lot more intense and darker than Halo 3, I haven't actually played C.E., but from the looks of the environment from each game, they are both have pretty huge levels/ maps. Plus, the friendly A.I. is a lot more intelligent this time around, you know what that, means, right? Reliable A.I. driving! :D

P.S. If you dislike the game, then why bother posting in the topic? Just saying.

Boring? Shush you. Go back to your Mario games then. :3
Can't wait to play Reach. Bungie loves surpassing my expectations.

The Halo series is great. The games have never gotten old for me. I can't wait for Reach to come out. ~_~

by SirValor Wed Aug 25, 2010 2:27 am

Since I don't have a 360 (I only have Halo 2...). I'm gonna have to wait for it. ;-;

by **Erik** Wed Aug 25, 2010 4:29 am

I just hope Reach is better than ODST, which imo, was garbage. I remember the first Halo, such an awesome game. The beta was really fun though, so I think I'll like Reach a lot.

by Guest Wed Aug 25, 2010 4:43 am

ODST is indeed garbage. I don't mind though, the expanded multiplayer is a decent plus, IMO.

by rydrew1 Wed Aug 25, 2010 6:12 am

Im going to preorder it at gamestop tomorrow

Ye been a fanboy since CE :D

by Evangel Wed Aug 25, 2010 11:50 am

I don't get why people think ODST was "garbage". The whole "it was overpriced for a expansion" argument is invalid since the campaign varies on how long you actually take to play through it. It took me 12 hours to play through the campaign on Normal the first time, solo. And the Firefight mode kept me up for hours into the morning (albeit, trying to get the achievement for Recon). Plus, the MP Disc provided me with a bunch new maps. :)

Well, today came and went and all I know I'm getting for my birthday is my Gold subscription back, for how long, I do not know. We're having the actual celebration this weekend with family. But, I am pretty confident that I'll be getting Reach.

If I don't, I will NOT be one happy 19-year old gamer.

by **Flaw of Insanity** Wed Aug 25, 2010 12:25 pm

I so want to buy Reach. Problem is, I have about $24. It's $10 minimum to preorder. And the special edition (which I plan to get, mwa haha) Is $130. I earn $100 every month, and my pay day is the day after Reach comes out. So unless I convince my parents for a bit of extra cash, I may just have to go normal.

I am also going to a show this Friday, where there will be Merch. :C

I've also got to preorder Hardened COD: Black Ops for those Nazi Zombie maps.

Fml. Sucks to be a gamer.

by Evangel Wed Aug 25, 2010 1:23 pm

Lol, Flawsie.

Black Ops looks good, but I'm placing priority in Halo: Reach right now. I'll probably ask for Black Ops when Christmas comes around.

I could go for just the Standard edition, the Limited edition would be a bonus, and the Legendary would be a HUGE bonus. Just as long as I get the game, I'll be happy.

I haven't got any odd jobs this year to get stuff. Usually I'll have some family needing some help, like my grandma, who would pay me for doing stuff. Last year I got about $150 from helping out at my grandma's for a family picnic, but not this year. The year before that, we where working on my grandma's roof and some other stuff and earn a whopping $600! I used that money to put towards the laptop I'm on right now. :)

If I was getting paid for babysitting my sister's kids and her crippled self, I'm sure I'd have Legendary pre-ordered months ago.

But alas, no such luck. Heck, if I had a job I would have gotten it but I wasn't to eager to work at the local McDonald's straight out of high school and did nothing for a year until my sister got in her car accident, now I really don't have a choice in the matter.

by Felix Wed Aug 25, 2010 2:21 pm

I have to save my money for when I'm on holidays for ages next year, need like.. $700 by December. *sadface*

by rydrew1 Fri Aug 27, 2010 5:43 am

Eh I just pre ordered the limited edition. I would have loved to get the legendary but its just way too expensive. I will never get a game that is priced over 100 euro... unless you get like a laser gun

by Xusha Fri Aug 27, 2010 8:04 am

Halo has never been my cup of tea. Halo and Halo 2 were okay, but I found 3 horrible. Firefight was the only good thing about ODST, and this game claims to be the final in the series, which I for one find good. I don't want this series to have as many games as Final Fantasy. Sure, the new ones are cool for younger people, but trust me... It gets old. Offtopic aside, I expect a decent game here. You aren't the lone chief that takes down thousands of people, and it (seems) that the co-op will make everyone a different person, which is the only thing I think Halo 3 got right.

As for buying it, I'm thinking no. I'll try the demo, and then make my final decision, but I'm not expecting all so much from it.

by Evangel Fri Aug 27, 2010 8:09 am

Reach is the last Halo game from Bungie, but since the IP is owned by Microsoft, they are giving the developing rights to Bungie's sister company, 343 Industries. They say that they'll contninue where Halo 3 left off. What that means is unknown, another game, animated series, movie, whatever.

There is no demo, by the way, there was a multiplayer beta in May, but that's it.

by Xusha Fri Aug 27, 2010 8:16 am

Are you not familiar with the concept of the game demo being released a week before the game itself? This is a very common trend for 360 games. I have no interest in a beta, as it is but a beta. I'm going to wait to play the real thing, and not a multiplayer event full of British 10-year-olds that complain when they are killed, but talk a lot of crap when they win. No, I do not like the online community of Halo.

by Evangel Mon Aug 30, 2010 6:47 am

What I'm trying to say is that Bungie/ Microsoft do not plan on releasing a demo, since they already did a MP beta.

So I found out this morning that my madre is getting the standard version of "Halo: Reach" for my birthday. She tried to pull a "I'll get it for you on the 15th" but I countered with a "It'll be completely sold out by then, that's why I said to pre-order."Knowing her, there's an 80% chance she'll eff it all up and I won't be able to get it until Christmas.

Even with that knowledge, I can't help but still feel disappointed for some reason. I suppose it was the delusion that she could have actually got the Legendary package for me that ended up making me disappointed for only getting the Standard version... I really wanted that journal...

by Peregrine Mon Aug 30, 2010 7:15 am

Journal? What would you do with a journal? Read it? Get your priorities straight, man. There's aliens that need killing.

by Evangel Mon Aug 30, 2010 7:42 am

I can organize my priorities to include many things, Pere.
