Well they say the sky's the limit
And to me that's really true
But my friend you have seen nothin
Just wait til I get through...

You know what that means? That means that there is a chance for the amazing, classic, Halo CE action.

Everyone remembers how good Halo 2 was. But we also remember how the integral part of Halo: CE wasn't there anymore.

Perhaps... If Bungie forgoes the ideas that they have to adhere to in sequels, such as more advanced tech, then we could have that good old feeling back.

I know, it won't be the same, ever. There were many imbalances with Halo: CE. But Bungie being the awesome developer they are, I am sure they could fix and balance all that.

Halo: Reach means:

- Original Mark V Mjolnir Armor

- Assault Rifle

-M6D pistol

-Possibly the Battle Rifle prototype (I like to think of this as the original BR idea during the development of Halo 2, that meaning that when it was scoped it fired in single round bursts

Some of you may think that I am trying to harken back to days long past. Well, in a way, I am. Because Halo: CE was an amazing experience, especially when you compare it to other games at the time. I understand that Halo: Reach most likely will not play like the original Halo. But that doesn't matter. What matters to me more is the nostalgic feel. If it doesn't exactly play like the original, at least it reminds you enough of it so that you don't care.

This thread is open for all comments and ideas. Feel free to state your opinions.

With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

To hell with the pistol. 500 years into the future or not, a pistol that is that accurate and that powerful is not likely to be physically possible. And though realism doesn't have to be an integral part of the game, I still like it when there's at least some semblance of realism if you care to look for it.

I just hope that the fun mix of fighting elites is back in action. I also hope they're tougher and smarter than ever before, and hopefully your array of weapons will be fresh and powerful enough to save the day.

That's pretty good for 2 hours of music without explosions and people yelling. I don't care if you steal it, but God does...

the Halo CE pistol was awesome because Bungie didn't balance it well. They won't make the same mistake again. Everybody loved the HCE pistol because it was a god weapon. You can't balance a god weapon.
