Subject: Reach's control and feel.

I know that the controls behind halo work very well and is what established Combat Evolved.

Yet I would love to see an attempt at something new. It would be fairly difficult and risky to try a revolutionary change in game play mechanics. (Not including Natal, but could be added to things such as sparring sessions between Spartans, not looking for major game play by it)

I'm not sure how Reach will play out, but I hope the story is thick, and game play differs to give it a much more enjoyable and riveting experience. Anybody want the same Halo 3 feel? Or something new, not something totally stealth related, but give and take a lot of features.

I'd like to see a deep story. As for gameplay, why mess with an already good thing.

The controls behind Halo: CE were revolutionary for the gaming industry with the layout being one joystick to control movement and one to control direction. It was never done before with a video game and a little weird at first for all players but eventually people realized it totally made sense and pretty much every FPS followed suit afterwards. I'd be skeptical if I were to be told there is a better way.

As for the mechanics of the game, I love FPS's and a good story. It's what made Halo do it for me over the years. I welcome new idea's but as for Halo: Reach, I kind of hope it doesn't deviate from the absolute basic formula that has made this series great.

I can't think of a half-decent modification of gameplay that wouldn't make it CoD or GoW.
