YOU'RE STILL ALIVE?!?

Do you think Halo Reach will out sell Halo 3? I'm not sure if it will because people already know how it ends anyway...

Well in the first couple of weeks yes. Halo 3 has attracted more fans including myself and about nearly everyone else on my friends list.

I know, thats why I'm getting it and so are a lot of other people. But, some people don't feel like spending $60.

We know what happens to reach. We have no idea what the ending of reach has in store for us.

  • 06.27.2009 11:35 PM PDT

I think it will.

Maybe. ONLY if it maintains the same formula. If it maintains the style and game play than it will definately out sell Halo 3. It it goes to far from the things that made Halo 1-3 great, then it wont.

Keys to out selling Halo 3 would be to keep the same formula while making improvements. Not doing anything drastic in changes

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

Hard to say, but I kinda doubt it. If it's too similar to Halo 3 then it probably won't.

  • 06.27.2009 11:51 PM PDT

waz up

if the beta is epicly awsome gameplay

Wrong. Why would you think that? If they keep the trend of gameplay from the previous Halo games, it's sure to be a hit. Keep the game play similar while making improvements. If they stray too far from the formula that fans obviously loved, it will not do as well. If the gameplay is completely different they are taking a huge risk. There are reasons so many people loved Halo. The gameplay and style were huge reasons.

Either way, to ask this question when we have NOTHING to go off of is silly. It will be a long time until we get information that can be used to start really judging this game. I dont think Bungie will give out any significant info until next year.

The thing is though that Halo 3 is overall much more slower paced than the previous two Halo games and alot of the gameplay elements are determined with random outcomes. Let alone the campaign mode had no real story to it.

If Bungie is to make Halo: Reach a success they have to be more careful on which fans they listen to.

I've already read all of the halo books today you stupid nerd. Plus Halo:Fall of reach twice.

We don't know if the story is going to be the same as the book so just shut up.

  • 06.28.2009 12:03 AM PDT

I think since Halo 3 has come to the point where everyone and anyone has bought it and played it at some point, Halo:Reach will sell well just because it is Halo.

Because of this, the exciting part is we may finally see a revert to Halo:CE-esque gameplay that wouldn't have brought in the masses if it Halo was still trying to establish itself.

I think you need to learn to read. Where did I even mention any of the novels?

I think you need to learn how to read.
What on earth made you think I was talking to you?
I was responding to the OPs claim that we know the ending.

Dog carcass in alley this morning, tire tread on burst stomach. This city is afraid of me. I have seen it's true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout "Save us!"...

...and I'll look down, and whisper "no."

I believe that Halo 2 has more sales then Halo 3 but Halo 3 has the record for most pre-ordered game.

And, I wouldn't be surprised if Halo: Reach did shatter Halo 3 in pre-order sales.
