This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

Im sure all you veteran Halo players were excited as hell when you saw the Halo 2 E3 Demo right? I was, i was just as happy as you guys. For those of you who havent, watch:

Halo 2 E3 Demo Audience Reactions

Now i dont remember seeing with Halo 3 or ODST, people screaming this much with the trailers, maybe at the midnight releases yeah, but not at the trailer. This vid showed the world how Bungie could improve on a game that had already revolutionized the world of FPS, the level was incredible and the final cutscene, memorable. The music gave it that epic feel, especially at the end.

Bungie should look at this cut out level, and take parts from it to include in Reach, as the part of The Covenant Gun Emplacement that's taken out by Longswords (should be Shortswords but thats Halo Wars), Phantoms chasing you on the Warthog and leaving ground troops as you go and droping them on you're vehicle, and the end cutscene where you think you're finnally safe, but then Elites hot-drop on you're position and you have to deal with them. All this gave to Halo 2 a better feeling of the war that was going on. Also all the explosions going on in the air and passing plasma had a more open war feeling. Its a huge shame Bungie did not include this level in Halo2, atleast i hope they remake it for Reach, for downloadable content.

All i hope is that Bungie takes a look at this, and use some of these elements in Reach to make it that game that made people cheer, or be left in awe. Bungie can still do this with there last game, and i hope they leave us all very impressed with there new game.
