Subject: Reach preview in EGM!!!!

Plekpedia - The most epic site in the history of ever.

Sorry if this is old. It was on HBO. I fake-fainted (fell on the floor) when I read it.


Thoughts?

My thought is:

:D

The only downside is if the preview is just a re-hash of what we know. Gosh, that would crush my happiness hard.

Unlikely. Bungie needs to announce most the details of the beta, what it will look like, gameplay mechanics, and such before the holidays because that way more holiday shoppers will be inclined to buy ODST to get access to the beta.

It would be the perfect way to release information. The first Halo 3 multiplayer shots came from a magazine if memory serves, am I right?

Good point. Also, remember last year's Gameinformer ODST preview?

If I remember correctly the first pics were scans from a magazine.

That mongoose dodging that laser was so badass.

So yeah. As you can see if you read the weekly update that is up now, the time is still not now, but they have begun vaguely talking about Reach, which is a good sign as the have stopped talking about ODST. Expect more vagueness till November when they will start dropping major hints and then once the magazine comes out we will know much more about the multiplayer mechanics and Bungie will probably announce the beta date.

As we get closer to the beta date, bungie will probably give us diagrams of the maps, talk about features, maybe a vidoc or two, the controls, and then the beta arrives and we will be happy.

Then it goes away and its more waiting for campaign details.

It helps that Halo 3 was also released within a year of it's announcement. Announced at E3 2006 in the summer, came out in the fall of 2007. Reach was announced at E3 2009 in the summer, will come out fall 2010. So they should have simillar information revealing timetables.

Now all I want to know is what day to rush to every store that has magazines. That would help.

I'll wait for pics to appear on the net.


I looked at 1up.com, but surprisingly, I couldn't find anything at all. Not even about the magazine. Then again, I am not familiar with that site, so I may have not looked in the right spots.

This body holding me reminds me of my own mortality.
Embrace this moment. Remember. We are eternal.
All this pain is an illusion.

Wow, I didn't even know EGM stopped publishing back in January...

  • 10.16.2009 4:27 PM PDT

Urgh, I hope the UK gets a magazine with a preview. Perhaps OXM, or X360gamer. I do remember reading that the latter, in the next issue, would have "Details on Halo: Reach", but that could just be telling us about what we already know.

Well, looking at that cover, they are having quite the comeback!

PS: Added a better title to attract more people.

I'm stupid:I can't find anything on Reach on the link...

Naturally now would be the time to remind you that as with ODST we probably won't be allowed to post scans of the magazine on Bungie.net or talk about where to get them. Most of you guys are good people, and its fun to discuss things with you.

Just thought I'd throw that out there :)

Plus most people on the IGN and Gamespot forums will have it there, thats where I went to find the Halo 3 pics when they first came out.

The cover even mentioned Gears 3. I don't know, it's probably just going to give us a sentence of new information.

Obviously mass effect 2 should be the major feature of the magazine, but I'd expect a few pictures and maybe some information about each game, maybe a half a page, page, two pages...
