Erm, I know I must be dumb or something, but is looking at some forum threads made me ask myself: Is Halo 3 Reach a Halo 3 expansion pack, or what... please give clear answers, cause i'm sort of confused as to what a Beta is, for example. Cheers.

All we really know is that Halo: Reach is an FPS game scheduled to come out Q4 of 2010. The beta will be available sometime between now and the game's release for anyone with a Halo 3: ODST campaign disc.

Oh, so if you have ODST then you can download the Beta, (which is a demo?) from Xbox Live?

Thus he came alone to Angband's gates, and he sounded his horn, and smote once more upon the brazen doors, and challenged Morgoth to come forth in single combat. And Morgoth came.

Yea you cant play the beta (as of now) without a Halo ODST disc... so you have from now until the beta is released to get a disc... and another people dont seem to understand is this..

Halo Reach is a prequel to the Halo trilogy, showing what happened during the battle of Reach before Halo CE

Sorry for the 'nooby' questions but does prequel mean it was before the game, and what is CE?

  • 10.18.2009 12:58 AM PDT

Prequel meaning the game takes place before the other games.

CE=Combat Evolved which was the subtitle of the first Halo game.

It's a full game. It revolves around the colony "Reach". It's a prequel. If I had my guess, it follows the events of "Fall of Reach", at least to some extent.
