Subject: I believe I have discovered the release date... (Not a troll post)

Okay, so on gamestop.com, it always says "Pre-order ships (insert release date here)"

examples:

Halo 3: ODST
Pre-order ships 9/22/09

Modern Warfare 2
Pre-order ships 11/10/09


On the Halo: Reach page, it says
Pre-order ships 9/1/10

Either the release date is September 1st, 2010, or they just needed an approximation to put in. I believe the release date is 9/1/2010

Don't bet on it being the exact release date but I will agree that it's close to somthing like that most likely.

Were it so easy.

Everybody already knows about this.

Why do you guys care so much about the release anyways? Its going to be in fall, why do you guys care so much about the release date instead of the game itself.

There are those who said this day would never come. What have they to say now?

I'm not sure about your sources, but its fair odds that Reach will be released in September.

it doese'nt look nextgen , looks good but not nextgen
If by next-gen you mean crappy, dark and colorless, I agree. It doesnt look next-gen at all.

When Bungie confirms a release date, then that will be it. Do not speculate on what the release date will be based on what stores say.

Bungie must have been working on Reach for much longer than we thought if they're aiming for a September 2010 release date.

ODST took a year to build, and they already had an engine and most of the programming legwork done from Halo 3.

I would like to invite you to the most active group there is, Black Water Ops. Boasting over 4000 members this is one of the fastest growing groups and proven to be one of the most active b.net groups. An amazing experience awaits you with weekly game nights, photo contests, and forging contests. This is one decision you won't regret. Welcome to the family!

Reach will probably come out in September, just like Halo 3 and ODST.

Also it would make sense to have worked on it for a long time, I mean that way they can put more ideas into it and fine tune it better.

It is hinted from the various Weekly Updates before Halo 3 even shipped out that they were already working on another project. Sometime before they announced ODST they had mentioned that a group of people in the studios was working on a side project. ODST was this side project meaning that the other project they had been working on was Reach. By the time they release the game, it will have been in development 3 years which is roughly the number of years they spend on their projects.

Halo=The best game series EVER!
Bungie=Bungie's so awesome I have no words
Finished Halo: Reach campaign legendary solo!

but game says 24/9/10, and that is a completely different date from Gamestop's, so I would rather wait till Bungie confirms a release date.

They started working on it before they started work on ODST. The core team was doing programing and other things i believe, it was on a show about ODST i believe.

My problems [with Reach] are basically just full parties, mlg, and people who go out of their way not to get killed.

You are quite the idiot.

No duey you never said anything about the game, are you mentally challenged? I'm saying why do you focus on the stupid release date when you don't even know whats going to be in the game yet.

so far from home
you'll be safe from peril
life threatening and terrible
if you avoid David Powel
and keep track of your towel.

That's just a necessity of the website's code. Bungie has a tradition of releasing in September (which means "Seventh Month") so they put that in as a filler date.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.
