Subject: Reach to be a better effort than ODST???

Posted by: WAR HOROR13
ODST did dissapoint me (and others), but Reach has been in progress either before or a little bit after the release of Halo 3. It will be awesome.

And a big wall of text is bad, the enter key is good. :D

Why So Serious?

My friend, Reach will be amazing. Trust me.

It was going to be priced as an exspansion, then they added more campagin levels to make the campagin about an hour shorter then Halo 3s. With that, Firefight, and the mythic disk you get $60 of fun. And for a game where they had about half the team working on it for only a year, it was pretty good. I say it was worth the $60 easily.

but why make an expansion and price it as if its a full blown game? I know some might say cause they can, but Id say well I can go postal and kill a bunch of people but I choose not to cause its wrong lol (I know extreme example but it works)... So I would think bungie would have some ethics and give their hard core fan base a price break on a less than half title which ODST is, right?


ODST started of as an expansion but due to constant adding of more -blam- to the game it transformed into a halo 3.5,complete with a full set of achievmentsm awards that are soon to come and graphics that only prepare us for the epic journey that it reach...

I think it's fair enough to say that it will be Bungie's head on a stick if they don't do full justice to the great war tale that is Reach

And if this one proves once again short like Halo3 and ODST, loads of fans are just going to loose faith in Bungie completely at this point

After Halo1, Bungie seems to have the very excellent knack of delivering very good games that delight while at the same time disapoint

I honestly don't have the highest of hopes for Reach but Bungie are the only one up to the task of pulling it off

Though i would love to be proven utterly wrong and i would gladly eat large portions of humble pie at that point

My talents include always knowing the wrong thing to say.

ODST started as a 3 hour expansion pack and built up from there. Reach has always been a full game from the start.

Of course it is gonna be better than ODST, cause it is an actual full installment in the series rather than an expansion off of Halo 3. Plus, it has a lot longer dev cycle than ODST did. That being said I don't think ODST was a complete ripoff moneywise. I would have liked a longer campaign and maybe another multiplayer mode besides Firefight to make the 60 bucks seem more worth it, but I have spent 60 dollars on other games that I have spent a fraction of the time I spent on ODST playing. So I don't feel that bad about the money.
