"Something you would expect, something you should expect, and something so new it came with instructions."

Speaking about the take home play testing for Reach.


The funny thing is i got home from work with my copy of what i like to think is maybe Halo's only (slightly) close rival in the FPS genre "CoD: MW2" and when I opened the disc holder i realized the Instruction Manual was a shocking 9 page paper thin booklet.

don't get me wrong i love CoD :P but I cant help but think this quote was a slight poke at this shortcoming haha, <3 you Bungie keep the laughs coming!

Same thing happened to me lol. I am not even done with the game, but let's not get on the MW2 topic. Reach's gonna win.

I doubt it's a poke at the fail of a manual that came with MW2, but if it was a joke its pretty damn funny. lol

im pretty sure they were just hinting that some new things will be implimented into the game?

and if you look at the cases spine it says ecosomthing and if you take the book out its missing plastic.

so eco=less paper and plastic

its not a fail manual! just eco freindly so less paper!

There once was an ugly barnacle. He was so ugly that everyone died.

The end.

Call of Duty's Multiplayer is good. Great. Reach is gonna have some Competition, especially when Battlefield: Bad Company 2 comes out.

Haha yeah I'm sure its nothing but its something to ponder :P


Edit- Good point!, eco friendly is a win in my book.

Edit2- One of the best things about Bungie is their ability to make an instruction manual that is both helpful and entertaining.

There is nothing wrong with Halo:Reach. We all just have our gripes about everything we don't like. Not liking something doesn't make it broken.

Right, because it makes sense to compare two completely different types of FPS.

the only thing the games share are the FPS category. It's like pitting a Football team against a Baseball team. Just shut it and be intelligent enough NOT to compare and just enjoy.

Sorry if I sound like I'm attacking, but that is the kind of mindset that robs people of the ability to enjoy videogames past specific titles.

When you talk like that, you sound like what people consider the worst part of the gaming world: World of Warcraft fans. They think and say the same stuff in the same ways.
