Subject: After playing reach..

After playing halo reach I came to the full conclusion that it is the worst halo game ever created. Halo 3, halowars, odst I mean sure they weren't the best games but halo reach WOW.. Scratch that game completely and bring halo 2 back to live right now! lol seriously...

Attitudes are contagious, mine might kill you.


If you're looking for my Halo 2 online records my account was "Destri" back then, but for some reason xbox live won't let me link it to my bungie profile :( Well whatever I guess.

What seems to be the problem with it?

50s in: Slayer, Doubles, Lone Wolves, Objective, Ranked BTB, Swat, Snipers.

I agree. It has strayed so far from the Halo formula, it's ridiculous.

halo 2 still the best game in the series. long live halo 2.

Dam, I miss the old days playing halo 2 with my old brothers in arms. Thank you my old friends for giving me this account, I shall continue our legacy.

it doesnt run smoothly, online like halo 2 or 3 did. plus everyone gets the chance to be invisible, fly around in a jetpack or run like superman. it lost the feeling halo 2 had, its hard to describe it.

kind of agree.. its an ok game.. but doesnt really feel like halo. the only game type that feels like halo is "covy slayer". i feel like theyre trying to be like COD and GOW for god only knows what reason

Eh lame. If the formula has worked wonderful so far, why change it?

If it ain't broke...

Yeah...Halo reach has shown me how good Halo 2 and 3 really were.

I don't know, just this whole situation has been getting to me lately. In the last couple of weeks Halo 2 has been taken down and Reach has gone up; it really makes me pine for the old days when the whole Halo universe and community wasn't so bloated. You know, the days of LAN parties and all that. Yeah it might seem like an outdated model, but they need to remember what got them where they are now.

Well we can't go back now. Its not that Reach isn't Halo, its that its not got that certain Halo style charm to it.
And dude seriously saying its worse than halo wars was harsh!

  • 05.05.2010 11:38 AM PDT

iam with you =D

Halo RTS
>oh SWEET

On 360 only
>FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF FFFFFFF

also, we're going to mess with the plot for no real reason, and throw stuff in simply because we want it to be in the game rather than have anything make sense
>no, bungie, NO!

and we're going to make it SUPER easy for you to play it, because we know how it SHOULD be on PC, so enjoy having the game hold your hand the entire time
>stop, just stop...

look shiney graphics
>oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh

R.I.P. Halo 2

I wouldn't say it's bad, but as far as the multiplayer goes, Reach is definitely on the bottom.

Halo Reach is a massive 'screw you' to Halo 2. Uber fun glitches? Never. Dual Wielding? Gone. Health packs? Back. Awesome BR? Nerfed, 3-burst -> one shot, 4SK->5SK.

I still like it thought, but I can see why you hate it, it's so completely not Halo 2.

Power gives birth to ambition... and ambition to war...

Argh, Halo Wars wasn't made by Bungie. Any problems, it's Ensemble you need to blame.

I like Reach, I find that it plays like a faster paced Halo 3. Sure, there are things wrong with it, but it is a beta and I can forgive them. Halo wars is an RTS, halo ODST is essentially completely different from Halo 1,2,3 in terms of gameplay.

While you are at it, complain that Gears of War plays nothing like Halo 2, and that the gore frightens you.
