There both pretty good. But in my opinion if you want longer missions, better graphics, and better multiplayer, definetly Halo Reach. But for campaign I suggest Halo 2. I hope you find this haelpful!
The problem with Reach's campaign, is that Bungie seem to have forgotten the sandbox FPS Halo WAS. They mixed Cod elements in the game, like Invisible walls, return to battlefield, no civilian killings, scripting etc etc.
Instead of having huge battles with lots of enemies on the screen, you only fight a bunch of small encounters here and there. It seems that instead of creating battles with A lot of enemies, they focused too much on graphics, and worthless cutscenes.
Also Reach may technical be the best in the graphics department, but all the other games have better design, colorpalette and astetics.
I make it sound like a bad game, and of course its not. It's defenitly between the best FPS out there. But comparing it to the previous games, it just seems like it took a wrong direction, and just not as good in comparison (both SP and MP actually).
Also the multiplayer...pfff. It's still Halo and good, probaly better than Halo 3, but with even worse maps than that game had (Heretic was a reliefe to get back though). I can't believe how mainstream friendly it have become. Look at all those huge Reach maps. Bungie had promised they woulden't forget the hardcore community and include small maps, i wonder when or if that will happen.
I think it's good Bungie is taking a break with Halo, it's clear that they become tired of making Halo, there are so many small problems with the game, that woulden't be found it the previous games.
Im looking forward to see Bungies next project very much though.
