Very soon, for the first time in 10 years, I will not have a Halo to play and that makes me sad. Reach is just so awful to me. Maybe Bungie set the standard so high with the first few that my expectations were not realistic. I would have loved a cleaned up version of H2 without glitches and I got a combination of CoD and Shadowrun. This is NOT a hate thread, but rather a sad ending for me. Bungie's vision was completely different than mine for the Halo franchise.

I just can't do it. Spartans don't breathe heavy, get tired, and run out of juice. Spartans don't have Birthday parties when they kill or hearts when they die. Spartans DON'T move like Call of Duty characters or jump like a 1 legged fat woman. Every weapon shouldn't perform exactly the same way. Pistol = short range version of DMR = Needle Rifle = short range versions of Sniper. no variety outside of automatic weapons. If Reach was the first ever released version of Halo, I probably wouldn't be here or care, but that wasn't the case. H2 (greatest) H:CE (Great) H3 (very good) Reach (whatever)

Much Love and I'm Happy for those who enjoy the new staff's vision....peace

You have no idea how much I feel your pain. Reach is such a letdown, but hey, the noobs are happy, thats all bungie cares about. Just because they are the majority.

...and that's who moves the ticker. Bungie had nothing to lose with Reach. The game would sell regardless. It's business. Now, just wait for 343 to take their shot. They'll have something to prove.

Oh, and Jason Jones wasn't involved.

Whatever, if bungie wants more money why didn't they go multi console? All those noobs bought the game, then they are just going to pick up another new game. With reach, all the true fans aren't going to want the next bungie game so thats it. What is left for bungie? Halo was the only thing they had and they killed it. I am SO ready for Crysis 2, Halo 3 will have to suffice for the time being.

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

The Halo series is dead to me now. ODST was nothing but a money grab, and Reach is just a giant ball of garbage trying to appeal to super-casual players. If you think that's bad, wait until 343 Industries (a puppet of MS) milks this cash cow dry.

I will spend the rest of my gaming days playing the Halo trilogy.

To educate you, Microsoft locked up the Halo series a decade ago when it launched the Xbox. Bungie did NOT have that option. I'm not hating on you, but dude.. if you have a take, at least understand the basics. I hope to see you on Halo 3 and praying BLACK OPS is good

Lol that was funny, I totally agree, Halo 3 was my favorite ever. I played custom games all they time with my friends and now even with advanced and better forge tools everyone is either on crap matchmaking or another game. I'm moving on from Reach today,

Post to everyone who complains about Reach instead of shutting up and playing something else. http://initiativedesignz.webs.com/HaloReachStuff/Fixn.jpg

To me it needs playlist tweaks and map boundary tweaks.

The game isn't brken but there are alot of ppl using lame tactics (SWAT jumpers, endless shotgun campers, ppl climbmng ot of map on Infection)

I personally love Reach (played/review the Beta just so it'd turn out nearly exactly as it did) and left Halo 3 gladly due to all the misguided jerks (not pointing fingers).

WOW - thats just stupid.
Microsoft also owned bungie when H3 was developed ... so how the frack does your claim even start?!?

Its like '10 years ago, but reach is new and bad, but H3 is older and closed to the 10 year lock-up, but its good - derp derp' ... huh?!?

I just don't find Reach fun, the ranks are addicting and the customization is awesome, but when I'm infuriated by the BS in multiplayer, it just makes the whole thing a chore to play.
Oh well, I'll sell it or something. Two disappointments in a row from bungie.

  • 11.07.2010 3:25 PM PDT

If you can read this, that means I'm not a Shaolin monk...

yet.

Reach is byfar the worst Halo game. I had more fun with Halo Wars. I'm back to Halo 3.

  • 11.07.2010 3:49 PM PDT

Yeah, I'm really sad about the game as well.

Yah but if the noobs are all bungie cares about they are probably going to move on to black ops. Its the veterans the ones who have been around for years they should be focusing on.

:3 I will die. :[

Too bad,Bungie is complete trash without Shiska playing on Bungie vs the World.I ran that playlist and only Shiska was the best on the team.Mostly the employees run around with ARs,hoping to get an AR kill or AR beatdown.

Basically,most of them are noobs.The one who isn't embracing the game is probably Shiska.
