Main GT, now permanently banned: DISORDERRRRRRRR
Before you gamestalk me, my H3 Exp is boosted because I'm not playing 5000 games again like I did on my main account for my 5 star. I AFKed and Grif boosted wtih supers0ak to get to Inheritor since I'm impatient when it comes to processional ranks. Nothing in Reach shows skill unless you play with the person anyways.

It feels like I'm 10 years younger (sis introduced me to Halo when I was 9). EVERYTHING is exactly the same, that's why its so good. It's Halo CE improved graphically, and all of these children online who haven't even graduated 8th grade who play living dead all day need to understand what Halo is, not some pathetic attempt by Bungie to make a title of theirs realistic and better(lolReach).

It deserves more praise even though it is exactly the same. There is nothing bad about that because its a remake, and 343 succeeded in that. Every future freshman in High School who first played Reach should find out what Halo really is.


Opinions? Thoughts? Hate comments?

This is a Reach account that I created the day they announced his name in a bnet weekly update. Any stats regarding ODST or Halo 3 are irrelevant. Also, Halo CE master race. Halo 1 > other halo games > other games.

Account Status: Silver :(

I Agree. I haven't played CEA (got it for $30, but I'm at college right now) yet, but I know the original and can say it gave a lot more memories than Halo Reach ever will. I still miss the multiplayer (being that I have mlg level skills in it), but at least this update might get me to play reach again.

343i has a lot riding on Halo 4. I for one would like to see an updated version of Halo 3s art style with Halo 2s structures. Obviously the gameplay is going to be its own, but I hope it's not like Reach. /rant


Also, the reviews are disgraceful. Machinima's review is especially bad.

You should see Rooster Teeth's reviews.

"Angry Angels, Honour & Loyalty!"

Dont forget that this is a remake, with a terrible timing...(a lots of similar games going out about the same time), its more than a challenge for 343 team and Halo fans, either not to underestimate expectations and the others triyng to keep the emotions contained.

That said, the game is awesome.

The Reach graphics work very well in the CE environment, the music, that epic music, is now something worth to ear on a long cross-country car trip and the skulls and terminals (besides the GRD dolls ;) ) add just what we missed in Reach from the other Halos.

Bottom line:

"Good work, 343. We KNOW you are just getting started, but thats what I call a right foot one. Keep the good job, we will be here...watching..."

just a shame its bugged to hell, i've just had black screen, dashboard still working, and my co-op partner still playing and can see me moving around. Not to mention the jump lag. But a nice memory of a great halo game

i plai 4 fun gtfo

Didn't bother blowing $40 on a remake of a game I already have. I just picked up the map pack for $15 instead. I had a good time in the three games I played, even though it's still insanely easy.

And that was my first game in a good while.

  • 11.16.2011 5:10 AM PDT

I had a blast playing it. The co-op split screen sucks. I don't know maybe I am just not used to it. Or maybe they made it like that on purpose. Seeing how Master Chief is the main character. Well other wise really had fun with it.

I only 'lost' one game yesterday and that was because the other team decided to boot one of our players.

Otherwise, they were all steaks or close. Best game of the night.

This playlist shows Reachtards how bad they are at real Halo, and I love it.

Inheritor # 1,117 Overall via HaloCharts
Inheritor # 275 in United States

I love it! The new graphics are just amazing. And I have not played this campaign in 10 years...so it really feels like an entire new game to me since I dont remember most of it.

IT IS AWESOME!!!!

my only problem is that the human AIs on the new FF map are completely useless. I could not even get them to enter the warthog gunner seat. and the enemies and normal pasted the floor with them before i even got to the tower.

As I told him in pre game and post game, this is a little justice for matching me with a full team while I was searching random.

While you're busy reading this, I have made my daring escape!

Nicely done on 343's part, being the first non-bungie Halo game (Halo Wars doesn't count.) It feels like this is the way the game should have been. So glad they brought back skull-hunting, instead of just dumping them in front of you and saying"Here ya go."

"We live in a special time; the only time where we can observationally verify that we live in a very special time" - Lawrence Krauss.

I was a finalist :P

A 7/10 for me.

The 'revamped' music was not at a high enough volume, and was not as exhilarating in the moments it played, unlike in Halo: CE (went to change to the classic music settings via the options almost straight away).

Some of the camera angles (during the cinematics) were changed, as were some of the actions performed by the characters. Cinematics in Halo: CE > Halo: CEA (in my opinion).

"Angry Angels, Honour & Loyalty!"

New title? where? Halo CE is over 10 years old!!! As all the maps! the new thing are the graphisc...period.

  • 11.18.2011 7:07 AM PDT

Who's got AIDS?

I enjoyed it and I didn't mind paying that price for the game. I just wish the old graphics were EXACTLY the same as the original ones. They are pretty close but not exact. That's a minor gripe though.

It's in HD.

I'm happy.

"Angry Angels, Honour & Loyalty!"

Exactly! It's a remake, not a whole game! Its made for the fans who love the saga (and a few, not old enough to know about the first one!)

You are happy, I m in extasis... :D

  • 11.18.2011 7:51 AM PDT

chances are I don't care who you are or what you say.

its good, I enjoyed it

  • 11.18.2011 7:53 AM PDT

Stop banning me please.

I love how they kept things exactly the same but they still should have updated vehicle physics i think.

"You're like a car crash in slow motion. It's like I'm watchin' ya fly through a windshield" -Scout

I've only played the first two levels of the campaign (due to Skyrim), and in both I played with a friend with the worst connection ever, so it was incredibly laggy. Still, I had more fun with it than the co-op in Reach, but seeing as how I don't really have an interest in the maps, I find myself wondering of it was worth the $40.

RC Clone is the anti-thesis of a lurker.

A waste of Money for a game you've already played.
