Country: United States.
State: Pennsylvania.
County: Warren.
I graduated from high school on June-11-2011. I'm 19 right now. I'm turning 20 in December. I like playing video games, and board games. I like reading Sci-Fi, and World War II novels, and what not.

"There is nothing better in the world than being better at a video game than someone else....oh wait"

And the Halo 3 level Halo. The Warthog run. Comes from the Warthog run from The Maw level in Halo Combat Evolved.

Anyone else notice that?
OP you're a little to late.

Most of Reach is a poorly derived copypasta of previous Halo games, unfortunately.

The opening of LNoS when you fight through the beach is a throwback to Silent Cartographer, the assault on the Ardent Prayer is more or less like the Truth and Reconciliation, as is the opening of Nightfall (which was an abysmal attempt to recreate the sniping section).

The Mongoose run is obviously based off the Warthog run from Halo CE and 3.

The section where you hold out for Keyes is basically the bit from ODST's NMPD HQ level where you fight by the downed Pelican.

The Package is more or less a remake of the latter half of Uprising (from Halo 2) and Coastal highway (from ODST).

Exodus is pretty much the only level that's truly original in the game.

CE had the best campaign, so it is natural that newer Halo games would borrow from it.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Underwhelming; that's all I can say.

Yeah. There's no sense of scale, you see those two Scarabs come down but there's no threat of danger because they just ignore you. In CE and 3, there were explosions everywhere and you really got the feeling that you had to keep moving.

It almost seems like an intentional gimmick that I can drive through the whole Mongoose section in Reach in a truck that goes about 5mph taking almost no damage.
