(To discuss Halo 4.)

Halo Reach is doing fine, the population complainers are desperate to find a reason to hate the game.

Even Halo 3 is losing to COD4, even though Halo 3 outsold it on the 360 by quite a bit.

Now that is a fail, but Halo 3 is still a good game.

MW3 got more UU's in 2 months than Reach did in a year.

lol

Honestly, not suprised by that. It is a good game, in my opinion not as good as Halo, but that's my opinion. It's also well marketed and has a massive following anyway, it is the juggernaught of video games like it or not.
Sadly, Halo was the juggernaut of video games until Reach came out.

The decline occurred well over a year before Halo: Reach was even released. As one of the kids said, a LOT more people play these days than then too. Halo: Reach's numbers are quite high and, going exclusively off of them, Halo: Reach was still quite successful YES even when compared to the other Halo games. The SOLE 'numbers' thing that puts Halo: Reach down is that Call of Duty is the top game. There are PLENTY of reasons for this besides 'Oh Halo: Reach is a bad game' and I pity this world's future if the next generation is unable to comprehend this.

Got a DMR sitting at ToD in every game type .... are you still going to call me a booster?

I really just don't get all the "OMG COD IS BEATING HALO NOBODY LIKES HALO" crap.

Of course CoD games are going to have more players, they're 100x easier to pick up and more about who sees who first, not actual skill. I've got relatives and friends that play them all religiously, then wind up over here at my place watching me play Reach and don't know what to think.

97% of those that play those games are terrible at Halo, so why would they play it?

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

The population gain should be credited to the Zero-bloom MLG update, and a few other small ones. That's exactly when the population went from 40-60k a day to 100k+.

So, they were right. Reach WOULD never have lasted as a Halo game, but 343i thankfully fixed it.

Halo Reach's numbers aren't that high IMO. I dont consider 90,000-100,000 players to be a lot. Halo 3 had around 300,000 players before Reach came out. Thats pretty high in my opinion.

Just think how many more people would be playing it if the changes that have been made recently had been made when people were asking for it?

Let's see..

COD BO - Players all year
COD MW3 - Players for 2 months
COD MW2 - Players all year
Halo Reach - Players all year
BF3 - Players for 2 months
Skyrim - Players for 2 months
GOW 3 - Players for 3 months
Fifa 12 - Players for 4 months
Fifa 11 - Players all year
Madden 12 - Players for 5 months

So Reach actually isn't doing that good since only 1 game behind it in the top 10 is less than 5 months old and still got more players than Reach did in a full year.. Kinda sad.

In terms of Halo yeah it failed, but it's still a good game.

Halo Reach does not fail. I like it and this is imo.

Desperation can lead into mistakes. If you think you can achieve everything, try to do that. You can earn 'em all.

It's decent, but I dig the new weapons.

  • 01.09.2012 4:18 PM PDT

That's the whole year. BF3 and Skyrim are up there.

That sends a message.

I seem to go negative more than I go to positive. I still think I will get a 50 on this account, I've been practicing in LAN 1v1s against my sister and been playing Mythic difficulty.

but it also held the same competition as reach,
That is the most retarded, wrong, idiotic statement I have ever read. That says something about you.

On topic: Yes, Call of Duty games are first. But I would like to note... Halo: Reach still beat out every OTHER game ever made for the year. And to idiots saying 'Oh Halo 3 did better for three years!'

If it's better, then why is Halo: Reach utterly crushing it? We've already established that how old a game is doesn't matter since you kids talk about how Halo was up for years and Call of Duty STILL is. "Oh all the fanboys are with Reach!" Is that so? But I thought the stupid people said that NOBODY played Halo: Reach? But for it to be so high in the yearly AND still in the top 10 for the weekly ones, lots of folks must still play it.

Halo: Reach did fantastic. Good for it. Fantastic game, and clearly most people agree. As per the numbers, which seem to be all the retarded people care about.
