I think most people here will absolutely despise Reach.

Obviously Reach. The worse price was ODST and why the hell is Halo Wars so high? That game was awesome!

Halo 3 was bad and Halo 2 was ok. Combat Evolved and Halo Wars are awesome games and tied with Ocarina of Time.


I still have Ocarina of Time :D
The only bad part is my Nintendo controller don't work and can't find any new ones D:

I don't, i like all the halo games, even halo wars, i think the anniversary was a good idea, but to me, it's not one of those games you would be wasting money, again... can't wait for halo 4

-Marcus Aurelius

Halo: Reach is the worst out the Halo games though personally i think Reach was a victim of the franchises success.

Look at all the different game modes and game types Halo has given people over the years. Co-op campaigns, forge mode, theatre mode, file sharing, Hardcore competition, relaxed social gaming, griffball, living dead, racing, zany custom games. The list goes on and on.

If you ask 10 people why they love Halo, you'll probably get 10 different answers. The problem Reach had is that there were many different sub-communities to cater for. Sometimes when you try and please everyone, you just please no one.

The best thing Halo 4 could do is go back to being a Sci-Fi shoot 'em up. The other, more novelty, gametypes would make excellent stand alone titles on XBLA. Just imagine an official Griffball game.

^ This. I feel like Reach spread itself out too thin. This is a huge generalization, but just to summarize what I think made Halo 3 great, was not that it was designed for tons of crazy customs, but that it simply had a robust sandbox that was complimented greatly by great core game-play mechanics.

Reach went far out in the way of extra features, and I think that may have resulted in a more neglected core-experience.

Halo CE had the best campaign. It had the best enemy and overall difficulty. I never felt cheated when I died. Every weapon was actually useful.

Just thought I'd through that out there.

Halo CE

1. Crap level designs
2. Crap physics
3. OP weapons
4. Crap storytelling and crap character development
5. Crap battles and enemies
6. The only level thats even slightly replayable is AotCR
7. Its sh1t the whole way through
Come at me


Really?

1. The level designs were perfect for how the game played. Wide open, very little camping in this game. You'll always have some but most maps didn't allow for sit in a corner and wait.

2. Physics? What do you mean? If you weight 2 tons, you guy should be able to jump very high. When you get hit be a grenade it throw your body around, and a grenade would cause weapons and picks to move (THEY SHOULD)

3. OP weapons can't really be used, because everyone started with the same weapon. It's not OP if you keep losing to a person over rand over again because you're failing.

4. Wasn't a big story mode guy but really, they didn't have much to go with. The story made sense at the time.

5. Battle in Legendary were amazing, and the LANs will never be forgotten. 4 hour CTF Hang em High matches.

6. Again not a story mode player, but the only MP map that sucked was the teleporter crazy map. Cheron or something like that.

7. It was only a bad game if you had no local friends to play it with. I could get a LAN together within minutes any day of the week, just make a few calls. EVERYONE played it around me.

NEVERMIND, I read a later post of yours, when you said "wandering around MP map". Who the hell did that, I was to busy LANNING with all my friends to be wandering around. Saldy, I am not afraid to say this, I have easily 10K-20K games played in Halo:CE if not more. That was when I was in highschool and had nothing better to do as I moved and baseball season was the only thing I enjoyed at school.

When Mark V guy starts talking about anything Halo, just ignore him. His opinion is ridiculously fickle and invalid.

Then not to be the dick, but CE is rated the best of the best because of the MP, not because of campaign. It was good, but nothing amazing, but you can't say the game sucked if you didn't play what it was adored for.

It was such a game, my buddy is getting married in a few months and being his best man, he asked me to find 4 original setup so we can have an old school LAN with friends we haven't seen in years. Dropping $300-$400 for a old school night of CE, WELL WORTH IT.

And how is Reach any better?

Crap encounters

Crap levels

Crap vehicles mechanics

Crap weapons

Dumb AI

Forgettable characters

Reach has absolutely no staying power.

10 years from now no one will remember Reach even existed.

Everyone is entitled to their own wrong opinion.


I'm part of the Bungie.net Minecraft group/server called SeptaCrafters
We're a Bungie.net group that goes to our very own Bungie server. Most players are from the Halo community either off Bungie itself or through word to Halo friends.

Halo Reach doesn't count as it has NOTHING to do with the ring itself.
Halo ODST see above
Halo CEA is a remake and doesn't even count.


So. Halo 3

  • 01.31.2012 9:10 AM PDT

Halo 1-3 were okay, Reach needs work. ODST was fine. Halo Wars was better suited as a cutscene short movie. CEA is a remake of the first one.
