deej pls

Think back at what Halo has been. Now compare it to games of their time.

As you all may realize, reach only has 1 goal, which is to rank up. Looking at other games, they have other goals and challenges, such as weapon unlocks, vehicle unlocks, along with offering a more diverse combat situation.

Look at what Halo has been, it has been a major competitor in the video game market, for the sole fact that it was so advanced in the Halo 2/3 era, but the fan population demanded nothing change, and Bungie didn't want to change anything.

Halo had a winning formula, but things suddenly changed. With the new generation of gaming that came after MW2, more advanced challenges replaced the old "just have fun and rank up".

Anyone agree? Its not because of bloom, or AL. Its because of the competition.

Sometimes, I dream about cheese.

yes OP, we all know the later titles get the most criticism while Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2 remains the top dog

What? Look at the jump from CE to H2 and the jump from H3 to Reach. Bungie was always been trying to do Halo differently.

あなたはばかです。

Ok, seriously. I've been here since the Halo 3 days, and you know what? People have been saying this about every single Halo game since Halo 2 (I did occasionally read the old threads on the H2 forums). I've heard this about every single non-Combat Evolved game, and I'm sick of it. This time next year, your kind will be saying the same thing about Halo 4 and how all the others were better. You know what? If the Halo games are so bad now, leave. I'm tired of it, and so is everyone else who has put up with this for years.

We all knew that Reach would get glassed in the end. I just thought that it would be by the covenant, not 343.

Your presence here is quite unneeded. Begone you!!!

Bungie has always made the game evolve to not only give players a new, fresher experience, but also keep up with competitors that have risen in the past few years. Sadly no matter what happens it seems to be difficult to compete with the mediocrity of CoD these days.

To be honest, when I first saw all this in the weekly update I thought 2 things.
#1- there is an actual legendary ending but,
#2- No matter what anyone does,(kill all the bobs, hit all switches etc) that until the "time" mentioned in "There'll be another time..." is reached there won't be a legendary ending.

The weekly update by bungie has slowed my hardcore search for what unlocks the legendary ending.
