Subject: Reach has been good to me...

Happy hunting.

So, it's been 2 years and a bit since the release of Reach, and now I'm ready to move on.

Reach was the first Halo game where I spent 6+ hours a day playing sometimes... I loved it personally.

Sadly I missed the whole Halo 3 craze on Xbox Live so I never really understood the hate when people tried transitioning to Reach.

I'm quite sad as I never got close to Inheritor as I was trying so hard to reach that rank. But I AM happy as to how far I got. I'm proud to tell people I am a Hero in Reach.

So thanks so much Bungie for the past 2 years of my life, Reach brought me into the Halo Universe a lot more than any Halo, and I had some great times with friends. And because of Reach I am looking at going into a Games Development career (maybe even try to apply at Bungie!).

Thanks for reading!

There's always room for you, If you want to be my friend.

If you want me to move, you can just ask.

Religion is stupid. Halo is amazing.

Yeah, I agree. Reach has probably been my most memorable Halo experience next to 3.

Any good memories of Reach I had were overshadowed by it's flaws.

Halo Reach is a peace of art. I really enjoyed the campaign and the multiplayer.

Yeah, many fans will agree! There are too many that try to observe Reach's flaws. It was a beauty of a creation. My first Xbox game too! So many good memories, there'll always be a place in my game cabinet for her.

Walk by faith. Dude. Not by sight.

<3'd Reach.

It was a great game.

Reach was your first Halo so of course you will love it. Different for me though, Halo 3 was the first game I played on XBL and I still love it. As for Reach, the only thing I liked about it was Bungie day although that doesn't really count.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

We bought our daughter an Xbox as a Christmas present so she could play the Fallout games. It came with Reach as a bundle.
After a while she got fed up, the novelty wore off and the Xbox just sat there gathering dust.
Then one night I was all alone in the house. I was bored and the wife had parent-locked the computer so I couldn't watch young ladies in various stages of undress so I was moping around when I spied this forlorn copy of Reach.
I blew the dust off the case, opened the seal and loaded the disk into the machine...

Now, after nearly two years of shooting Covies on Campaign and being shot at by Yanks on MM and when I think of all the sweat, tears and frustration it took me to get to Elite, really what I want to say is this:

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Bungie - it was great while it lasted!

If only the wife wasnt such a hard case, you wouldnt have had to subject yourself to less satisfying material like reach.

Perhaps you could excert your authority, or at least invest some time into an adult 'how to use your computer' course - either way find out how to remove that perental lock.

If that doesnt work out ... go buy a decent game.

That was a vastly inferior experience compared to Bungie Day 2010.

The only good thing I saw in the recent Bungie Day was a webcam capture of the Webmaster with steak sauce.

I except REACH flaws as I did with all the gliches in Halo 2.

Halo 3 with the TU was a perfect game.

I will miss REACH Fire Fight.

Halo 4 is looking good. And is still based on REACH play style.

Too true ... bungie managed to cheat us even on the [self] named day in their [cough] honor.

Only had to look at the gamer history of those representing bungie to see that there were fewer people [from bungie] playing short shifts.

Most studios would have wanted to go out with a massive bang ... but not bungie.
