I've never really played Halo, maybe a few times at friends, but other then that, nope. If I'll put it this way, to me, it's kinda like a movie that's already started, and I just can't be bothered to jump in the mittle of it and watch the rest of it.
then why don't you restart the movie and watch it from the beginning?
I love Halo, I don't care for much of the multiplayer (except the special gametypes, like Grifball) but the singleplayer is great, as is the coop and Firefight with friends.
Again, you can get Halo CE from XBLA or what they call it. Xbox Live Originals.
Buy it for PC. You'll get so much out of it.
I still can't get into the game at all.
So.... old. There's nothing new about it, its Halo CE with better graphics. Story was cool, but like most games, if you play it once, you play it a billion times. Unless you like uber-linear-ness. That's ok.
If I wanted mindless repetitive game play, I'd play TF2 or Counter Strike.
Wait, I do.

I guess it's a good thing that Reach tosses up the formula tremendously.
True, I LOVED the Reach beta.
I will be playing that game every day of the rest of my life, and then some. The beta was sick enough, I can't wait to play it. Mostly because I can go invisible.... FINALLY :3: The day I can "Spy" in a game, I can finally enjoy it

I've recently noticed that only singleplayer games can keep me enticed. Multiplayer wears off in a month or two. I haven't spent any time even worth mentioninh in any multiplayer game when you compare it to STALKER (250+ hours), Fallout 3 (120+ hours) or XCOM: Ufo Defense (400+ hours)

The CE modding community is still alive and the game has players online, too.

Ignore the dumb edits to it by the people who pulled all the strings. And yeah these are real. I've got them pulled up right now from the boneyard.map file if you'd like a screenshot.[/QUOTE]
Holy shit.
Screenshot now also all that BETTER stay in the full game.

insert corny tf2 spy joke here
Also, from this post on, everyone list their backup games.
TF2.
[QUOTE=DOG-GY;23381367]Buy it for PC. You'll get so much out of it.[/QUOTE]
I can't get behind that. It doesn't feel good.
Holy shit, do you think we'll be able to use those abilities in the campaign?!
Some of you guys should try playing Custom edition
Yeah, we're gonna have some "limited" customization of the main character, to quote bungie [ish] fist puncher. At the very least that means loadouts. And likely some actual armor customization, since the bits now offer stat bonuses apparently.

Are you talking about Halo: Reach? They are totally different things.
For example!
No Master Chief
No Cortana
No "Halo"
More weapons
Armor Abilities
Space Battles
Firefight 2.0
Forge 2.0
Brutes
Armor Customization
Credits
Spartan III and not a Spartan II
New Characters
More gametypes (Ex. Invasion, Generator Defense, Head Hunter, Stockpile)
I approve of this thread.
Also, that big list of extracted string data is pretty cool. Any chance more of it could be listed, or is that all?
[QUOTE=Frazah;23390873]I can post all of the new Firefight customization options. Hold on.
SCROLLPOCALYPSE 2010!!!

Yeah, I saw those on Bungie.net. There was so much info I couldn't actually begin to read it...
I remember skimming through that entire list of things because of how absurdly long it was. I can read long lines of stuff but that's just too long.
Also Bungie, thanks for actually taking time on this game and not making it a shitty letdown like Halo 3.

I think you can go on the cliffs too.
I'm suprised no one thought death island was a awesome map.

Halo wars was crap (why have an RTS not on PC.?)
[QUOTE=pieman26;23398240]Halo wars was crap (why have an RTS not on PC.?)[/QUOTE]
Because the series is xbox exclusive.
Besides, the controls were alright. Too bad that there were no real tactics involved, just rush a steady stream of units into the enemies base.
