So we still got Halo 3 Double EXP just up until Reach releases?
That's not so bad.

Yeah, I just hope that they don't forget about Halo 3. Because a lot of people are still gonna be playing it, even after Reach's release. Also, here's some new Firefight gameplay, courtesy of IGNentertainment.

Check out the different classes, and how they finish by completing an objective. Interesting...
i know that you guys will hate me for what im going to say: ive never played a single halo game. but a few days ago i saw a halo reach poster at gamestop and i saw a shitload of advertisements online on that and thought, "maybe i should try this..." so i pre ordered it. i look forward to playing the deathmatch games on it

Why would we hate you for that? I'm slightly surprised that you've never played Halo, but, as Bungie would say, "You picked a hell of a day to join up."

Snippet from article:
1.Playlists are going to be combined, modified, or removed, based on how we predict they will perform once Reach is released. Ultimately the number of playlists will be reduced from its current number.
2.No new playlists will be added from this point onward.
3.Playlists will progressively become DLC required, leaving Social Slayer and Lone Wolves as the only DLC-optional playlists once again.
[b]4.Double EXP weekends will come to an end on 9/13. But not before we throw them a little going away party.[/b]
5.7 on 7th will live on, but beyond the release of Reach no further updates are planned for Halo 3 Matchmaking.[/QUOTE]
My Birthday :smug:
[QUOTE=Dolton;23507163]My Birthday :smug:[/QUOTE]
You're birthday's one day early, otherwise you could get Reach for your birthday.
[QUOTE=neos300;23505000]You forgot Halo: Custom Edition.
Essentially a moddable Halo: Combat Evolved.[/QUOTE]
this was the best game ever
I'm one day closer to getting Reach, yay!
[QUOTE=DOG-GY;23510757]this was the best game ever[/QUOTE]
yes
just that
yes
I really hope they enable clip recording and rewinding in firefight and campaign, I know they set it's something to do with an engine limitation, but if they could figure a way around that it'd be brilliant, I did have a few fun moments in firefight on ODST outside of gathering a group to get that achievement, and slogging through the replays only to miss the moment or only be able to see it once is a bit of a bitch.
Also, wonder how the firefight playlists will be, a few objective based ones and maybe an endless one?

You should play Halo: CE so you have an idea of the story since halo: CE was right after Reach, and it is a great game.
URGHHH, I want my birthday to get here so I could just pre-order the damn thing already.

Also yeah, Reach ends just about the hour Halo:CE begins.
I'm not good with following the storyline of Halo, but were the Covenant the first alien species that humans encountered?

Yeah, then the Flood came and raped everybody's shit
Jackals were the first, to be precise. Humans had of course encountered local flora and fauna on some planets, but no sentient beings.
The plasma rifle is back. Fuck YES
Uh it wasn't ever away
I don't know if I want to buy this, I rarely ever touch my Xbox these days, and I don't really want to buy gold.
But it does look interesting.
I dunno why but i also had extremely bad prejudices against the whole thing until i played it. Can't wait til imma get Halo3, multiplayer looks awesome. And, rate me dumb, but frag cup 2's gonna rock.
Halo OST ftw.

Bandwagon effect
I love the Halo games. Everything you can do in them just seems so...epic, whether its firing countless bullets into a mass of Flood on a planet-sized artifical ring superweapon, or launching yourself into the air to grab onto someone's Hornet and rip them out of it.
The sheer amount of bandwagon hate against the series makes me depressed, as the stories and characters are far more deep than the "hurr shoot peeple" that everyone seems to have gotten into there head.
Only bad thing Halo has introduced: regenerating health. I'm sick of no longer being able to feel the tension of rushing for that health kit with only 20 points left :saddowns: .
It's easier to make good maps for the Halo engine than it is for the source engine.
Being honest i havnt seen much band wagon effect in this forum yet and hopefully it will stay this way, Halo deservers better than the band wagon effect, the one thing more persuasive to gamers than actual game reviews
What, FP is a cesspoll of Halo hate. This thread has been quite civil, though.

It's cause Reach is right around the corner and everyone now realizes that it actually looks amazing.
