May rent it. Never got through Halo 3 and disliked the multiplayer beta on the ODST disc

Hmmm…

 

Passed on ODST (borrowed it instead), been in the fence about this one.

If there's enough MLG'ers online I'd be there, especially if the co-op's better integrated.

Looks like its already out there..

 

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/tech…..y-11068753

Microsoft is investigating how one of the most hotly anticipated Xbox titles of the year appeared on the net three weeks ahead of its official release.

 

Outside of the actual game, it looks to have some good features…notably the multiplayer shizzle.

They´re not exactly investigating how it got leaked.

It was on the marketplace at 99.999 MS Points / prepaid code needed on top of that.

(they gave prepaid codes to reviewers so they could download a copy, same as they did with Crackdown 2)

A bunch of "hackers" managed to get around that somehow and dl it.

And it´s only playable by people with "Jtag´d" consoles.

Gotta try and not have the story and ending spoiled/ruined by those people. Wouldn´t be the first time.

Sorry, back on track….yes, I will be jumping on this.

Sure, I might be caught up in all the hype, but there is going go be some fun to be had!

MLG Private games of Halo 3 "Pink on Brown" were great fun.

Let the good times roll.

The story? People care about the story? Bunch of space marines shoot some aliens or big circle makes universe pop. Oh no?! That's the entire story of the past three games. I don't think Halo ODST had a story. Rescue a girl from a city the end.

Never really paid any attention to the story lines of any Halo game but ive still enjoyed them.Must say though that Halo Reach is looking great..Forge world is looking awesome and now that Firefight has matchmaking, which you can also play as the Covenant,this is looking like the best Halo yet.Bet this gets 10/10 in Edge aswell.

For some reason I have the Legendary edition of this pre-ordered? Guess I just like statues? 

I never enjoyed 2 and 3 as much as I felt I should. I absolutely hate the Flood. Have not followed any previews of this at all. And thought the beta was just OK.

Here's hoping it's good! Thumbs Up

I'm definitely picking it up.  I've enjoyed all the Halo SP games and still think Halo 3 is the best online shooter there is.  With al the improvments to mp and firefight, this may keep me busy for a good number of months

How it's gonna finish!!! It's a prequel so let me guess…… The planet will be glassed, then they'll move onto a big ring and have a bit of a fight on there, they've already told you what happened to Reach in previous games.

Had mine dispatched this morning smile Cannae wait for this. Never ended up getting ODST despite me being a big Halo fan, just never felt the urge. So excited for Reach though, and the new add-ons in multiplayer are going to be brilliant!

So whats everyone going to be playing 1st? i.e, single player, co op, online mp or firefight?

 

For me, I think it will be a mixture of all.  Although i'm looking forward to everything about the game, i'm especially looking forward to Firefight as I enjoyed it in ODST, although it was let down with no online match making when non of your friends on your list were not playing.  Really glad this has been adressed in Reach.
