It is currently my favorite shooter, no doubt about it. I am still looking forward to Black Ops, Killzone 3, Homefront, Crysis 2 and Brink, but I don't think they will top Reach for me.

[QUOTE="campzor"]cause its better then the 2010 game.waltefmoney

Nah. BTW, have you played Reach?

ive played halo 3..and from what ive heard from ppl on these boards and reviewers it plays like reach..and if thats true then... dont make me laugh as saying its the best fps... even videos on youtube look like halo 3 (besides graphics obviously ) have u played counter strike 1.6? A console fps is lackluster compared to one on the pc... now.. maybe if this was best fps on consoles...u may have a case...but its not..

It's a good game no doubt but I still prefer Counter-Strike: Source over it.

Ever since I got halo reach. I have never been able to put it down. I'd say its the only fps shooter I will ever need for the rest of this generation. It has so much replay value. I dont think I will need to come back to system wars ever again because halo reach won the war for me.

slipknot0129
i wouldn't say its the best, its certainly THE best halo game ever, i mean halo reach is epic and badass, and i hated the other halos but reach blows them into oblivion. to bad for single console owners and fanboys who wont experience this superbly polished game that shows clearly why xbox knows what they are doing. i think the best FPS is still Modern warfare 2.

Do you mean on consoles only or overall?

Cuz if you mean overall it would be kinda hard to take you seriously.

Honestly? Its the only halo game after the first that is actualy decent. It is my opinion that after all those years, they finally made a good fps that can compete with other fps in terms of game quality and technology.

i agree. i find myself going to my friends house just so i can play reach. it will probably make me get another 360 even though i promised myself i would never get another one.the campaign has been great but kind of predictible (damn those skybox's are awesome) and i wanna play it in a mode other then co-op. but multiplayer is about the most perfect ive played and the best since quake 3 arena and the original halo. the only game that really comes close this gen is TF2 and killzone 2.

cant believe people are throwing counter-strike (buy a gun, meet opposite team in the same place over and over again, shoot, repeat) and left 4 dead (just a game mode in every other shooter but valve calls it a full game) into this post. reach kils them and makes you realize what little game is there.

I would say it is. The multiplayer is amazing. Along with the new campaign which is EPIC and throw in firefight you have a game you can play for YEARS. Anyone that is a fan of shooters and not playing this game is seriously missing out.

It's certainly up there in the top three for sure; easily -- by a wide mile -- the best shooter on consoles.

I will say Halo Reach is a fun game (and this is coming from a guy that used to bash Halo alot) but best FPS? I'd say that belongs to Bioshock for this gen but it all depends on preference. I have MW2 but I don't touch it anymore because I found it boring after awhile. I have BC2 which I came back to even after playing Reach because it has a different feel to it. To each his own I suppose, I just prefer to have a variety of shooters to mess around with. Going to be getting MOH and KZ3 when they come out too :P.

Because Reach had such a fantastic and original campaign with a unique story and believable characters? It's a sad fact, but a fact none the less that FPS games are all about mutliplayer these days.

Unfortunately this seems true as I'm playing through Reach. I'm not paying for XBL so kinda bummed at my purchase right now.

Sure sure buddy. By youtube videos?

I find it very hilarious that you console fps's are luckluster compared to pc. Also the fact you find a 10 year old multiplayer only game with 2 gamemodes better then is very ammusing to me. Counter strike is so repetitive it just gets unbarable. TYPICAL CS GAME:

Presses 8 then 2 for kevlar and helmet in the buy menu, hmmm, I feel like using a m4a1, press 4 3. Pulls out knife to run faster to one of two bomb sites. I think I will try my luck and go to THIS particular bomb site. If you see them come around the corner shoot and attempt head shot, you take a couple down, bla bla bla. Next round.


RINCE AND REPEAT. CS = YAWN.

And what about the other fps shooters on pc? Lol what fps games? UT 2004 which has no-one online? And crysis, which totally blows? Seriously your fanboyism is just through the roof. PC is good for better multiplats (most of the time) but you are just going over the top with this one.

You are a hermit for bringing a 10 year old YAWWWNN repetitive game into this. Man I realy feel like spewing after thinking of the repetitiveness of counterstrike.... And do you know what an argument is? You probably don't.

no a hermit worships the pc and everything it has to offer... i am merely sharing my view that cs an eleven year old game has a far better lasting appeal probably due to it being so good and all the mods and user made stuff the community has created... i doubt ppl will be playing reach in 10 years time.

sillaris

I am a long time pc gamer ever since the first CS, which I own and demolish whole teams. And I can argue that Reach takes MORE skill. Your 'shields' argument is actualy going to work against you here. The shields mean you have to shoot your opponent several times with accurate head shots to get the kill. Also in CSS you can still spam the trigger and get lucky kills most of the time. The shields also mean you can't get cheap shotted from behind. You have not played Reach or Halo 3 much and do not understand how the game works, so don't try and argue with someone that knows more abou the game then you. You will just get owned.

[QUOTE="campzor"] im not a hermit and i also brought it into the 'argument' :|campzor

You are a hermit for bringing a 10 year old YAWWWNN repetitive game into this. Man I realy feel like spewing after thinking of the repetitiveness of counterstrike....

no a hermit worships the pc and everything it has to offer... i am merely sharing my view that cs an eleven year old game has a far better lasting appeal probably due to it being so good and all the mods and user made stuff the community has created... i doubt ppl will be playing reach in 10 years time.

Alot of people are still playing halo 1 and still halo 2. Even after reach, halo 3 still has around 700,000 players each day. Most people probably WON'T be playing it in 10 years, because the next gen will come. Even so there will still be thousands of people online, but this is not for us to judge.
