Is Halo:Reach the most feature-packed shooter this gen on consoles?

Yes easly, with Orange Box

PAL360

Orange Box is more like a compilation pack of shooters, a "best hits", if you will. Not saying that's bad, but I have to say, if it wasn't for Portal and TF2, it wouldn't have been as good.

No multiplayer bots = failed AI that wasn't good enough to simulate real players. Especially considering how simplified Halo's gameplay is.

Bots don't simulate real players at all. I have played most of the games with bots, and at higher difficulties, they are more cheap than challenging. I kinda agree that we need bots in Halo, but we will have to see. We don't know everything about Reach yet. Bungie may have included bots in the game, we just don't know.

Still an incredibly complete compilation for a price of 1 game.

But i agree with this topic. Reach will be massive :D

Yeah, I saw it, but Bungie have been on record to say that they have added extra bits of duplicate code, so to fool anyone who's been looking in the Hex editor.

Most feature packed shooter ever I guess, let alone on consoles. Im still missing the godamn epic "Campaign Styled Multiplayer" where 1 team defends on large/new maps" ect... but it seems developers deem this too complex these days.Birdy09

Yeah, I mean, the only game that has that is Resistance 2, but that kinda sucks on all other fronts...

Reach is said to have the Generator Defense multiplayer mode inFirefight, where a team of 4+ have to defend 3generatorsagainst waves of covenant

Oops i think i confused Most featured with best shooter... because i thought KZ3 would be it...

And yes Halo reach will be te most feature-packed shooter this gen on consoles...

RTS bots play nothing like players.... they just pre-define build orders and send stuff into your base for the *most* part.Birdy09

Shame that a lot of the features add nothing to the overall experience.

CentricStorm

Different strokes for Different folks, I guess. I think that every feature in Reach will be used equally, without any redundant ones. Also, try to list down the ones which you feel add nothing to the experience, and say why?

Like I posted before, Orange Box is 5 inherently different games, put inside one box. As a package? Metric **** of features. But each game counts separately, and if you look at that, then Halo:Reach wins.

best game ever

^^Going to think of something crazy here, but hang with me for a second Maybe, just maybe what gamespot played at E3 was more refreshing than the shooters that were at E3. I mean surely playing the game will give you a more reasonable understadning of the game than looking at a picture from some dudes blog? Just crazy theory I had [spoiler] for the record. I also found it wierd because to me Killzone 3 looks like Killzone 2. That said I'm not going to argue against someone who has played the game when I haven't [/spoiler] jg4xchamp

'there always needs to be something new and exciting to keep players interested, but Killzone 3 seems to be going the extra mile with the inclusion of new flying vehicles, such as the minigun-armed Intruder hovercraft and the Helghasts' mounted jetpack'

I just highly disagree. The jetpack they demo'd was cool. The flying vehicle section with the mini-gun was cool, but how many games have done that? I can think of three which have already done it this year alone.

If they thought Killzone 3 was the best shooter at the show that's their call, i wasn't there. Nothing about it which has been shown to the press however elicits new and refreshing to me, and i thought it was just-plain silly to cite an on-rails mini gun section as an example of supposedly new and exciting gameplay.
