Is there anybody out there who is NOT playing Reach for one reason or another? If so, why?

I'm not playing Reach because I didn't have interest in the game...until now. Unfortunately I don't have 60 buck to spend, and neither was I lucky enough to be able to attend PAX to try to win the console. Plus I got Sonic Adventure to play tomorrow, and another game on another platform.

I don't know, I really do not want to get it becuase I'm a MMORPG fan and am waiting for FF14. So, I know I won't have time to play it once I get into that.

Not playing it right now because I am at work. This situation will be corrected in about 6 hours (I hope)!

I'm not a huge shooter fan, but after all the great reviews, I need to play this puppy.

I know that Halo is a great series and people really enjoy it but after disapointment with Halo 3 and ODST. I dont think Reach is for me.

Waiting for Dead Rising 2 instead.

Not buying this one having been a bungie faithful since Marathon, just don't have the time anymore to make the online worth it. I might borrow it for the single-player though since I have been hearing pretty good things.

Me. I've been sick of shooters for a couple of years now, and more Halo isn't going to get me back into it.

Mot playing and probably never will. I missed out on the first 2 Halo games (had a PS2). So when I had the chance to play Halo 3 I jumped at it and try as I might I just couldn't get swept up into the Hsalo frenzy that people were in. Just picked up a copy of Splinter Cell Conviction and Toy Story 3 (laugh if you must). So I will be playing those while others play Reach. Other reason is I barely have time to play single player games let alone find time to go online and play. So that was another strike against it for me.

I'm not, at least not right away. I'm sure it'll be a great game and I've liked the other Halo games, but online multiplayer-focused FPS games are starting to feel Madden-esque to me. I'm burned out on them. I haven't seen anything yet to make me think that Reach isn't more of the same, as good as it may be. I feel like I've played the game already even though I haven't touched it. Maybe I'm way wrong and it will turn out to be something special, but I'm becoming less and less interested in forking over money for what is basically the same stuff every year with a few tweaks. Reach and Black Ops are the flavor of the year now, and next year it'll be something else, but it'll still feel like I've played it all before.

Why don't you make her stay so you can own her in the game? Also I'm not that much of a fan either. Lately every season its just more of the same, especially with FPSs. I'll bet this will receive gold marks for taking down those who answered the Call of Duty to play in a Modern Warfare against each other. Scratch that, make that 2 Modern Warfares. Get it? Lol.

I've never liked the Halo games so I'm not playing it. I bought The Saboteur today though and have been playing that. Really good fun and underrated I think. On a side note, I noticed in both HMV and GAME today there were a large number of copies left. So either it hadn't been as popular as believed or all the buyers weren't out of school yet as it was before 3pm. :)

Well I don't have that problem with my game. And I haven't heard of rampant reports of this issue for Reach in particular. Disk read errors on the 360 are almost always hardware related.

Its only if you have an early/release console. Its a result of software/hardware incompatability

Couldn't care less for the Halo series, for the FPS genre for that matter. Halo bored me ever since the first game, the FPS genre bored me a decade ago and still bores me. The only FPS I can be bothered to play is Borderlands since it does something a little different from the majority of shooters - allows a choice of gender for the character you play as, and it makes a difference due to the different skills of each character.

I'm more interested in Fallout: New Vegas, Fable 3 and the re-release of Divinity 2: Ego Draconis. At least they'll, hopefully, last me a good while.
