Considering blackops is the same game as COD MW2, COD WAW, and COD MW, why pay 60$ for the same game 4 times in a row?

IMO after trying the beta of Medal of Honor its even worse than COD, and i think cod is BAD

Ill probably buy Halo Reach. I doubt I will buy Black Ops though, but I'll see.

Treyach: Yea, here another fps game. Go play it,= me going to be rich! I just saying just another fps game with a short not a strongcampagin, hopefully a zombie mode, and multiplayer that's it.

Halo Reach: Look Halo Reach needs to be good and needs to rise like back in the old days when Halo 2 was out, Halo 2 boosted the community big time.

I'm getting both btw.

ill buy both anyway. something tells me that they have learned their lesson from previous MW2( which i still dont understand why ppl hate). i guess MW2 was a lil unfair and unbalanced and plus there were cheaters which i never encountered. all in all, i think black ops wont make the same mistake. as for Reach..... do i even have to answer?

Black Ops looks like they could be taking a different step into COD. But i could be dead wrong. I'll wait for reviews with Black Ops. Reach doesn't excite me as much as Halo 3 and ODST did.

I will get Reach 100%. I'm into sci-fi shoter not real war basaed games. Also in new black ops MP you can see 10 meters double hand attack---they learned nothing from MW2. so no black ops for me.

Even after watching the MP trailer for Black Ops, I'm still more excited for Reach mainly because this is the last Halo game coming from the guys that made Halo what it is, and Black Ops is just like the annual sports games updates that EA and 2K puts out.

I'm getting both.

Reach to replace Halo 3.

Black Ops to replace CoD4.

I'll keep the disc but toss out the cases, I rarely play them much. (still need help with Halo 3 achievements - skulls, meta-game, etc.)

With Black Ops you get a decent 7-8 hours campaign and a fun-ish MP which I'd stop playing in a month. There's just much more to do in Halo: Reach.

True words.

Black Ops will probably only be 5 hours or so.

I think that we have just about seen all that Call of Duty can offer. And even though people may say that the multiplayer will keep people playing i reckon that the forge options on reach will keep people playing for years. But call of duty will only last until the next one comes out.

Does either game have bots for offline multiplayer? And does COD have splitscreen multiplayer/co-op?

The game that has both these features I will purchase. If not, then rentals

As much as I hated MW2 I might rent black ops to see if it's any better. Maybe because it has zombies will sway my choice. However I'm definitely getting reach.

I'm getting both. I'm looking forward to Reach more though because I haven't played a halo game since 3 a couple years ago. By the way, both games are available for pre-order on Amazon and they give you a $20 gift card to use on their site once the game ships. Pre-order both games from there and get free $40 to spend. That's what I did. On top of this, if you're currently a college student, they will give you a free year of Amazon Prime. This means you can get free release-date delivery. All you need is your student email. Free release-date shipping, no tax, free $40. What can possibly be better than that?

Im getting both but for arguments sake you get more features and longevity with Reach. after the black ops campaign your just left with multiplayer. I can play around with Halo forge and firefight mode all day. also, you can bring your friends online in split screen in Reach.

Neither. Halo died for me when Halo 3 came out, they took the charming simplicity, threw it away and unbalanced the game. And, not getting Black Ops, because I'm not going to support Kotick's Toupé, I know they'll earn a hefty revenue, but I feel good enough not supporting them.

how is halo 3 unbalanced

definetly reach it has so much more to offer

the only thing that black ops has to offer is crappy multiplayer and zombies which is the only reason i will buy the game after i saw that new trailer

Halo Reach. Bungie claims that they saved the best for last, and from the looks of it, they did.
