And I'll say the same thing to you that I say to everyone that complains about the "realism" of Halo. You're complaining about the realism of a game that takes place on the other side of the galaxy with genetically engineered super solders fighting an army of aliens with plasma weapons. What exactly are you expecting?
Depends on what kind of fps you like better. If you like military shooters, get mw2, if you like sci-fi shooters, get halo reach. If you don't like any of the previous halo games, get mw2. They both have solid single-player campaigns that are about the same length and quality and the online mutliplayer in both straight up kick ass.
Also, like the other halo games, halo does have split-screen play for every game mode, even online matchmaking, so...If you were a person looking for that, than reach would be a better choice than mw2.

MW2 is more realistic? Seriously? Its more of an arcade shooter. Reach IS realistic. Music,graphics,design,weapons,enemies everything makes you feel like your fighting. Ive played MW2 and its good, but reach is in another level.
I've played mw2 and to be honest I thought it was a step down from cod4. And I haven't played halo reach but I've seen a few gameplay videos and it looks great! If I had the choice between the two I would choose reach :)
Realism has many aspects. I think he means the fact in MW2 its closer to real life as it is now. I mean after all in MW2 you get shot 3-4 times your dead. In Reach you have shields and health and it can take quite a bit to drop an enemy. Not to mention inter-galactic space travel, aliens, the whole environment of the game is all built on sci-fi. I've never seen a soldier in MW2 zap someone with a spartan laser. I digress; no game is ultimately 'realistic' as if it was no one would want to play it. The reason we play games in the first place is to escape/change reality that we live in each day. You can argue Reach is based in the future and such but it is not more realistic according to real life than MW2. It's all based on context.
Did somebody just use the words realism and Modern Warfare 2 in the same sentence? :lol:

LOL! Yeah, saying MW2 has realistic gunplay is like calling McDonalds fine dining!!! Example being...The Barrett .50 cal is not a gun that you can tote around like a .38. That gun has to be either mounted on a tripod or some sort of staionary object.!!
I prefer Modern Warefare 2 because I like the realisim of it. By realism I mean using real world weapons and tactics as opposed to Halo's style.
Also, although I have not had too much of a problem with it in Reach (yet) Halo usually gets those kids whose like to yell and swear in their pre-pubecent voice and ruin the game for everyone.
I know, I know, thats what mute is for :)
But still, beside Forge, I think MW2 has it hands down

Halo reach MW2 shouldnt even be in its league . MW2 is a trashy shooter for trashy players who act like immature kids . not saying Halo isnt like that but i find more Relaxed chill mature gamers on Halo than MW2 . community is a s*** ton better .
lol at everyone who says MW2 is a realistic shooter, play Operation Flashpoint, then you will have an idea what a realistic shooter ischaoscougar1
haha realistic what soilders run around with Duel shottys ? let me equip my pain killer (says the marine in Afghanistan ) before we raid this house . game is so unbalanced i think what ruined it were all the killstreaks and death streaks there are too many and made the gameplay unbalanced in The original MW1 it was great but when MW2 came out its seemed like a plain crash on the multiplayer.

Halo Reach is realistic??? lol I've never heard of any human having the ability to survive/continue to run while an attacker unloads an entire clip on them. Not only that, still have the ability to turn around, throw a sticky grenade.

dude thats mw2
I was about to say that. I have yet to encounter a single kid who likes to "yell and swear in their pre-pubecent voice" in Reach. I can't say the same for MW2. Also, I don't understand why people are complaining about "realism". If you want a realistic shooter join the army. I play games for fun, !@#$ reality.
nah they're all bad. mw2 is boring,. reach is just trying to suck in more $$$$ and battlefield is just the same game over and over agian. get super monkey ball.

You can't use the words "realism" and "MW2" without putting a "not" in between them. I have yet to see an army detonate a nuke when they reach 25 kills, have yet to see someone throw a knife across the battlefield, have it bounce off objects and kill someone
mw2 sucks so bad. First all people do is camp, 2nd the community is terrible, 3rd infinity ward doesn't give a crap about their own game because they rushed it and realized a game with terribly overpowered camp spots, weapons, and air support. Bungie did an amazing job on Halo:Reach so please get your facts straight.
