Just wondering what everyone's gut feelings about Halo Reach are. Hopefully you've seen a bit of gameplay.

With all the new mp modes and what looks to be epic single player, this game will have maybe the highest replay value/bang for your buck. On the flip side, while the new modes will be fun to play I hope there will be core Halo mp modes w/o noobtubes or power ups.

Hahaha, actually that's pretty true but there's no doubt in my mind that it'll be a fantastic game.

The only problem i have with playing H3 online is the grahpics aresub-par compared to what wehave now andI didn't really enjoy the story of the campain nor any of the campain for that matter. ODST was a joke, only rented for a few days.

If they can make this game look beautiful and have a compelling story AND have a good MP experiencelike all the games that have been coming out lately then i will very happily pick this up.

High expectations for what is going to be a very hyped game.

i would like to say first that despite my moaning i will probably still buy this game but my biggest problem is plot holes jet packs, new species, sprinting, new weapons and knife kills I mean the chances is are it will be a good game but completley ruin any story did the ability to use a knife stop when reach finaly gets it through some space time anomoly did it also downgrade theweapons before we see the master chief I see a Star Wars moment if they are not to carefull but hey when has that stopped people making a mess of a good franchise. But we will just have to wait and see.

I'm not liking the fact that its the last one. I wanted one final one with Masterchief carrying on from the end of three, where they should do what Konami should have done with Solid Snake and kill him off.

I think the game looks fantastic, and looks to improve on an already great series. I really look forward to the 40 character battles. It's awesome that they have come to a point where they can have that many characters on screen at one time.

i'm kinda excited about it. I read the cover story in game informer a few months ago and it looks like bungie is putting a lil effort into the story. I'm not looking for a five star 20 hour campaign by any stretch but i would like a 6 - 8 hour campaign thats somewhat engaging before MP.

I'm not really into the Halo universe anymore, but I'll keep my eye on it.

I enjoyed the MP video. I like the strategic attack/defend gametypes but I've learned my lesson about Halo.

Don't expect strategy in Halo. There will be like 2 people wanting to play attack/defend while hundreds of thousands want to keep playing TS. How are they not tired of TS by now? They've been playing it for nearly 10 years.

Thats the thing, there is still Halo without Masterchief. When Bungie release the game to Microsoft, Microsoft should take over with a new hero and leave Bungies games, completely move on in a new direction instead of trying to recreate more of what Bungie did. Kill Masterchief, start fresh. Halo will still live on.

Same here. I can only speculate what the final product will be, so I'm dying to know how a sandbox Halo game will be like. I'm very impressed so far, especially with improved graphics, dishing out more polygons than previous Halo games, namely Halo 3. Not that I minded running around solo in past Halo games (well, Halo 3 you're with Arbitour), I am loving the squad based action that will take place. I hate running around in a game solo like in Half-Life 2. It gave me this feeling of dread, isolation, which translate into boredom. NPC interaction and friendly A.I. is always appreciated. =) One word to sum it up, or two... - Excited and/or Hyped.
