Halo:Reach is a game with fantastic multiplayer, and a great campaign. Although sometimes frustrating due to its difficulty, it moves along quite orderly. The campaign is definitely long enough, and has some interesting level design. Objects in your path act as if they were real cover points. One particular thing i did not like about the campaign is that enemies seem to be almost always the same, not a lot of variety when it comes to the covenant. Although, there are new races that fight in the covenant in this new game, but they are not too different from previous covenant soldiers. Also, enemies can seem tougher than in previous games. Although new weapons can easily destroy these hostiles. New additions such as the concussion rifle can pummel through an enemy's health after only a couple of shots.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The story in Halo:Reach is just as good as in the other Halo games, although Master Chief fans may be disappointed because this game features no story surrounding chief solely. But, in firefight, you can use John 117's voice. Which is pretty amusing. Another addition to this game is armor abilities. These abilities can vary from jetpacks, armor lockups, and sprint. Obviously, the jetpack is the most noticeable one and the most fun one. In multiplayer, the jetpack is a BLAST. (No pun intended) Maneuvering away from enemies with this is pretty hard but this gadget can do other wondrous things, such as save you from a falling death or more kill points when you fly over crippled enemies.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The armory is one of my most favorite additions, instead of earning armor in complicated ways, you can unlock and buy the armor using in-game credits earned from playing multiplayer matches or the campaign. Buy new armor pieces and customize the pieces with specific details and color.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In conclusion, Halo:Reach combines all the great things about FPSs and combines them together in one carnage-filled pack. Improved multiplayer and gameplay makes Bungie's last Halo game, rise above the previous ones.
