[QUOTE="Archangel3371"]I loved it myself. Found the campaign very exciting and the multiplayer modes are terrific fun. Then there's the other extras like Forge and Theater. It was my overall GotY.Krystyan68

With all this negativity you wouldn't think that Reach was one of the most critically praised, commercially successful or highest profile online games of 2010!! :roll:

If you haters can't handle it, I suggest you go play Streetfighter.

PS: I think that Reach is the best in the series overall.

PS: I firmly believe Reach is the weakest Bungie Halo game. It's good, but not great. Halo: CE had a better campaign (Despite it's repetitive interior level design), Halo 2 had MUCH better maps, Halo 3 had better balance, and Halo 3: ODST was more atmospheric than Reach. Hell, I can't believe I liked ODST's campaign more than Reach.

At heart I'm a huge Halo fan, and I thought Halo 3 was kind of lacking. That being said, I played about three missions on legendary, four player system link co-op, and those three missions were some of the most intense experiences I've had playing Halo. Not even kidding. After killing just elite, people would cheer because it almost takes teamwork to down one without taking casualities. I never played Halo tactically (solo legendary was always a pain) but this time around, we were flanking, distracting jackals to open them up to our friends on the other side of the map, fighting for high ground to snipe from while some of us took vehicles in to go up close and personal. THAT is the quintessential Halo experience I've been looking for since I've played the first Halo.

I can't wait to buy a new 360 and pick up Reach for myself, though.

I never had any of these problems in prior Halo games, and trust me, I recently played them on Legendary to know. Halo: Reach is to me, the easiest Halo game. I practically breeze through it on both solo and four player co-op, just by using the overpowered DMR. I'm surprised Bungie created a rifle more godlike than the Battle Rifle. Thanks a lot Sage Merril!

This thread is clearly overrated. And generic.

Overrated and underrated are always meaningless, why? because they are just opinions

There are many words that grind my gears in this here System Wars... Overrated is definitely one of them. "Generic" is also another example :x I think every video game has been called generic by one individual or another :P

There's nothing more redundant that a "x game is overrated" or "what games do you find overrated" thread. It's where people bash other games, and cause needless flame wars over video games. It's grown to be quite annoying, because the word overrated is powerful enough to shut down valid counter-pointing or any necessary criticism. It's a meaningless, and snobby phrase for people to think they set themselves with higher standards than others. Rather to be opiniated, with valid points to back up their opinions. Most people who use the term "overrated', often don't give any good reasons to why they think x game is overrated. They even dismiss a game being overrated, without even playing it. *sigh*

I promote that, if you going to call a game overrated, give valid reasons for it. I maybe a egotistical, but at least I'm not snobbish to often use the word overrated. There are a lot of games that I believe get a lot more praise and popularity than they deserve (MGS4, Halo: Reach, GTAIV, Modern Warfare 2), but I have constructive criticism towards them than just saying the word "overrated".

Am I the the only one who's sick of "dis gaem iz overated!!!" threads? Or am I going to be flamed for saying all of this?

The next CoD. those games have been way overrated since 4

Heres why I feel this way. This is focused on the PC version of Bad Company 2. Im sure the console versions share some problems with the PC version.

DICE hasnt even fixed VOIP, the most important feature of a team based game. Its been almost a year. Admit it. How many times do you hear someone talk in-game? Once every 3 months? The hit detection is terrible as always. The defuse/plant bugs havent been fixed. TONS of people are still having disconnection issues. People ALWAYS complaining about lag in every server. If you dont believe me, go on the EA forums and youll see what I mean.

The game is fun as hell I will admit, and I play it a lot, almost daily, but there are so many problems with this game that I think it would be better off in a hands of another developer. God or whoever you believe in will have blessed us all when Valve makes their version of Battlefield. Monthly map (actual maps and not variations) releases, constant bug fixes, community updates/events.

Being the developers they are, DICE should have more than enough funding to take care of its games after release.

Love BF. Hate DICE. Thats my current stance.
