XBOX [OT] - HALO: REACH - Bungie says Goodbye to Halo through a ViDoc coming August 2nd!

Yes folks, let's hate Gamespot now that incapable journalists like John Davidson are a part of their editorial staff.

He's not a part of the editorial staff, gamespot's journalism will stay just as bad as always let's wait for their "review generator" template to throw out a score now

4/5 ain't bad ...Sad that metacritic took it as 8/10 lol

 

[USUF]

Hey whats up everyone?

Ofcourse i know it would be 8/10 going by the 4/5 score...Its just sad, thats all i said -_-

 

[Yasir]

it hasnt....YET.halo3 is still 94 on meta.

i must admit,i m deeply disappointed by gamesradar review...they think that this game has great multiplayer component but the SP can have different reactions to different people and not as gud as Halo3.heck they call it ODTS 2.0.i always liked geamesradar reviews for making sense with a slight humor but this time they have totally trashed a very superb game.

It might equal the score but it won't surpass it. It maybe better than Halo 3 in every way but the standard of games has been lifted quite a bit since 2007 so it should have about the same metascore in the end.

So yes tomorrow is the big day. Breaking Records?

i dono if this has been posted or not but halo veterans some bad news for u.Bungie community director Brian Jarrard confirms that, unlike previous titles, there's no additional cinematic or end-scene for finishing on Legendary difficulty.everyone sees the same last scene. seems this time we will be doing that insanely challenging Legendary for the achievement only.no worries,i still will do it some day anyway.its just a matter of getting a few days off for me but still it would had been gud if they kept the tradition.

How big is the jump in difficulty from Heroic to Legendary?

Friggin HUGe... huge!!!!! Heroic is pretty easy, but even for a halo veteran like me,ni can't complete the game on legendary, it's just too hard

So who's writing the PG review ?

its BIG...u should try any one of ur memorable fight on legendary.ul get the picture there is a reason why 100Gs are rewarded for legendary.it takes a lot of patience,planning and time to end halo on legendary.i find it a step away from impossible.ending halo3 and ODST on that difficulty is pretty much the hardest things i have done in gaming.

i just finished the game yesterday was playing on legendary but it got frustrating than fun cause i like to run and gun and thats not how it goes but finished it on heroic, i found the single player campaign kind of hollow after all the halos ive played before but i think the multiplayer will absolutely blow everything out of the water

i kind of agree with gamesradar, the single player campaign after having played it all is definitely great but not as good as halo 3s

just finished the game and hooked my 360 to Live for the 1st time and played Slayer. Boy, do i suck at halo or what. i thought beating the game on Heroic made me an ace Halo player but Daaaaamnnnnnn

Happens to all of us. I played on heroic just to realize how bad i was at Halo.

Gamespot Review

Halo: Reach is not only brimming with excellent content, but it's also bursting with possibilities. The exciting campaign, addictive Firefight mode, and dynamic competitive multiplayer make it one of the best shooters around. The extensive customization options, powerful Theater tools, and staggering Forge capabilities make it one of the most malleable and socially engaging games on consoles. And the slick menu system brings it all together with remarkable simplicity. Though its deep roots may not win over those who haven't enjoyed previous games in the series, Halo: Reach is a towering achievement that delivers an enormous amount of engaging content that players will no doubt be enjoying for years to come.

Score: 9.5

@USUF: :hm:

Why am i sensing that i said something like "I don't like Gamespot" back there somewhere? :lol:

Its good to see they still know their Halo ^_^

You got a modded console?
I mean, is it even sensible to connect 360 to Live these days?

yep, got a modded one, and i am very well aware of the consequences, but Reach is a game worth getting banned for

 

[Shyber]

And how many PGers are planning on going to Reach online?

 

[Chandoo]

Gamespot review generator on the job again

 

[Necrokiller]

The generator was too generous, no?

 

[Gizmo]

And how many PGers are planning on going to Reach online?

I am, It's the reason I got a new console.
