Halo: Reach

Rotaretilbo wrote:If we always accept the mediocre bullshit developers hand us without a word, we'll never get to play good shit, and eventually, the developers will realize they can hand us pisspoor bullshit and we'll still take it. That is the current state of the industry. That is why I and many others were severely unimpressed with 95% of the stuff here at e3.

I thought E3 was shit this year, but do we have to seriously nitpick and find fault with the only thing that was even a worth a damn?

I understand pessism but for christ's sake this isn't anywhere near as bad as Halo Wars looked at E3 2008.

E3 wasn't even that bad this year. Yeah Microsofts Kinect is not impressing anyone but Nintendo won everybodys hearts this year. I don't know about Sony as I failed to see their stuff. But, I think they're have been way worse E3's.

I speak for only myself when I say, It wasn't that bad. Becasue I love Nintendo.

Halo Reach is mediocre bullshit? Ha! Nice try.

hope we all saw the firefight video "Welcome to the last day of the Rest of your Life!"

It is posted on the thread.

Ka-NEE pads?

As promised, I'm home now, and so I should be writing a big post about how angry I am with Halo: Reach and the direction Bungie is going. However, it's nearly 1:30am, and my fucking sister didn't turn off my computer like I asked (it was uploading my Dropbox and I couldn't turn it off when I left; I asked her to turn it off in an hour), so my PC has been running nonstop for the last week. My mouse is almost completely unusable, and I'm exhausted.

So for now, I'll leave you with this. You lot keep saying that we know so little about Halo: Reach, and so we shouldn't complain. I would like to contend that we know so little about Halo: Reach, and already, there are many red flags popping out. If this ratio continues, the game will be worse than I anticipated. So fuck off or apply logic to the situation. I mean, do you honestly think Bungie is going to release all the bad stuff to the press? Does that even seem possible to you, that Bungie happened to release every bad aspect of the game into a tiny tidbit of information running the length of two short trailers? Of course not! And if I'm this fucking mad over two trailers, I can't imagine what the final product will be like.

Tomorrow, if I wake up before noon, I'll write up a nice big post about all the stuff I'm upset about. I went over a handful of it with Vigil on CB today, but I'll make sure to take the time to go into the full weight of the argument when I post. Would have posted earlier, but GamersVerse news takes precedence. That is, after all, what got me into e3.

GET CRAZY WITH THE COVENANT!

Since they've done a pretty good job at making the Elite game play a unique experience, maybe they intend on making a Covenant firefight, where you face off against wave after wave of UNSC units.

Possibly, I think it'll with be UNSC only though

We'll find out a bit more on Bungie day.

Woo! Post number 1000 in this thread!
That is all.

That would be so cool. Seeing as how this is Bungie's last Halo game, I don't think it's too far out of the question. I mean GoW3 is going to have that with Beast mode.

To have the entire package with Reach as far as the way the modes can be played such as the way you suggested and many others, it only makes sence. Hopefully it happens, but as Vigil said too let's not set our hopes "too" high.
