Halo Reach Limited Edition is not for the “average” gamer, but more for all knowing fans. If you're a die hard Halo fan then maybe consider the Legendary Edition but Bungie estimates that it could cost $200+. I'm an all knowing halo fan on the verge of Halo crazy but I'm sticking to Legend due to the fact that the difference between the two is a few dolls and an online ability.
Halo: Reach is shaping up to be a fitting finale to Bungie's Halo saga.
Although certainly not the last in the franchise, it is for Bungie last and
they're certainly planning on going out with a bang.
The Single Player looks to be captivating and action packed, with the amazing
amount of variety in gameplay that the Halo series is well known for. The
Covenant look threatening on their weapons lethal. All in all, an exciting
experience.
Multiplayer is where the game really shines, especially in the customability in
your armour and, with the addition of Forge World, the maps you play on. This
ensures a ton of replay value, enough to keep you playing for years to come.
For a price less than Modern Warfare 2's release RRP, this is really a game you
cannot afford to miss out on.
Wow what a prequel. Was very impressed at how much they put into this game as far as weapons, Armour and vehicles were concerned. For instance; you now have the option of playing as a female, changing your voice and customizing your Armour pieces to make your spartan fully unique. Not to mention the wide variety of new weapons like the ‘DMR’ which is a human single shot rifle that packs a punch and the needle rifle, capable of ripping through shields. They have introduced Armour abilities into the game, which you pick up much the same as equipment. Except they give you cool feats such as ‘sprint’ for a burst of speed, ‘Armour lock up’ for temporary immunity and my personal fave, ‘Jet Pack’ which is self explanatory. Multiplayer is great too, I was glad to see that they have brought back Ascension! They have also greatly improved the ‘Forge’ world, making it so much easier to create your own map. Campaign was pretty good too with the new ‘Assassination’ trick, useful against elites which are much smarter now and tend to avoid danger, yet another thing making this game so great. In my opinion don't waste any more time, if you're a halo fan then look no further, well done Bungee, 5/5 great job!
Giant multiplayer maps the armour powers system is neat addition to the game the fire fight is awesome and this being the last halo game it really went out with a bang.
If you are a true fan of the Halo Realm then it is definately worth it to spend that little extra, the Black Box is full of information that opens your eyes to so much more and makes everything click.
WARNING
DO NOT SKIP THE CREDIT. Trust me, you will not be dissapointed.
Better and cheaper getting this then buying the game itself at most stores and the diary has a lot of cool stuff to read about
I love this game, it goes well with the story and now I understand what happened before the first Halo. The online mutiplayer is epic and also the forge world map is just amazing. I would recommened to anyone whos a Halo fan must get it!
The story is going to grab you by the neck, bring you up and then drop you down again and again! We can finally find out what happend before everything else.
Forge is fantastic with the huge map and amount of new tools and areas to explore. Everything that made making maps in Halo 3 has been taken out and replaced by great tools.
Firefight now has versus, attack your spartan friend with the help of some funny grunts!!! Firefight is now completly customizable, you can evn change what type of enemies come at you!
Multiplayer, after playing the beta I know for a FACT that this is good, evry thing bad has been removed and armor ablities make online twice has fun.
Yeah I've played the multiplayer beta and found it rather quite good, the graphics look nice, the weapons were good.. All in all I'd give it 4/5
Great story and awesome online. The armoury is great and I like how you and customise your own character
This game is amazing and great for any gamer. The limited edition is very cool, I would advise every to spent that little bit more and get this limited edition, you wont be disappointed
This package is a absolute great bundle of entertainment.Hours of fun and entertainment while using the game and reading the diary and looking at the images aswell.Great collectors edition bundle!
I am very pleased with both the product and the service. With all the collectable stuff this comes with it is a must-buy for true Halo fans.
The best game I've played by far. So much customization to make your spartan your own!. Never get bored of this.. So many game types so much variety!.
Recommended For All !.. Youth and Old.
Best game of the decade hands down
Harder foes, many gameplay options, awesome graphics, more of everything. If you have enjoyed any of the previous Halo editions then this package wraps them all into one really great experience. Buy this software…
Everything has a beginning and an end, This game exceeds expectations, but also is a nice way to close out the series of halo games, by understanding what happened prior to the discovery of Halo 1, I cant wait to see what Bungie comes up with next.
The Halo reach limited edition is awesome – not only did I get the very last bungi created Halo (as far as I'm aware), but it came with all this really cool stuff – iron on patches, pass key, Dr Halsey's journal which a really interesting read for me (I love the books the story is awesome). Even contained in an ONI black box!! looks cool!! This edition is definately a great one for Halo enthusiasts, great price too… Don't think I'll actually be using the iron patch though ....... Bit too cheesy .....
As a campaign diehard I was a little disappointed at how short the campaign was, simply because the Halo series has been the most epic game on XBOX ever but the story is still true to the series. And for those who love your online action there's no doubt that Reach will take up hours and hours of time you should be studying or working but in no way is it a waste of time enjoy.
Halo Reach is literally what the first Halo game (Halo Combat Evolved) intended to be. Combat Evolved. This game takes halo to a whole new dimension with it's beautifully crafted setting, to it's wonderful and sad story line.
The gameplay is what you would normally expect from a Halo game so getting back into it isn't that hard, the controls are easy to pick up (even my mother worked out the controls). But what truly astounded me was the space combat which I was to be honest a bit effy about but once I had a go I was hooked.
The Story is flawless, fans finally get to understand the true extent of what happened before Halo CE and how Reach fell. The characters in the game are just amazing, my favourite character is Jorge, he is so lovable.
Multiplayer is a whole new experience, with extensive forging and new* firefight options Halo Reaches multiplayer takes you on a pretty brilliant path of destruction. Your custom character is the same character you control in the campaign which to me makes this game just that much more personal. The new armory allows you to fully create your own spartan but however lacks the same ability to do so for the Elites.
So if you're still wondering whether or not to buy Halo Reach then yes I would highly recommend it just because you don't need to play halo 1,2,3,ODST,WARS, to understand the story because well this is where the legend began.
Still not convinced? Then check out Youtube for videos or even visit the Bungie website www.bungie.net
This game is the man. Awesome multiplayer, and campaign. The limited edition is packed full of other goodies which is a great deal for the price. But I would only recommend if you are into the Halo fiction. Really happy with it.
Bungie's final installment to the Halo franchise. Halo Reach, set before the events of Halo one follows the heriocs of an elite team of Spartans. Noble Team. This game is the culmination of everything great about Halo. The newly improved multiplayer, firefight, forge mode and epic storyline…awesome!. I played the beta, amazing visuals and game play. Halo Reach limited edition includes many interesting extras including the most up to date records of Doctor Halsey's ( The brains behind the spartan program.) journal. Definitely a game worth getting!.
Really fun game but might ape sent me a faulty disk so I can't play most of the game.
Ever since Halo Reach was announced last year December, i got really excited
about this and it is looking pretty awesome!
I played the beta straight away after it was released and it was damn
awesome!
I would like to say that Bungie has created the best Halo game i ever seen
after announcing all the very cool details througout the year about the enhanced
multiplayer, epic campaign and etc.
I hope this will not be the last Halo game in the series because i believe
there will be more Halo titles to come in the near future.
Rating = 5/5
Pros
This game looks to be one of the biggest and best of 2010 with loads of customisation options. excellent multiplayer and what looks like a suberb campaign. Mighty ape has an excellent price for this game with some other place selling limited edition for $150.
