I'm personally not buying the legendary edition just for the statue, and armor. I don't need armor to play well. (well, that is, when I get used to the weapons again.) I personally used the AR alot in Halo 3. Hearing that it was nerfed saddens me. (I missed beta). However, I like the edition of sprint, because sometimes regular walkspeed isn't fast enough.

Only 7 more days until it gets released and it feels like an eternity. So what mode are you guys going to play first when you get your hands on Reach? I'm going to play Campaign so I don't get the ending spoiled for me like Halo 3.

7 days of eternity is RIGHT! i cant wait to get the game and jump in to multi or forge

I never got the big deal about Halo actually... its a great game and everything, but I think its reputation is a lot better than the game really is. Dont think I hate Halo though, I think its just overrated. But I still look forward to trying it out.

So in essence, If I was planning on buying a 360 this is the game to buy? This game will be better than CoD? I ask because I have been toying around with the possibility of getting one.

whoot whoot best game of 2010 fixed my xbox im allready to go halo beat all h3 and h3odst on legendary im ready

The game can be better than CoD, but it's all up to what the player prefers to play. Personally I like CoD's single player better, as for multi-player, that's the biggest part of both games, and both are good.

If you do buy an Xbox though, it certainly is the game to buy (depending on what you like). It is over-rated at times (mostly due to people making it out to be the greatest game of all time), but it's still a fun game. Plus, it's the main reason a lot of people buy an Xbox (true or not, you have to admit a lot less people would buy the system had Halo never been made).

If you are definitely getting a 360 then you will definitely want to get this game. Not going to start a COD vs Halo debate because I think both games are great, but in truth there is more to do in Halo and more customization. In COD it's just Campaign and then Multiplayer, while in Halo there is Campaign, Multiplayer, Firefight which is a survival mode type thing, and then Forge mode which has now been upgraded through the roof so you can make essentially anything, then their is Theater to watch your recent games. Overall it depends on what interests you, if you like more modern games then COD is for you, but if you like more Sci-fi games then Halo is for you.

I'm excited for campaign but im also excited to bust some heads with my DMR. Not sure yet which will win out.

Absolutely.

Alright 6 days left and as you can see I'm starting the countdown until total awesomeness consumes us. And Skirata if you do end up getting an Xbox I recommend the new slimmer one as you'll end up saving money in the long run because the older models encounter more problems than the new one. Also I recommend getting live but it isn't necessary, but a lot of Reach's features are exclusive to Live subscribers such as Matchmaking, Custom games ( doesn't require live, but it's easier to play custom games if you do have live, Firefight matchmaking, and Campaign Matchmaking.

EDIT: 5 days in counting!

Alright I'm bumping this thread and also 4 days until the Covenant invasion of Reach begins!

2 days 9 hours 22 minutes 10 seconds . 4

If you were on Wikipedia earlier a bunch of Bungie fans went on the Sept. 14 page and edited so it said:

Births: Halo: Reach
Deaths: Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

I saw it before it was deleted and I Rofl'd so hard, but the page was vandalized so much that the mods of Wikipedia had to close down the page to outside editing.

I already have the best game of 2010 xD.

I have to say, that 360 Halo Combo looks mighty sweet.
