Halo: Reach

Went up a few weeks ago for reviewers to download with a code provided by Microsoft. Probably the first and last time they put games out for review via games on demand. Hackers had it almost instantly and started leaking stuff. I'd like to know if it's even possible to have that many Microsoft points underneath your account at that time/if you could even purchase it.
Yeah the only version that was leaked a few weeks ago could only be played on Jtag boxes up until last night when a retail copy was leaked. Its all over the place now, but thats cool because I would imagine that over half of those people can expect a gamertag ban very soon :)

Game Informer gave this a 9.5. I don't believe there are any scans yet. The review embargo is September 11th at 9:00 pm PST so the floodgates should be open tomorrow for some more 9s and 10s.

Halo 3 seems so slow post-Reach beta. Things will never be the same again.

Is the speed quicker on this game? I haven't followed it at all. Never cared for the speed of Halo games. I'll give this one a try if they have changed it up a bit.

Doc they do have Sprint as one of your equipment options you can pick up..other than that i couldnt tell a big difference..

It's the same unless you're using the armor ability which allows you to sprint. The Elites also have some pretty cool evasive maneuvers that make those games pretty fun. The armor abilities really seem to add a good bit to the multiplayer so I'm excited.

The firefight mode has so many options..you can change basically everything from having a bottomless clip for ammo...to what enemies and their attributes in each wave you are fending off..

I like FPS's where the one who shoots and hits an opponent first, usually wins. Halo's flashlight tag style play wears on me.

It's a lot more run and gun than the COD-style gameplay. The ease of getting kills in COD leads to a lot more camping, but it is certainly much more realistic. My biggest gripe with COD lately is that it has become literally impossible to get in a game that isn't already in progress. Halo doesn't have that, you always get matched into a game before it begins. It's VERY annoying to get thrown into a game that 5 other people have quit because the enemy has a harrier, and 2 choppers in the air. :banghead2:
