    Yeah, noticed that. It's in really high quality too, so it takes a bit longer to load.

    Too bad Bungie won't be inserting literary classics into Reach.

    I'm telling you, dude. It's the Charge of the Light Brigade.

    I'll be dissapointed if the ending to Reach is anything but the entire Noble Team dying

    You can either kill them off one by one or kill off them all at the end, but it's Reach. They pretty much have to.

    Noble 6 will be paralyzed by an explosion and will watch as his entire team around him is killed.

    The last one to die will be Carter, crawling towards you until he is stabbed brutally in the back by an elites energy sword, who will then descend upon your body as you weakly shoot your pistol until you are treated to a brutal scene of a sword going directly into your chest, your head then looking skyward as you see more Covenant ships going into orbit.
    Or bungie will do some stupid ending like noble six escaping from the planet in a sabre or seraph or something

    Bungie has only hinted at The Charge Of The Light Brigade

    it could be a parallel to Noble team's role on Reach, or they could have just used it because it has the phrase 'noble six' in it

    Man, Charge of the Light Brigade was depressing when one of my professors read it aloud.

    Unfortunately, I have a feeling that Bungie will spare at least Six, if not the whole team rather than kill them off.

    Easy way out would be for them to all die then. I could see Noble Six slipstreaming somewhere without directions(Cole Protocol right?) then stumpling onto COvenant shit much like GHost of Onyx.

    It's an interesting reference, and it's damn fine catch you made, but how far will they take it? Cuz Sadie was pretty fucking awesome.

    Admiral 'Manly as fuck' Whitcomb got out.

    But I would like to see if Bungie can do effective death scenes. Because lol Miranda.

    I think Fred, Kelly, Halsey, Will, and Whitcomb would disagree.

    Personally, I don't think that they'd have to kill off Noble Team to make a good story for Reach.

    Plus, just killing them off would severely hamper the potential for continuing stories involving them. Look at all the SPARTAN-II survivors; if they'd all just died on Reach, we never would have gotten Ghosts of Onyx, arguably the best Halo novel written thus far. Imagine the stories that could involve a post-Reach Noble Team.

    Other than .jpeg rape, that serves to remind us that clan support was a pretty cool thing.

    Did Microsoft ever explain why we didn't see a return of it with the 360, other than "HUR THE XBOX PROVIDES THE MOST EXPANSIVE AND STREAMLINED ONLINE SUPPORT; CLANS ARE FOR THE WEAK AND UNORGANIZED"?

    Yes, but the default Reach scheme is a better transition if you are used to bumper jumper. Melee is still RB, but instead of jump on LB, it's armor abilities. I didn't like it at first, but soon realized that being able to aim and use an armor ability was more important than being able to aim and jump at the same time.
