not realize you've left to go on your next mission or, my personal favorite, get locked behind a blast shield because they apparently didn't notice it closing.
I wonder if he meant Noble team or marines. Because if its marines it sounds more like scripted events where the game wants you to continue on alone.
I'll just say that all of the detail and effort put behind the supplementary material in the Limited Edition is absolutely fucking amazing.
The fact that I'll have it all, physically, brings me so much joy. And boners.
EDIT: Also, I got to handle the black box at work tonight and it's fucking awesome, too. I expected something kind of weak (for whatever reason, I wasn't thinking clearly) and it's hard plastic and BIG.

N6, i can agree with you on that.
Wish i had gotten Limited now.
Plus, the box is hard plastic? Reminds me of the Spore collector's edition box, which was....I don't even have a word to describe it.
Wangtastic, perhaps.
Even though the game sucked.
And to think, for the 3 months I've had it on pre-order I thought it would be cardboard. I'm not sure why I thought that but it makes it even better, and these last days even harder.
Yes thank you that joke's only been been old for a few months now. They are making like 10% the number of Legendary editions for Reach that they did for Halo 3, so it is not going to sit around forever like that.
Every single time I look at my Mark VI helmet on my bookshelf, I realize how much I don't regret it. It started my love affair with absurd collector's editions, as I love bonus material.
Especially if it's Halo related. Anything that adds more chapters to the encyclopedia in my head is a great thing.
I have no idea about the seller. Not Prime eligible, but I know Amazon takes sellers extremely seriously, so I can't imagine they'd be unscrupulous with as much positive feedback they have.
Why does tuesday have to be so far away. I timed everything really badly and now my new screen, Reach and my internet speeding up all happens on the same day.
Since its a campaign review, I can't really blame them. Halo has always had a fun campaign, but the meat of the game is the multi.
It's still a dumb review.
The review suggests they incorporate a MW2 control scheme to help those players transition over. Namely letting you press left trigger to aim down the sights and something about letting you sprint as well.
You don't aim down the sights like in MW2, so...that's dumb.
Also he said the jetpack is the best thing about MP...which is funny.
This is one of the worst reviews I've seen for any game. Poorly written, I mean.
Doesn't seem like this guy really knows what he's talking about.
I enjoyed reading your infraction history, Viscountalpha, but it makes me think you might need to take things on internet message boards a little less seriously. Just a passive, constructive suggestion.
I find myself torn as to whether I'm going to start the Campaign on Legendary, or save that playthrough for co-op with my friends. Also, I don't know if I want to jump straight into Firefight before I even start the campaign. If this were twitter, I would tag this complaint #firstworldproblems.
Fuck, once Reach launches, getting together Firefight games setup is gonna go from "hard" to "impossible".
Unless you are playing Reach Firefight... then you are going to be able to find someone with matchmaking very easily.
If the 10 year olds break the game I will firefight erryday.
I'm almost predicting that it may turn out like Gears 2, where me and everyone I know just plays the cooperative Firefight matchmaking until the end of time. Having a bad night? Just pop over to Firefight and let off steam..

Bringing up peoples infraction history isnt a good way to make friends.

At least he hasn't started pretending to be an AI yet.
I'm not a big fan of Kotaku, but I couldn't help but read their review.
So far nothing but praise. A couple AI issues but then again I suppose that's to be expected.

I was going through a stressful time in my life. Relapse + losing my apartment. Not a fun time. I lost stuff and "data" but that's neither here nor there. I will say that i think my infraction history is actually fairly entertaining as they go.

Those AI issues may not even be issues. Marines have been scripted to leave you to go on alone in past halo games so that could be whats happening.

Seems like few if any spoilers.
"Unquestionably the best of the Halo games"
But it doesn't matter because CoD4,WaW, all run in 600p and nobody seems to care.
And since the vast majority of people are playing in 480i anyway, it didn't really matter
No, it's clean. I actually find GB reviews to be my favorite of any major games site, but some people have a problem with Gerstmann.

I like to watch their Quick Looks for games I am curious about but there's no way I'd do that for Reach.

Is HubbaGames a reliable seller? At $40 I might grab one of these for the hell of it.

No, but before you say something incredibly stupid, you should read whats already been posted in the thread.
10% means not enough to go around. People are already paying stupid prices for the flaming helmet code. Ebay has them ending from 50$ to 100+$

That is the worst offender i've seen so far.
Halo 3 legendary edition was a huge mistake. I think they've corrected it for the most part.

It's insane.

I was linking a download of PDFs of that and all the other documents in Limited earlier.
Want me to PM it to ya?
Thirty-nine pages in, it hasn't.
I'm almost predicting that it may turn out like Gears 2, where me and everyone I know just plays the cooperative Firefight matchmaking until the end of time. Having a bad night? Just pop over to Firefight and let off steam..

Also I am buying the 150$ version of the game, so reading a review is probably a lost cause for me at this point.
At least he hasn't started pretending to be an AI yet.
Oh? Firefight is in Reach? Neat.
Though I would like to get a few more 'o 'dems ODST cheevements someday I guess.

Holy shit, the AR is fucking terrible in Halo 1, and all the guns are pretty different/worse in Halo 2 as well.
Those AI issues may not even be issues. Marines have been scripted to leave you to go on alone in past halo games so that could be whats happening.
