.P.S I never said I wasnt going to buy it.

Why would you buy it if you said it's pointless and laggy? If thats what it is then whats the point of even playing it. I'm not buying this game but not for those reasons.

Same thing as Halo 3. They're gonna add some things. Better graphics, You can make your own armor, new easter eggs(Skulls), New weapons/vehicles and new achivments. I heard that they're gonna add new "evil guys", and you can choose 3 characters: MC(Master chief), Alien, and something else, but I don't know if it's true or not.

or a grunt, like a super-fast, super powerful grunt.

Anyways, Im a fan of Halo, played all 3, besides Wars. I plan on getting Reach whenever it's price is acceptable. So I don't care if anyone says "You gotta get this" I'll say, sure.... then when they get it they might of wasted $60 on a $20 worth game. Dunno if that is how this turns out though. But I'll wait.

I love how you guys predit whats going to happen in a game that has little to no gameplay, and a teaser trailer. Maybe if you weren't prejudiced by the fact that the Halo series sells well and has a massive fanbase, you might enjoy the damn game. Hell, at least play the damn beta when it releases with ODST and give a valid, informed opinion.

If you read the books you'd understand the backstory and the immenseness of the Halo universe. Master Chief didn't fight on Reach by the way, he was fighting on 'Gamma Station' trying to destroy a UNSC NAV in orbit over Reach. The rest of the Spartan IIs battled on Reach. Sadly if it's based on Reach (battle fully) we won't see any Spartan IIIs. I predict this game will be basically be like Halo 1 (Combat Evolved) because Master Chief didn't get his Mark VI armour till he got back to Earth. That means a possible chance of the return of the weak shield and possible HP system (woot). Who knows they might feature some levels based on his training on Reach including some team based missions with fellow Spartans on Rebel Bases like with Kelly and Linda (I don't remember if Fred was on their first mission)

Brutes didn't appear in the Halo universe till the battle on Unyielding Hierophant with the surviving Spartans from Reach so it's possible we're going to see mostly Elites, Jackals, Grunts, and hopefully the neutral Covenant 'Engineer' that appeared in Halo: First Strike. Hunters didn't appear till like half way in the Fall of Reach lol.

Also, I don't know where you got the idea of the multiplayer of Halo lagging. It's perfectly fine. It only usually lags in BTBs with more than 14 people because there's usually one person with a shitty internet connection. Regular Slayer matches with 4v4, 5v5, and sometimes 6v6 never lag at all.

You mean to tell me that 6v6 games dont usually lag? Amazing, Xbox live is soooo worth the 50-60 dollars a year... and here i thought my 16 vs 16 Killzone 2 matches with no lag where amazing. Or MAGs 128 vs 128.

Remind me again why you pay for Xbox live when it's just using your OWN console for hosting the player-to-player games?

16v16 matches on Killzone 2 don't lag because of dedicated servers. Games like Socom prove how badly laggy peer to peer multiplayer is on the PS3 and I'm sure the Xbox 360 and PS3 have the same magnitude of problems regarding lag. Don't try to differ them. Besides even quick matches on L4D and a simple Gold Rush on Bad Company lags like shit at times.

I'm sorry but I don't recall any Xbox 360 owners barging into PS3 threads and saying how awesome they are and how the games in the thread suck. Please don't give me your bullshit if you don't even have a Xbox 360 because there's no point to an opinion if there's no experience. Basing Xbox Live over one game is really narrow minded. Besides, only a couple games actually use dedicated servers. Consoles from the very beginning have always been matched through Local Area Networks and through Client Hosting and it will stay like that for a long time. There will inevitably always be lag no matter what unless everyone suddenly upgrades to 10MB internet connections. People who really give a shit about dedicated servers usually move on to a PC and even those type of games have client hosting too.

fucking fanboys.

*P.S. $50 is nothing. You can get a damn Janitor job at Walmart and make that in one shift with the minimum wage.

1. Are you trying to make $50 sound like a lot? You can get a job at Shaws as a bagger and make that much money in about 2 weeks.

2. MAG isn't out yet so how are you supposed to know it doesn't lag?

3. Don't try to act like Killzone 2 never lags because I've played it before and it lags.

4. ALL games can lag. Standby button? Lag switch? Shitty connection?

5. I love how fanboys try to act like the PS3 is the top console and everyone loves it. Lets see something. The number 1 top sold/shipped game on the PS3 is Grand Tursimo 5..... with 3.31 million copies sold. Now thats the #1 best selling game for the PS3. The 360's top 6 games all sold more than the PS3's #1 game.

The 360's top 6 games all sold more than the PS3's #1 game.

1. It's not alot, it's the fact that you are Paying for a Player-To-Player online system, something that is, by rights, free, seeing as how you are HOSTING part of the game.

2. Every major gaming website has had hands on time with MAG, a 64 vs 64 player game... know what they all said? No lag.

3. I play it all the time, and the only times i ever experience lag was during it's first month of release. After 2-3 patches, nothing wrong with it.

4. Yes, All games can lag.

5. did i say the PS3 was all so glorious? no, all i said was that Xbox Live is ripping you off charging for something that is free and that YOUR console hosts, Only 2 Xbox 360 games use Dedicated Servers. (Infact, Microsoft tried to charge with Games for Windows live aswell, and that flopped harder then a fat kid screwing up a jump into a pool and landing smack onto his stomach, which is why it's free now)

5.5:

MGS4: over 5 Million sales, being the PS3's highest selling game.

Also, that GT5 game is actually GT5 Prologue, a Demo, and that Certain Demo has sold almost as much as Forza 2 did on the 360...

Also, why exactly are you talking about sales? Last time i checked, a gamer played Games, not sales.

Lets see. You asked why I'm paying for Live? That's because I want to play games that aren't terrible. Every time I hear a PS3 owner say how bad Xbox is they say " OMG U HAS TO PAY MONEY TO PLAY ONLINE!!!!!!!11" Well lets see. Are the PS3 games as popular as the 360 games? No. That is why 360 players pay the $50 (less then a new game) for a year of online play. Plus, every time you buy a game, you are giving the PS3 another game sold, so last time I checked you buy a game, Sony makes a sale.

So... Sales = how good a game is?.... Guess the Wii is the best console this generation and Wii Fit is the best game?

If you read what I wrote you'd see that I said Sales = Popularity not Sales = Quality. Please read what I say before you randomly post shit.

Obviously Wii Fit is a good game if people are buying it. If Wii Fit was the worst game ever people wouldn't have bought it.

And BTW, Wii Sports had more copies sold and second was Wii Play. I don't know where you got your info from. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_video_games

No, the Master Chief was involved with Reach, just not to the extent with all the other Spartans. Read the book and you will understand what they will be focusing on.

A Microsoft rep stated Reach was going to be a FPS. His exact words were "Of course it's an FPS,". It won't be like Halo Wars.

your not gonna play as master chief ur gonna play as another spartan fighting on reach and this takes place just before the events of halo 1 cuz the planet reach got destoryed and they warped out of there and accidently warped to halo.
IF U WANT TO KNOW MORE READ THE BOOKS JUST GOOGLE HALO: THE FALL OF REACH

I think that they should stop focusing on Chief so much, I mean he is best of the best, but there are 3 games already about him, we need to focus on other spartans >.>

No its not going to end like this. I'm pretty sure the pro's in MLG are going to stick with Halo 3. Therefore Halo 3 shall never end.
