Halo gets a halo

[Magnalian]

The only Halo I ever played was/is Halo 3. The story isn't really anything to write home about, but the fact that I'm still playing both the campaign and regular multiplayer with my friends, as well as the fact that I can recite some of the dialogue from the campaign from memory do speak for something. I assume Halo: Reach is gonna be a blast, a worthy 'swan song' to the Halo series, as the developers put it.

you are all true?

Part of me is happy to see a final definitive Halo as the final curtain for the series at least as far as Bungie is concerned but at the same time another part of me is a little saddened to see it go. It's like reading the last Winnie the Pooh book or the end of Toy Story 3, it's going to signify the end of an age for me and that can be a little upsetting.

I always think of you when a Halo thread comes up XD Now that its coming to an end... *pats back* Poor guy.

Why does everyone criticize Halo about it needing to 'come to an end'? There have been more Call of Duty games and at least Halo has a nicely expanded universe and some lore.

Anyways, I suppose its always nice to see something come to a satisfying end but I will be sad to see it go. I grew up playing CE and I have spent countless hours playing Halo 3, I really don't want Halo to end because I find the games very fun and I love them.

Personally, ODST and 3 were not good in my opinion. I loved CE more than any of them, 2 was actaully decent (other than the cliffhanger) since it made a few nice features and gave xbox live multiplayer a run for it's money. And surprisingly, I loved Halo Wars. I'm a big RTS fan and having so many warthogs and tanks rolling on a field was fun to me.

Reach I'm unsure about, but I DID love the reach novel as one of the best in the series (regardless what you think of the games, the novels were done rather well). And so to finally see it, and to play as something OTHER than MC, then I'll buy it.

But no, I will not buy those stupid 120 dollar "Legendary" editions. Ugh! I learned the hard way when I bought 3's legendary... Never again.
