Has anyone played the newest installment in the Halo universe? I have read some very good reviews, and welcome the opinions of anyone who has played.

Personally, I am hopeful that this one will be able to elicit my passion for video games just as Halo: CE did ten years ago.

I thought all this game was is the original Halo rejiggered for the 360.

It is the same game, right?

Pretty much a rehashed halo CE. What I've seen of it it looks very pretty, and it comes with the codes or a disk not 100% sure for the anniversary map pack for reach.

They should do it for Halo 2 in the future.

Truth is I still play the first Halo game, and I am liking that I am getting it for christmas. I am a big Halo fan though (have the best versions of Halo 3 and Reach)

Also heard there is some information on the Forerunners and the next game, though I really should read the novel I got on the Forerunners recently.

Currently getting my skill level back on for a legendary run.

basically its the same game reach level graphics there are audio diaries like in halo 3 hidden and you can get skulls and achievements.


I would not pay the price of a full xbox game but as it was only 60$ here i found it to be a worth wide buy

It also gives you some free maps for halo reach and a new fire fight mode

Not sure if i can play match making on co op got to try that.


Given its cost i give it 9 out of 10 if on the other hand it was priced at the 120 most new games cost it would be an angry 4 out of 10

I want to see if there is a different ending for the last level on legendary.
