**Official** HALO REACH thread
- Thread starter STICK
- Start date
Good question. Played it at my brothers house yesterday evening before his party. 20 minutes in it freezes and it says the disc is unreadable.
Yeah, the disc is unreadbale and that shit is also unacceptable. I'm till sitting on the fence on this one, but I do want to put like 45 minutes to an hour in before I decide.
But anyway, does anyone know about this disc error? It was my nephews xbox system, but he said he never had that problem before. And the Halo game was new, and came with a controller that still had the sticker on it, so it wasn't like he had been playing it all day and night and damaged the disc.

Nah that doesn't solve the problem. The following is a thread over 130pages long and filled with the problem.

I played it last month, but I finally put in more than an hour. I can't even install the disk on my HD. It says the disk is unreadable even though I can play the game. I'm glad I didn't waste money on this game and I'm going on record to say that most fans of this game, or most FPS period, suffer from mental issues.
Shoot, kill enemies, throw grenades, kill enemies, melee, kill enemies. Go to next level Shoot, kill enemies, throw grenades, kill enemies, melee, kill enemies. There is absolutely NOTHING ground breaking or innovative about Halo reach. NOTHING.
And even though I don't like FPS, I had a WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY better time with KZ2. In KZ2 I felt I had a purpose and the story drove me further. This Halo shit? Waste of time. Graphics are inferior. Story just drops you in, not much variety in the set pieces and the AI sucks. NEVER let the computer drive the vehicle for you.

LOL you really need to get Xbox Live everything you saying is about single player bullshit, like I said I haven't even touched the Campaign. So I wouldn't know about that. Online can't be fucked with, only outdated gamers have your opinion and people without Live. Gamers who don't have the timing down will suffer from mental issues lol.
Nothing is innovative? Probably for Campaign (which I haven't touched). If you Haven't played the online then your argument is void.

THIS! This is the reason why a lot of games are shitty and why Halo, and most FPS, are shitty. The campaign takes a backseat so some stooge can get on the net and say "Ha Ha I BEEZ PWN-N DA NOOBZ FUX(O)R" while choking on stale dorritos and pissy ass mountain dew.
So your argument is null and void?
See above.
I stopped with live when I stopped with gears and street fighter. Shit I don't even use the PS3's FREE mp.
How many single player campaign vids do you see where a kid or adult is going nuts and damn near killing himself? Not many. With FPS and other mp games? Many.
Absolutely nothing. It's the same goddamn thing over and over.
And I wonder why....
What's innovative about the online play? It's an extension of the single player aspects with the addition of being able to make your own maps. WOW! You get armor and gear that does NOTHING to enhance your gameplay, the weapons are pretty much the same and there is nothing different from the shoot, kill enemies, throw grenades, kill enemies, melee, kill enemies. Go to next level Shoot, kill enemies, throw grenades, kill enemies, melee, kill enemies.

I'm sorry but this game is going to the trash. It isn't even worth trading in and you should be ashamed for even playing it, fam. You know, deep down, that Halo is a shitty game. Admit it.

lol tell em how you really feel heresy
Really halo hasn't been shit but a regurgitation of Perfect Dark for the N64 with the plot/story completely ripped off from every sci-fi movie ever made. The series started as the work of hacks but because it was the only FPS on the first xbox everyone bought it & has been dick riding it for years to the billion dollar franchise that it is now. Basically, people are stupid, they don't realize how awful this series is.

Why would I need to play swat in order to give a real review? The game is not based on swat. The game is based on the campaign experience and the overall MP experience. So I play swat and then what? It's not innovative it's simply a variation of the rules, tools and weapons.
They probably would but I'm not a "casual gamer" or "PS3 fan" as I have both systems and at least 15 games on each system (not to mention the older systems and emulators I have.)
What the FUCK is a "hardcore gamer", fam? Cause if it's a person who's damn near played every system, took up summer jobs in the early 90's to purchase super famicom games and the adapter to play them, starts each game on the hardest difficulty, doesn't use codes, cheats, guides and puts time into the games they like (time willing) while shelling out $$$$ for first day releases and dlc then I'm one. If it is a person who plays FPS all day (console or pc) and says things like "I PWNZ THA NOOBZ/I'Z BEEZ THA LEET ALLZ HAILZ THA MASTER THAT IS CHEIF" you can count me the fuck out.
Fuck Halo Reach. People need to see this game for what it is. Basic fps, a SHITTY fps, with no true direction outside of the MP aspect. Shit I had more fun with Borderlands and that was another shitty game.

At last night's Halo Fest event, we learned about a rather beefy title update to Halo: Reach that's set to launch sometime next month. The patch implements a number of significant (and, therefore, controversial) changes to the multiplayer title, with the biggest being the nerfing of the Armor Lock ability. Instead of making you an invulnerable juggernaut, Armor Lock now only prevents most of the damage done to you whilst locked, and no longer detaches stuck plasma grenades.
Other changes include: the addition of "Shield Bleed-through," whereby damage done to players with a fraction of their shield remaining can now be carried over to their remaining health; an option to remove reticle bloom; the removal of a player's ability to deflect an oncoming sword lunge by meleeing (unless they too are using a sword); and the wholesale buffing of the pistol, bringing it closer to parity with its Halo: Combat Evolved predecessor
