Indeed, Halo will be reborn with Reach.

Shame the trailer was so short.

Cold 20005067d ago (Edited 5067d ago )

I'm leaving home in September and all my consoles to my brothers too.

I only got money for one console, was thinking about switching to the PS3 since I can get my 360 back whenever I come back home on vacation but damn Halo Reach is just keeping me from only having a PS3. I dont want to miss out on the pure epicness that Bungie is cooking up.

Damn I dont know what to do!!!

edit: oops wasnt meant to be a reply.

user83971445067d ago

"Goty"? Hahahahahahahaha yea right haha

pustulio5067d ago

Lol

PS3 fanboys are not trollin here, i wonder if it's because this game has more content than any PS3 exclusive and will be played for so many years instead of 1 or 2.

Nuff of that, the trailer was not that great but i am really excited to get my hands on this game.

Is just that Forge is so amazing just imagine all the millions of people creating and sharing so many stuff, it's gonna be awesome.

aviator1895067d ago

But I think this trailer is just a set-up for what is going to be revealed later on this evening. This campaign trailer could only be a snippet from the actual full-length campaign trailer or something like that.

gtsentry5067d ago

@pustolio.....halo reach cant even dream of having more content then littlebig planet 2

Defiantly going to be a contender
I can't wait till Sept 14 what a great birthday present.

Ascalon945067d ago

same here, Halo 3 and this one fall around my birthday so I'm lucky to get them as a birthday present

JonnyBadfinger5067d ago

Looks pretty damn awesome...

Just hope its in the same league as Combat Evolved... story wise.

looks like its time to pre-order

Wizziokid5067d ago

from the looks of it, it could be better than Combat Evolved, the story of reach is a good one, lets hope they give it the detail and elements it needs to be the best story in the halo universe yet.

SixZeroFour5067d ago

did you notice the destruction on reach at around 40 seconds...the story (especially with the cinematic quality they are showing) looks like it will be a good one

Paradicia5067d ago (Edited 5067d ago )

GOTY 2010.

My mistake.. XD

Edit: GOTD

Fanb0y5067d ago

Game of the Forever.

I think this is the best title for Reach. Forge 2.0 guarantees infinite playtime!

TROLL EATER5067d ago

Dats an insult to bungie.

GAME OF THE DECADE

epic campaign. too much multiplayer content, theatre and forge world. more content than any blue ray games.

hennessey865067d ago

I have a ps3 and i cant think of a game on it where im going to get that much content, its going to be the best halo ever, I can only imagine the possibilities of forge world, I even think this could put killzone 3 in the shade, not for graphics but for everything else

Erotic Sheep5067d ago

How can you say this game has more content than any blu-ray (learn to spell it btw) games? What if the campaign isn't longer than 6 hours? What if Bungie indeed has to sacrifice a few here and there? :|

SixZeroFour5067d ago

which also means they may have to separate campaign and multiplayer in 2 different disks...i personally have/had no problem with it in the past, and i know i wont have a problem with it in the future

Erotic Sheep5067d ago

Yeah but that completely destroys Troll Eater's comment about more content than any blu-ray game right?

LoydX-mas5067d ago

You are confusing content with raw uncompressed data storage.

Of course a Blu-ray disc can hold more data, but it is the CONTENT of the data that Troll is talking about.

From what I have read, most games on Blu-ray that take up alot of the space on the disc, have huge cut scene video or audio file (that have virtually no compression).

What Troll means is, with the obvious advantage Blu-ray has in storage, why is there very little difference in how long games are or the amount of content available?

SixZeroFour5067d ago

erotic...the content he is taking about isnt about data storage...bluray has that without a question, he was talking about what one game had compared to what bluray games have...i think the majority of the space occupying in a game on bluray isnt content (sometimes is tho) but high quality textures, which isnt a bad thing

but the fact remains, even tho bluray disks have more space, its usually not being used to add more content to a game, but to have higher textures and things related to the visuals of the game

bviperz5067d ago

Little big planet has got content. A wide variety of content. And I'm not just talking about costumes either. You don't have to buy a single DLC to enjoy it either.

For me, this will be MY GOTY. Not sure about everyone else (don't care, to be honest).

And from this trailer, I can tell that the music is going to be epic. Halo's soundtrack has always been my favourite out of any video game.

hennessey865067d ago

with killzone 3 and gears of war 3 not due till next year this game has little competition in my opinion. I cannot wait for this game

Noble Spartan5067d ago

indeed it is a shame that Halo Reach got more content then any other blue ray games heck even combined. Games such as GOW3 5 hour game and Uncharted 2 5 hour games.

This just blows all PS3 games out the window. No contest what so ever.

5067d ago
Erotic Sheep5067d ago

lol clearly you haven't played any of the games you mentioned, Reach will be a good game no doubt, but lets not pull off another Alan Wake here. We all know how that ended..

Noble Spartan5067d ago

Fair enough if you can prove it to me that a game has...

Epic campaign

- Four Player Live Co-Op / Spilt Screen
- Difficulty Modifiers Skulls Make playthrough Unique Each time. ( E.g Want no HUD? You can have just a example )
- Meta Scoring System Halo Campaigns have been always very replayable because of the awesome and unpredictable AI not SCRIPTED EVENTS HERE.
- Not much known of campaign but we know its going to be freaken awesome! With space battles just a small portion of exciteing things withint the campaign.

Firefight
- Xbox Live Co-Op / Spilt Screen
- Unlimted Customization! Each detail how you want to play it!
- Skulls furter customization
- Firefight game modes! Spartans Vs Elites! Against your friends!
- Separate Firefight maps for firefight itself!
- Ability to make your own gametypes
- Forge on firefight not know at this time

Forge
- customize your own maps to your liking
- Unlimited potential!
- Infinite maps and gametypes made via this makes Halo Reach a life time worthy game
- Content is overloading here...lets not go into detail here

Matchmaking Online
- Separate Multiplayer maps so far 9 have been found
- Unlimited customization
- Overloading amount of gametypes! Few new ones we seen in Beta
-Armoury progressing system , Armoury is ....freaken AWESOME! SO MUCH CUSTOMIZATION.
- Tonnes load of fun to be had here.
- Much more we don't of off. We all know Halo is the premier of Multiplayer games that has millions play each day..and top of the live charts all year around for ages.

Custom Games

Theatre Mode

Content is exploding out of this game. No game on consoles or heck all platforms have this magnitude of content.

SixZeroFour5067d ago

the question IS...does this trailer count as "'announcement' on thursday"?

Wizziokid5067d ago (Edited 5067d ago )

This game is going to be EPIC, what a way to 'end' the halo series.

I would of liked to know what happened to master chief but I suppose 343 industries will take over that, which if they do a game, I can't imagine being as good sadly. If only Bungie did it...

EDIT: fanboys disagreeing with everyone saying it's going to be good?

JonnyBadfinger5067d ago

343 have Frank O'connor who was 1 of the creative directors of Halo 2 and 3... so it should be pretty much safe...

And i think its pretty safe to assume even though bungie are putting Halo aside i think they will always in someway continue to contribute towards the franchise, whether its helping the developers or making some DLC... i dont think they will ever really and truly walk away from their baby.

Wizziokid5067d ago

I didn't know that, I would like to see some of the bungle team who worked with Halo help out on any future halo titles just to make sure they can be done to a standard we have had grown accustom too.

I agree they won't leave Halo now knowing how successful they won't want anyone destroying it's name and glory.

shinoff2183530d ago

How'd fallout not make the list. Atleast over cyberpunk, tales , and halo. Fallout been around since what 96 98 and has 5 6 games into it. It's full of lore when you play it. I'd even add star ocean to a point.

robtion529d ago

Agree Fallout should be on there.

MadLad529d ago

And somehow Planescape Torment doesn't even make the list.

Crows90529d ago

Hollow knight surpasses these.

shinoff2183529d ago

In lore? I must be missing something

Crows90529d ago (Edited 529d ago )

Yes in lore. Easily missed... absolutely. Never played a game that had me loving the world and lore behind it as much as that one. Most of course wouldn't be able to experience it since it is a more difficult game.

DarXyde528d ago

I can't speak for all titles on this list, but by the time you get to Dark Souls III, the lore is a bloody tapestry of intricacy

Crows90528d ago

Played them all. Im not saying the games on the list dont have good lore...I just think hollow knight had more lore that is hidden but present and more easily explored and accessed. The souls games have tremendous lore but theyre mostly hidden and stay that way unless you look for it and research it. The lore is not very accessible.

DarXyde528d ago

Crows90,

I think that's a somewhat fair assessment. For me, the Souls games are less upfront about the lore, but it does invite your fascination through NPCs, items, locations, bosses, etc. There's this kind of natural progression where the picture becomes just clear enough by doing the essential tasks, but it really makes you want to explore every inch of the world.

TheColbertinator528d ago

Suikoden and Legend of Heroes also have massive lore setups.

agent13528d ago

narration is more important than lore i'd rather watch the story and characters in a more cinematic way instead of searching for notes and stuff that's why i love sony exclusive games like uncharted and gow and hate from software games

shinoff2183528d ago

The article was top ten lore in video games. I think they did a bad job picking games out. I know what you mean though. I just like a variety of games and genres.

Awesome news - so can we look forward to playing Halo: Infinite with no online issues circa 2033?

just_looken614d ago

"You can download the improved Reach AI mod at Mod DB" This was a mod 343 did nothing so the online will be fixed in our dreams.

SullysCigar613d ago

Par for the course with 343.

Profchaos613d ago

They did say they had a 10 year plan for infinite we just all assumed it would be DLC could of been a 10 year netcode rollout.

But seriously this is a mod the community won't be able to modify infinite in the same way

Cikatriz_ESP614d ago

Combat Evolved was the best campaign, and it's not even close.

just_looken614d ago

You should have tried this version of reach when it first came out remastered for a year there was no sound because 343 could not locate the sound files.

It was a special challenge.

badz149613d ago

more like the bunch at 343i are simply mentally challenged

ACEMANWISE614d ago

Well I guess 12 years is faster than most fixes. I guess this is a cheap way to "remaster" something nowadays.....by just fixing something that used to always be broken.

zidane1341613d ago

Did you even read the article? This is a mod to improve AI from back almost 2 gens ago. Nobody is claiming this is remastering anything. Yeesh.

Crows90613d ago

Halo is dead. Microsoft has other shooter franchises it cares more about now. 343 are no longer Xbox golden studio. They are likely to shift things around or even close it all together and give the IP to someone else.

343i decided to pummel the IP into the ground...and when they see it didn't quite look like Glenn's face they decided to just keep on pummeling. Not sure if Glenn is the IP or the fanbase in this case though.

Profchaos613d ago

343 were never the golden studio they were a hastily thrown together b team when bungie said we want to do something else cya

Crows90613d ago

Well ...I didn't want to say it but I agree. Makes you wonder why Microsoft gave them the IP and didn't keep Bungie or any of the talent they acquired from any studio.

CobraKai613d ago

“ Halo Infinite, Halo 3, or Halo: Combat Evolved. It’s hard to say which of the sci-fi FPS games offers the best experience all round.”
He lost me with Halo Infinite.
