: How can it be worse, or even as bad as in Halo 2?

: The bad part of Halo 2's ending was that it was an unintentional, poorly
: set-up cliffhanger. Something was supposed to happen right after that
: scene, but we didn't know what it was, didn't get to play it, and were
: improperly prepared for action to end right then.

: There's no way we aren't prepared for the necessary and inevitable
: circumstances surrounding the end of this game-- the Fall of Reach.

: We know what happens next. We can even play it-- there's a whole game devoted
: to it.

: I can imagine that you, for your reasons, dislike this ending as much or more
: than you disliked Halo 2's, but I think your reasons for doing so would
: have to be pretty different, because there's simply not a lot in common
: here.

The ending was just very anti-climatic.

Why did they completely ignore all of the stuff that were in the novels?

All of the marketing and commercials for "Remember Reach" led up to Reach being completely destroyed....except...IT DIDN'T!

The mission after the credits was totally forced. "Well..Noble 6 is still alive, just give em a bonus mission so they can die guns blazing." That is lame. At least give me a purpose to die guns blazing.

I don't really want to go into all the details for my disappointment because of the spoiler stuff. Maybe I will just make a writeup and post it in a week or so. :/
