Re: What I liked about Halo: Reach *SP*

: I guess the issue for me is I assumed the novels were establishing the cannon
: for the story, but you are right, the game should be the main source. As
: to the weapons, the weapon loadout and vehicles from Reach to H1 seems
: just a little too different for me to bite.

Well... to some extent I think it's unavoidable prequelitis. Going backwards I think is OK in some areas (no dual wielding) but if Bungie had taken away all the new toys and given us Halo 1's arsenal, I'm not sure everyone would be OK with that either-- unless they gave us the pistol on every mission.

And Bungie has full right to
: decide its game, I just like to complain about what draws me to different
: games. Also the space flight part, I was hoping for something more in
: terms of fighting the hopeless fight when the invasion fleet arrived.

: Overall I know Halo Reach is a great game in comparison to the legions of
: imitations. I understand that economics dictate that game prices need to
: increase (Stupid inflation... sometimes I wish I avoided economics in
: school), but it just seemed the H1 campaign was more (Could be the
: "when I was younger" affect).

: Thank you for taking me down a peg!

Heh-- sorry, that was really not my intent. I can't even say for sure Reach is good because my copy hasn't arrived yet! Just a few more days.

You should come over to this XBL thread I'm on over at the Escapist, I could use an economist...
