In Response To: Wow... (Louis Wu)


: I'm really, really surprised that there is no support for the idea that Reach
: has one of the most unique (and powerful, imo) endings of any game, ever.

: I mean, the Guinness votes have support for that - but there is not a single
: person who's posted so far in this thread who's agreed with it (I realize
: some of you went other directions).

: That blows me away.

: For me, comparing Halo 3 and Reach (endings only), it's no contest. Halo 3
: was good, no doubt about it - but it was just an ending. I'm not sure I
: can say I PREDICTED it - but it wasn't a surprise.

: Reach... I knew Noble Six had to die, but I couldn't figure out how Bungie
: was going to do that in a way that didn't seem trite.

: Then I played Lone Wolf.

: I nearly clapped when it was over.

I would say Reach is my number one in ending and MW2 in second. BOps as number one doesnt make sense at all. it was terrible. no epic fighting. no epic speech. no cool nothing. the only thing it did was make a generic planes-fly-by-and-say-we-won scene. that was so disappointing after seeing MW2's.

MW2 had an epic fight-cinematic cutscene. to almost die, watch your best friend almost die, and have to pull that knife out of ya (make my stomach squeeze hard), and finally throw the knife into that guy's eye was rewarding after going through so much pain. reason it is second in my list is because the ending was so obviously going to happen by doing lets-end-it-here-so-we-can-make-more-money-with-MW3 and the fact Reach's is better.

Reach is number one in my list because of Lone Wolf. NEVER in a Halo game you actually played after the credits. i knew something would be at the end, but when the HUD came in and it said "Current Objective: Survive", I had to rush for my controller (didnt think i would need it). so that was a surprise. though i did not last as long as i'd hope, the glass breaking in your visor was new. and when you died, the cutscene played. after the epic battle that Noble 6 went out, when he died, it was the first time in any video game where a tear came. that's why Reach's ending is number 1 for me. all of it was so well done, imo.
