And so it comes to this. Bungie has left the Microsoft stable and joined up with Activision to start an entirely new franchise. After the success of Halo, you can bet on Bungie coming up with a formidable title for Activision to add to its stable. Ho...
Expertly paced storytelling and carefully crafted gameplay, delivers the best Halo campaign to date, multiplayer fans get even more bang for their buck with Reach's bottomless suite of online options
It's still Halo -- so if you didn't like it before Reach probably won't change your mind
An epic story, incredible pacing, and a spot-on mix of old and new elements make Reach's campaign Halo's best yet. Oh, and when you've finished the story mode, plan on spending a large chunk of your life in the massive online universe. Any way you cut it...
Abstract: I prepared for Halo: Reach – the final instalment in the sprawling Halo video game series to be made by Bungie, its founding studio – in what might seem a peculiar way: By rereading a decade-old book. Erik Nylund’s million-selling Halo: The Fall of Rea...
Abstract: On paper, Halo: Combat Evolved read like it was destined for obscurity: In the future, a cybernetic super soldier defends humanity from an alien horde. It’s the sort of logline that reminds you that you need to take the rubbish out tonight. The develop...
Trims the fat and delivers a Halo game that plays as homage to the series as a whole. Armour ability system is a great step forward. Expanded multiplayer options increase value. The planet Reach is a great achievement.
Fails to truly convey the drama of Reach's fall. Thin characters. Some over-developed Convenant weaponry. Some frame rate losses.
Abstract: Halo broke the mould when it was released on Xbox 360, convincing many for the first time that a first person shooter could be played effectively without a keyboard and mouse. Halo's controller-friendly interface took frustration out of the equation an...
Halo: Reach is a fitting end to an amazing part of gaming history that has served as the vanguard of Xbox gaming dominance. Gamers are treated to a well thought out campaign and some excellent multiplayer options, providing a fitting farewell to an exc...
Engaging campaign; new armour abilities; cool new vehicles and weapons; new robust multiplayer modes
Limited number of original multiplayer maps; Power of melee attacks and grenades have been downgraded; no penalty for quitting matches early.
While it is sad that Halo: Reach is the last Bungie Halo game, it is nonetheless a great FPS with a well tuned combat system with cunning enemies that will challenge even experienced players. The excellent single-player campaign will last a good 10 ho...

Abstract: Mehr als ein halbes Jahr nach ihrer Einführung beginnen Xbox One und PlayStation 4 mit der steigenden Anzahl exklusiver Spiele attraktiver zu werden. Bis Sony und Microsoft im Herbst weitere Anreize setzen, bietet die alte Generation Spielkonsolen nicht n...
Was ein Abschied! Eines, das muss ich Bungie lassen: Wenn sie etwas wirklich wollen, dann schaffen sie das auch. Und sie wollten sich mit einem Paukenschlag sondergleichen von Halo verabschieden. Genau das ist auch gelungen und lässt mich nun fast ein ...
