Halo:Reach Review

Ok so this was a hotly anticipated game for fans of Halo and general game enthusiasts. I was looking forward to it myself, but did it Reach my expectations? No. To be honest it was Halo, nothing more, nothing less. The selesction of maps was small and to be honest not hugely varied, game modes become repetitive quickly and all in all, the difference between it and Halo 3 are not all that great. As in all Halo games they have added and removed some things from Halo 3, new weapons (which aren't all that original), new vehicles (ditto) and the armor abitlities which lose their novelty after a short time don't add an awful lot to multiplayer except some annoying features which can add to annoyance. 


Don't get me wrong I actually quite like the game, but only because everyone has it and I can play with them. Other than that I don't think this game has an awful lot going for it. If yiu disagree feel more than welcome to comment. Dead Rising 2 review next.

EDIT: As was well pointed out I forgot to mention single player, well this is actually the best halo campaign so far in my opinion but it does miss out certain parts which made me love Halo 3, such as taking out Scarabs. And you don't really use vehicles all that much. It is also pretty short, it does however have a nice varied sense to it and is relatively difficult on Legendary, especially alone.

Modded Controllers

This possibly is my biggest hate in the world of online console gaming. You know when someone is using one yet they use excuses like 'It's a trigger finger' or my favourite, ' Just 'cos you can't afford one'. No it's not either of those things. One, you feel the need to enchance your performance using an automated method, and second you're not even trying to make it not obvious.

I suppose it's my fault for thinking too much of people though I suppose. I will try to fit more positives into my blog but I don't think it will be the last time you'll be hearing me complain about modded controllers.

Reviews on Halo:Reach, Dead Rising 2 and FIFA 11 coming up soon!

Boosting.

Never seen the point in boosting, ever, in any situation. You can gurantee that when any new game comes out there will be those that have glitched or modded or boosted their way to the top rank in the game. Isn't the whole point to experience the ranking process?

UNORIGINAL NAMES!

Everytime I join a game it's Xx whatever you know the score. Just wandering do people think it looks good or what? Personally I think it looks pretty poor and unoriginal so I can't see why people do it. Your Thoughts?

FIFA!

This game is possibly my favourite franchise of all time. Especially FIFA clubs. Playing with friends on FIFA clubs has to be one of the funnest parts of Xbox Live. It builds comeraderie among friends and even people who don't like football can get into it.

Hello.

Sup, just gonna generally rant about games. Mainly me complaining about the standard of peoples names in the community *cough* XxDeStRoY3RxX i'm looking at you. Bought Dead Rising 2 and Halo Reach recently, Dead Rising 2 stresses me out because I feel genuine empathy for the Survivors God knows why so I end up being stretched for time, an amazing game though. Halo Reach has dissapointed me hugely unfortuanetly, shame, it was looking good.
