Halo Reach Gamers Impact

Halo Reach Is The 10th installment (Including Halo Zero And Halo: Custom Edition For the PC) Of The popular game series. Halo Reach takes place before the events of Halo: Combat Evolved So for those thinking that this is just some side project sequel that was rushed well then you should bite your tongue right there.

Halo Reach is another 1st person shooter that grips its fans by its futuristic storyline and stunning imagery. The game flourishes best in its well known multi-player system utilized by Xbox Live. Players can now take their skills and put them to the test on new maps, new vehicles and characters. The game engine for halo reach isn't a far cry from its predecessors which will have all the Halo fans spending more endless nights pwning n00bs and solidifying their spot as master chief. Halo Reach doesn't disappoint in the weapons department either. Bringing back old favorites like the Sniper Rifle, Shotgun and the Gravity Hammer (Just to name a few). Choosing these weapons will have a nostalgic feel but will be updated and looking more polished then ever.

I Mean who doesn't want to sit on top of a hill and just mercilessly pick off the other team with a sniper rifle? I Know i do, and you will too considering there will be a new gun added called The Focus Rifle. This weapon is by far the most satisfying mix of a particle beam type weapon mixed with the range of a sniper rifle. Bungie has truly out did itself with this weapon..Not only does it fire a charged beam across the map but the skin frying graphics and sound of burning flesh make killing with it that much more pleasing. Another "New" (calling it new for the sake of the fans..not new in the halo time-line though) weapon Is the Plasma Launcher. This weapon might be regarded to some as a n00btube but do not take it as that. This weapon is slow but the distance can be altered by how you hold down the trigger and release it.

It shoots 4 sticky grenades out of it which then find the target and well..you know the rest from there. Bungie has included this weapon to bring a balance for the multi-player sessions so you don't just hop on a server and get ripped apart by the hardcore players. Enough about the weapons, I do not want to give away anymore surprises (close your jaws fan boys!). This game really takes off in its intricate map layouts and design. The graphics in Reach are up to par or even better then the best game out there so far. The graphics seamlessly flow together well with the weapon animations for a smooth running game-play.

Servers are no longer a problem in Halo Reach, the servers have minimal lag and make any other 1st person shooter look like they are played on a dial up modem. For those of you that purchased Halo: ODST and were let down don't be depressed any longer. This game will satisfy the loyal Halo fans and sure to bring in a whole new group of gamers. What experienced Halo player doesn't get satisfaction off of pwning those innocent n00bs? As for the campaign mode expect a brilliant story that has the potential to be up there with the first Halo and loads of action. For those of you who can't wait to play this amazing game you can go to the Halo Reach website and subscribe to the Beta game to get a hands on feel for it. All in all i expect Halo Reach to bring back its title of best 1st person shooter(or game at that matter) and go on to be game of the year.
