    Halo Reach

    • The multiplayer is great
    • I recently purchased a copy of Halo: Reach during an Xbox Live Free Gold Weekend to try out the multiplayer for the first time and fell in love with it.
    • The competitive multiplayer is familiar, yet brand new with a lot more options and a faster pacing
    • Overall though it is an excellent multiplayer game and if you enjoy shooting up friends and strangers over Xbox Live this is a definite must buy.
    • Multiplayer is great.
    • Multiplayer is where this game really shines.
    • This is a rent for me, if you want great multiplayer play Halo 3 & MW2.
    • But anyways, Reach offers a decent campaign, awesome multiplayer
    • the multiplayer is pretty
    • Overall, the online multiplayer is very poor, but the single player and private/custom multiplayer is insanely fun.
    • Then, once you're done with that, go try the awesome Multiplayer that still has me playing it today still ever since I got this 4 years ago at Gamestop
    • I don't love the multiplayer; it's no better nor any worse than Halo 3's or 2's or CE's multiplayer
    • The multiplayer is good too, quite a bit of variety but nothing that really blew my socks off
    • The game has good story, excellent gameplay, fantastic multiplayer, great graphics
    • Freakishly good and immersive multiplayer experience; good sound and music; great graphics (much improvement over halo 3); fantastic campaign AI; armor abilities (especially jetpacks); forge editor
    • I loved the campaign, but the multiplayer is where this title really shines.
    • the multiplayer isnt fantastic
    • And the multiplayer is fantastic I love playing swat with my friends
    • Good multiplayer.
    • Multiplayer is the best in this installment of the series, online game play is ridiculously addicting and a blast (not to mention an amazing stress releiver)
    • I love the multiplayer and ranks, and the game has really good music.
    • So games that have strong multiplayer options are fine as long as they don't have a painfully short campaign mode
    • This game has great graphics, multiplayer, firefight and forge
    • Reach, I was disappointed with Halo 3 and stayed away from the franchise for a while, but it has great graphics and a fairly interesting story and the multiplayer is very enjoyable.
    • Multiplayer is also very very fun
    • Multiplayer is a little slow, with leveling up taking many a game
    • I know i was 3 years late getting to the Reach party but even in 2013 the individuals still playing Halo Reach Xbox-360 multiplayer are the best of the best
    • I'm awful at it, but it is the single greatest multiplayer out there
    • To an old school not really improved multiplayer
    • Multiplayer was the most fun out of all the Halo games.
    • Great game, multiplayer is nice as well
    • With a so-so story, characters you can't get attached to, and a great multiplayer suite, maybe Reach should have been multiplayer only
    • If you like Halo multiplayer, this is the game you'll have to buy as all the players from Halo 3 are here now.
    • I almost exclusively play multiplayer with my wife, and while it's quite different from previous versions of Halo, I still love it
    • The multiplayer is just as amazing
    • Its multiplayer isn't glitchy like COD and it is very rewarding to assassinate somebody
    • All in all a good multiplayer experience, especially for the fact 2 people on the same console can simultaneously be logged onto Xbox Live... pretty good little package...
    • Multiplayer is great.
    • The multiplayer is phenomenal, however, the voting on one of three different gametypes can be abused by significant numbers of biased players (aka SWAT), but it's a flaw that's easily overlooked.
    • So I just went through and completed the Halo Reach Campaign and have also logged in over 10 hours of playtime between the firefight cooperative game and competitive multiplayer.
    • Multiplayer is not that good because you are waiting for games more than you are playing.
    • This game has a great story, great multiplayer, great firefight, and great forge
    • The gameplay is some of the most fun I've had, the story and campaign is amazing, with the unforgettable team of Spartans, and the multiplayer, of course, is popular
    • Great campaign, cooperative modes (including the story mode and firefight) and awesome multiplayer
    • Multiplayer, though, is amazing
    • Multiplayer is very similar to Halo 3, but vastly improved, with a new voting system (pick one of three maps/gametypes or NOTA, which leads to a new round of voting)
    • Multiplayer is much smoother and the extras (easter eggs) in campaign are fun!
    • Great multiplayer new weapons, new story GREAT
    • The multiplayer is phenomenal, however, the voting on one of three different gametypes can be abused by significant numbers of biased players (aka SWAT), but it's a flaw that's easily overlooked.
    • :ghost was nerfedno forge maps in firefight modeNo master chiefAll in all, a creative game that lets you play a great campaign and amazing multiplayer
    • Of course, online vs. is amazing, and the new abilities add just that little bit more to make this the best multiplayer online vs experience in the series.
    • halo fans great game multiplayer is amazing and totally worth the moiney so please please buy buy buy its great
    • There are a couple of maps that get picked 90% of the time, which makes multiplayer a very repetitive experience.
    • The multiplayer on Halo Reach is one of the best multiplayer games I've ever played.
    • Even thought multiplayer was better, the story was sort of forgetful and boring
    • I mean, it has it's fun and charm, but the graphics are second rate, the multiplayer is confusing to start up and, quite frankly, really boring.
    • In the actual competitive multiplayer portion of the game, I found it to be a little frustrating
    • The multiplayer is fun, but could use more custimization.
    • Multiplayer is where this game really shines
    • , i havent dived into yet, multiplayer has kept me quite entertained.
    • Also you have a night vision mode which works and looks like the one from Call of Duty: Modern Warfare.- Intense multiplayer versus action either by yourself on a team; the mode has plenty of different options to choose from
    • The multiplayer is the best of all of them - and the graphics are stunning.
    • The multiplayer is fun, although I found myself getting bored of it within a couple weeks.
    • Game is amazing and the multiplayer is good
    • Where this game really really shines, however, is the multiplayer
    • The multiplayer is simple amazing and I still think the graphics look fantastic even in 2014.
    • The gameplay is completely amped up, the soundtrack fits in perfectly, and the multiplayer is great, not to mention firefight
    • Multiplayer is STILL frustrating and inconsistent
    • Its single player is OK... but the multiplayer and new ranking system is simply amazing
    • The multiplayer is like most fps shooters
    • Whether you enjoy the multiplayer of the Modern Warfare series or the Halo series better is a matter of preference, but I find that beginners have a very hard time adapting to Halo gaming
    • The last time I enjoyed multiplayer was Quake III on PC, around 10 years ago
    • If this is your first Halo game I'd have no real reason to pass up a good multiplayer experience
    • Online Experience: As well as the multiplayer you will also be able to matchmake firefight and (coming soon) campaign coop.
    • It has great multiplayer options for Live and the campaign is cool and challenging.
    • This may be the best multiplayer online game of all time, with half a million gamers online during peak hours of the day and night
    • With so many added features the multiplayer is extremely enjoyable.
    • Multiplayer is refreshing with the secondary abilities such as cloaking, flight, and invincibility create a new approach to an already phenomenal and popular multiplayer game
    • If it weren't for Halo we wouldn't have regenerating health, or solid FPS multiplayer, but Reach perfects the Halo multiplayer in many ways, but before we get there let's dive into the single player campaign
    • It's got a great campaign and also has a great multiplayer for online
    • and it's one of the best multiplayer experiences for those that like the halo multiplayer experience.
    • your Enemy the voting system that they have now is much more improved then the last one it feels like a hole new game a must buy if your a halo fan especially if you like the multiplayer.
    • The Limited edition comes with a download code for more extra armor parts for your character as well as a Halo Reach patch and a mini book with some back story on the game from the point of view of one of the stories characters.- The Legendary edition comes with everything found in the limited edition plus even more download codes for more extra armor parts for your character (like giving you a avatar a flaming helmet much like the Bungie staff had in Halo 3's multiplayer) as well as a small figure set of the games main characters design by Todd Mcfarlane of Spawn fame.
    • The multiplayer is fantastic, and it is a nice change from the normal Halo experience
    • So far the campaign is great and multiplayer is fun
    • in several hours, then the online multiplayer will keep you entertained for weeks or months beyond.
    • plus is that the multiplayer is MUCH faster at finding a match in matchmaking than it was in any previous games.
    • And wow, this blows away every other online multiplayer I've had (including the Modern Warfare games)
    • Such a fun campaign and multiplayer is awesome.
    • The Campaign is awesome, and the multiplayer is sick.
    • Multiplayer is amazing and the campaign is great
    • Amazing details to the weaponry, Great storyline, great multiplayer maps, and firefight is the best part of the game
    • The multiplayer is pretty fun and the rounds are pretty short
    • A fun campaign , awesome multiplayer, and cool forge world
    • But after getting used to it I will say Reach has good multiplayer maps and a good campaign.(I am Iron Cyborg).
    • Multiplayer: quite awesome, and i don't give that word out easily
    • I might be a little biased since Halo is the reason why I got into consol gaming (vs. PC based) but I truly believe this is the apex of the series with a very enjoyable campaign & great multiplayer.
    • The multiplayer is unrivaled
    • I was getting bored not because the multiplayer isn't good, but more because I'm the sort of gamer who likes leveling and unlocking things.
    • a robust multiplayer suite that will satisify every type of gamer, 4 player co-op support for campaign and firefight, and the ability to customize your character, firefight, multiplayer maps, and game types all work to ensure you won't get bored anytime soon.
    • Multiplayer is awesome
    • The Story is an overall a combat story going from mission to mission with nothing really tying into the overall Halo lore until the last chapter.- Intense multiplayer action online through Xbox Live with matches as small as one on one and as big as 16 players (and even offline without using Xbox Live using either spilt screen, or system link)
    • The multiplayer is phenomenal as well
    • Multiplayer holds no fascination for me
    • If you are looking for good old Halo 2 and 3 style online multiplayer you are look at the wrong product Im afraid
    • Multiplayer is expansive but basically the same game we've come to expect, capable of supporting large groups of combatants on even larger battlefields.
    • it even shows up in the campaign! awesome multiplayer... although i will say this... unless your an avid halo fan who only cares about story lines
    • Great Graphics, new environments, new voices for enemies, good campaign, awesome multiplayer, AND you get to
    • The story ending was pretty good, and the online multiplayer is extremely addicting
    • It is a true masterpiece and contains the best multiplayer game; Invasion.
    • is if you love multiplayer, you will probably love this game.
    • I was pleasantly surprised however, I am enjoying the multiplayer and after only a couple of online games I was holdng my own and getting the hang of things.
    • Multiplayer is where this game really shines
    • The multiplayer is fun, and has good variety, though my Halo skills have been unused since Halo
    • The competitive multiplayer is as it has always been (a couple new game types and easily-overlooked "new" weapons), which for me is, at best, a occasional 30 minute time killer.
    • I has a great multiplayer and I will never get bored of this gameOne downside
    • This is a must buy for any halo fan great campaign and awesome multiplayer but forge is the bestJetpacks are cool and they added sprint which is really coolThere are some things I hated about the games allot of guns are missing and no dual wield and the forge maps are not very good forge world sucks
    • the only thing i didn't like was the multiplayer, because there are just a few maps and could take you some time to find a party to play.
    • Multiplayer is great although I don't care for the chosing game process
    • best multiplayer to date 12/18/14
    • its to good multiplayer is awesome same with story mode and theres skulls to unlock different armor so get the game.
    • Multiplayer is awesome
    • Solid fun with impressively expansive multiplayer.
    • I also enjoy the multiplayer, but it's the weakness of the game for me
    • The associated challenges and achievements are an added bonus!But multiplayer is the real reason everyone turns to Halo, and Bungie doesn't disappoint
    • The campaign was fun but the multiplayer and firefight are the best
    • That being said, The multiplayer is a disapointment
    • The multiplayer is great too,large maps for online and small for split screen
    • I WILL be recommending this game less and less as Halo 4 nears, since Reach does not follow Master Chief's story, and the multiplayer I cannot see lasting long after Halo 4's release
    • Halo Reach is one of the best multiplayer games of all time
    • I can say don't buy it but the multiplayer really is worth it
    • With a decent campaign (the fact that you don't get to play as Master Chief is a bummer) and addictive multiplayer (especially Living Dead gametype) this game will keep you hooked.--------------------------------Pros: Addictive Multiplayer, Improved Firefight and Forge mode, New weapons such as the Concussion Rifle are fun to use
    • And wow, this blows away every other online multiplayer I've had (including the Modern Warfare games)
    • also see what Reach is like before and during the Covenant invasion and u and your team of spartans are the only thing standing in there way for Cortana
    • but ive seen worse T rated games
    • Its good I like it
    • I have played Halo and Halo 2 on the PC as well as on the Xbox/Xbox 360
    • You'd probably say thats just as stupid as if they scraped half of all the weapons and replaced them with strange similar counterparts and then changed the function of all the other weapons they didn't scrap
    • But I've never played a Halo game that was as fresh, innovative, and interesting as the very first one
    • Solid A!
    • It is still, however, not as great as I had
    • Nothing ground breaking but lots of fun solo as well as with friends.
    • The maps incorporate campaign settings making them just more natural, as well as bringing back old classics like ivory tower and ascension
    • New weapons, vehicles, and armor abilities have been added (although duel wielding has been removed), but the core gameplay is still as sharp as when the first Halo wowed the world.
    • course.(some good games R beyond me)I highly recommend Halo Reach!
