But what I am really looking forward to playing are the titles from MOH and COD, and playing season after season with my beloved sports teams.

After playing the invincible Master Chief, I was taken aback by the ending of the Noble Team.

It's a game of strategy (even in team death match

This is the second Halo campaign that does NOT include Master Chief, however, the story stays strong by putting you in the shoes of Noble Six, the newest member of the Noble team, comprised entirely of Spartans

The only thing we learn about Noble Six is they've done a lot of spy work for the Office of Naval Intelligence, which is appropriate given all of the Spartans are ONI projects The other characters on Noble Team are underdeveloped but colorful enough at least some of them are memorable

The musical score is jaw-dropping and tear-jerking at times (no, no one actually cries when they hear it) as you follow Noble Team down their path of inevitable defeat as the Covenant destroy the planet

In this epic playoff of the first original Halo 1, you start out following a group known as Noble Team.

On Heroic difficulty enemies work as a team just like you and your squad

- Kat, Noble Team

One new concept is teamwork, where in previous Halo games Master Chief was a lone wolf hero, in Halo: Reach you play as Noble 6, the sixth and newest member to Noble Team, an elite team of Spartan super soldiers whose job it is to protect planet Reach.

This is a pretty good upgraded version of the famed Halo 3 multiplayer that now has new maps, modes, abilities, and graphics for you to enjoy.- Fire Fight mode allows up to four players to fight waves of enemies on unique maps (based on those in the campaign) using team work and skill

The player follows the not-so-silent protagonist Noble 6, the newest addition to Noble Team, a group of Spartans tasked to investigating and later defending the planetary hub of Reach.

The story puts you in the role of Noble 6, a new Spartan recruit to the Noble team

The most fleshed out off all is Noble Team, all of whome have unique personalities and are brought to life with amazing facial animation and voice acting.

During the campaign, you help out Noble Team in their defense of Reach against the Covenant, a courageous effort against impossible odds

(Noble 6, though I was playing through with my brother, so we jokingly called my guy "6.5"), and I did like George, but I found the other members of Noble team to be annoying (especially Kat).

Throughout the story the members of Noble Team are killed

Of all the Halo games, this one is a breath of fresh air in co-op gameplay with the rest of your team (Noble team) in the Campaign mode.

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

Reach has you playing as the generic Noble 6 who is part of other numbered Noble team members

With Noble Team I just enjoyed meeting a cast of characters (like ODST) who TALKED

split-screen Big Team Battle was what I'd do 90% of the time I've ever played Halo

Maps like Countdown, Sword Base, ETC. were great maps for insane team slayer and zombies

Our heroes are Noble Team, the United Nations Space Command (UNSC) special forces unit that consists of Spartan supersoldiers

Team Noble is sent to investigate why a relay station went off line

There are a ton of game modes, free for all for the individual players, and big team battles for those who like big online matches

For instance, if you have a headset on or have the sound up really high, when the members of noble team talk to you, their transmission can be static or can be clear as day depeneding on your distance from them

The futher you go the more dramatic it becomes as Noble Team sacafrices themselves to save Reach

Noble team has a daunting task on hand as they must try to hold things together while holding back the alien aggressors, even if it means sacrificing their lives to accomplish their task

This team known as "Noble Team" are sent to the planet of REACH, where the Covenant have started a intergalactic war and pretty much ambushed the innocent planet of

based on the fall of reach novel...this game lets you join Noble team

While Noble Team is diverse in race, gender, and culture, there are no clear stereotypes, which has really been a big nuisance in recent games such as Final Fantasy

Noble Team goes on a series of increasingly futile missions, rescuing top secret data from research bases, evacuating important civilians, and delaying attacks long enough for civilian transports to escape

Nobody plays as a team, Big team battle is more like big team scramble to get a vehicle and get it blown up as quickly as possible

The game begins when your character, known simply as "6", joins the elite Spartan team called Noble

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

You are put into the shoes of Noble 6, a member of a Spartan squad called Noble Team

The really fun team SWAT mode, where headshots are instant kills, or Headhunter where a fallen enemy drops a skull that you have to collect and bring to collection zones for points

Halo Reach is timed before Halo 1 and features "Noble Team" a squad second only to the Spartans

The standard version just included the game and an instruction book while the legendary edition included the standard edition, various downloads, a statue and a few trinket items such as a diary and a Noble team patch

No longer do you play the Master Chief, instead you assume the role of Noble 6, the latest Spartan to join the Noble team on planet Reach

On Heroic difficulty enemies work as a team just like you and your squad

Teamwork is essential and really adds to the enjoyment of utterly destroying the other team

Free for all shootouts, team shootouts, clan/gang wars

You and your noble team must defend the planet Reach from the invading Covenant forces

The team is led by Carter-A259 (Freddy Bosche), the handsome but grim leader of the group

then,when all hell breaks out on Reach..your team is put into action.

This makes Invasion mode -which pits a team of 6 Spartans against 6 Covenant Elites in a progressive objective-based battle- much less fun than it should be.

Adding a credit-based system that rewards individual achievement on the battlefield rather than ranking you based entirely on whether your team won or lost was a great move.

okay, when i first heard about this game, i thought i had to play as the different Noble team members throughout the game

The storyline is wonderful, following an elite team of spartans with gorgeous graphics and even more beautiful cut-scenes.

The story of 6 Spartans (Noble Team) encountering the alien Covenant prior to a full-scale invasion of the planet Reach, hopelessly defending the world they call home, discovering mankind's salvation, and their eventual sacrifice make for a fantastic narrative with tons of excuses for action.

Along the way, Noble Team falls apart a little at a time

You know things are going bad and you are fighting on a losing team

Game play did not disappoint me and I loved the story of Noble Team.

The plot so far is pretty unremarkable but the most jarring factor is the constant chatter from the rest of the Noble team

The newest member of Noble team

For instance, why is Team Noble and only Team Noble sent back to the former military Sword base after it falls and is taken over by the Covenant

The plot helps you to invest yourself in not only Noble 6 (the player character) but also the other members of Noble team

I liked how the campaign was about a last stand almost, a team of soldiers trying to buy enough time to save the civillains, and protect other spoilerific stuff

split-screen Big Team Battle was what I'd do 90% of the time I've ever played Halo

Redundancy in gameplay and worthless team actions make me want to shoot my own team, then myself

split-screen Big Team Battle was what I'd do 90% of the time I've ever played Halo.

Halo Reach is a great game and you play as noble six in the noble team

For instance, why is Team Noble and only Team Noble sent back to the former military Sword base after it falls and is taken over by the Covenant

A lone wolf brought into Noble Team by none other then the Spartan III programs founder, Colonel James Ackerson, (Catherine Hasley founded the Spartan II program, which is Master Chief's generation of Spartans)

If you like getting stuck in games where your team is getting chrushed so bad you cant even

Along the way, Noble Team falls apart a little at a time

I believe there are only 2-3 missions where all six members of Noble team are together

but ive seen worse T rated games

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.
