Great work in the OP. Hemorrhage, Pinnacle, and Reflection make me

 

[enzo_gt]

I'm still pissed at 2 player local firefight. More sad than pissed ='(

 

[rObit]

Well that was fun. Still hell of an OP. Well done. Eager posters causing thread reset confirms hype level: Maximum.

 

[Sai-kun]

Agreed.

Spoiler

deja vu

 

[Ajemsuhgao]

Amazing OP. And I love your new logo. :lol

[Chris R]

This might be the game that gets me back into the Halo series after jumping out after Halo 2. Hoping there are some killer deals to be had come next week, otherwise I'll just wait for the $40 price point come Black Friday.

 

[ElRenoRaven]

Had to bring these over to this thread.

Ok who wanted to see KAT dancing at PAX?

Here is your chance

I have to say that is hilarious watching a Spartan kick ass dancing.

Did someone order a Spartan dancing to Poker Face?

I think we did

And just because we have to have the gif.

 

[Jex]

Ah it's finally here! Great work on the OP.

I didn't join GAF in time to get on the Halo 3 launch excitement, I'm glad that I'm around to witness this!

 

[Domino Theory]

Real-life Kat needs to post in this thread to make it the greatest thread of all time.

[Slayer-33]

This game is going to be glorious. GLORIOUS.

There's a snow level for FireFight, so... for FireFight, yes. MP? No, but hopefully for later DLC.

[UltimaPooh]

Woot I'm ready to remember!

 

[Hixx]

Usually huge OPs sadden me but when they're put together like that, they are excellent. Good job to all involved.

Six days!!

 

[Mik2121]

Now only 7 days to go! Woooohhh

And tomorrow (well, today I guess) a free premium theme :_)

 

[feel]

I'm going to crash now, but as always please let me know of any omissions

The gauss hog is missing from the vehicles section.

Not worthy of an |OT| edit though, since its just a hog variation.

 

[MattPeters]

Started playing Halo 3 MP a few days ago again to get reach for some Reach MP.

One thing I dont expect to change from H3 to HR...my craptacularness in MP.




Still pumped for Reach!

 

[darkressurection]

There OP is not broken now.:lol
Hype is at maximum.

 

[Blueblur1]

There's so much damn content that a mega OP is necessary. Notice how there's no fluff like enormous screen spanning images and character profiles.

 

[Striker]

Just think, you won't be forced to play in such bad maps. Faith!

Well if you play in the arena, hopefully the divisions will work out well enough where you won't feel like you're always getting owned! That's my hope at least.

 

[burgerdog]

It is beautiful.

 

[Heretic]

Epic thread!

Thank you, Bungie!

It's bitter sweet but one hell of a ride! Can't wait to see what's next for Halo and Bungie respectively!

 

[Jb]

Excellent OP . Can't believe it's only one week away. I really hope Bungie's last Halo will be the definitive game in the franchise.

 

[Nelo Ice]

well done op!

for once i actually wanted to read the through the op :lol

 

[von zipp]

Fantastic work Ghal.

Seriously, that looks like heaps of time and effort was put in to the OP.

you win 10,000 internets for your troubles!!

seven days...

 

[Slayer-33]

Excellent OP . Can't believe it's only one week away. I really hope Bungie's last Halo will be the definitive game in the franchise.

I don't think we need to hope, this game went AAA+A. I wasn't even excited for any Halo games past 2 and then I see what this monster turned into.

 

[GhaleonEB]

There's a gauss hog in the game, not a big deal worthy of an |OT| edit though.

I thought of that right before posting, but couldn't find a good image of it. I might try to chase it down tomorrow though. Thanks for the reminder.

There's enough to do in Reach that I'm seriously considering a marathon Campaign run on Heroic, just tear through it in day one, so I can go on to sample the wares of the other modes. After PAX, I'm already addicted to Firefight.

 

[Plywood]

DAT OP

:B

I didn't know skirmishers were a subspecies of Kig-Yar, til' now! Hell, I though they were just super cool jackals.

 

[Slayer-33]

I wonder how many posts this thing will have by launch day :lol

 

[zewone]

<3 Bungie.

 

[The Librarian]

Hm. I'm not sure I'll be able to play through the campaign in one run without, at the very least, playing a few games of multiplayer. To be extra safe, I'll only play competitive until I'm done with the campaign.

Ugh. There's so much stuff to do. But this will only be a problem for the first couple of days.

 

[Mr. Spinnington]

woohoo! i only need it in singleplayer anyway! it's the biggest reason i'm such a sucker for halo:ce

 

[Always-honest]

hmmn. nice. looking forward to this game.

 

[Thermite]

Now only 7 days to go! Woooohhh

And tomorrow (well, today I guess) a free premium theme :_)

If I read the launch festivities information on xbox.com correctly, the theme that comes out today isn't free, but the Invasion theme that comes out sometime between the 14th-19th will be.

Details are here: http://www.xbox.com/en-GB/news-features/news/DEV_Halo_Reach_Live_Launch.htm.

 

[GhaleonEB]

Hey, look what I found:

http://i54.tinypic.com/1qlwyg.jpg

How far we've come.

Wow, now there's a blast from the past. I can't believe it's been over 3 1/2 years and four threads when we did the Halo 3 Beta thread together. How time flies.

 

[Blueblur1]

Here's a link to my Twitter account:

http://www.twitter.com/Blueblur1

Regarding the codes, I will tweet before I announce how you can win one of these bad boys. Details will probably come in the evening around 7PM EST so make sure to check this thread around then!

 

[zewone]

Missing a description of the plasma rifle in the OP.

 

[Domino Theory]

Hey, look what I found:

How far we've come.

The line at the bottom is still one of the best lines ever.

 

[LukeSmith]

reallllllly nice OP

Kudos to everyone involved, Ghal, m0dus, and anyone else

 

[GhaleonEB]

Missing a description of the plasma rifle in the OP.

Yup, and the Spiker, and the machine gun turret and the plasma cannon. I've literally never seen an image with the Plasma Rifle in it, and couldn't find good ones of the others. I'll slip'em in either when they show up, or take my own screens when Reach ships to fill in the armory.

 

[Sporran]

This is why i try to avoid hype, wanna upgrade my standard game preorder now :lol

 

[Xblog]

Excellent OP . Can't believe it's only one week away.

Awesome OP !

I really hope Bungie's last Halo will be the definitive game in the franchise.

Hope...

 

[delume]

Beautiful OP. So ready for this.

 

[Jex]

Wait, so this mean Reach is out in a week?

/faints.

 

[Nelo Ice]

This is why i try to avoid hype, wanna upgrade my standard game preorder now :lol

i gave in and upgraded to the limited edition :lol

 

[Gowans]

I can't wait for this

 

[les papillons sexuels]

isn't there also a sanctuary remake?

also, no info on the new wildlife or world makes me sad, space squirrel and porky will be missed.
