Well, I do remember Frank saying something to the effect of seeing the trailer looks "old" to him due to all the work that had been done after the trailer was made. The trailer is no where near the finished product.

If you do not post up poof, I call BS. Its common knowledge that the Classic maps in CEA are just maps for Reach. This is not news. I have read nothing to lead me to believe they will have AA's on the classic maps. CEA is a one disk game with MP maps that play on the Reach MP system. It's not completely like ODST was, you will not get a complete set of maps for Reach on CEA. Also, you do not have to own Reach to even play the classic maps. Its like a MP option that uses the Reach MP system for MM.

I should be home on release day. My wife has already pre-ordered it. She plays Halo as well, and so do our two sons. We are a halo family, lol. When something new comes out, there is a special place in the budget for it.

Um..best day ever, spongebob squarepants.

They should be......why would B.net give us Bungie nameplates if they were to be taken away in a month? I think everything will just be transferred over

Would you like to join me in dodging rockets, bullets, and mortors for a living? Just to save some guy's life you dont even know...

This is Me. I am a Combat Medic. HHC, 1st of the 18th Infantry Battalion, 2nd Heavy Brigade Combat Team, 1st Ifantry Division, United States Army. HOOAH! This a pic of me and my Lt. Me and several guys in my platoon. RockBand!!!! Me and a buddy doing some medical training, that is one of our armored medical Evac vehicles back there. This is my buddy, Hale. And behind him is what we call an Ambulance. Pretty Sweet, huh? Well, thats about it. I will slowly add pics here and there over time...

Ok...the DLC doesnt download to a game disk. Example...rockband, if you download some songs, I have noticed that almost every RB game will use the DLC. I would imagine that if you have the Noble or Defiant map packs, they will still show up either way. I dont know about CEA tho. At worst, and it looks this way, you will have to take out the CEA disk, and put in the REACH disk to play the other maps. Frank did put out that in the future, the classic maps will be added as DLC for REACH, so you will not need the CEA disk to play them, you can use the Reach disk at that point. I believe that as of now, you will have to use the CEA disk to play the classic maps, and the Reach disk to play Reach MP. It really isnt a big deal.

whatever the legendary edition is, i will get it. I have all the rest. I hope there is a H4 Console as well, I will have to pick that up, too.

All they would have to do is change the ranking system, leave Cr in place to buy stuff, use EXP to gain rank....then your Rank would be a direct reflection of your abilities as far as competitive play goes. Cr buys armor and EXP buys Rank and you only get EXP based on how well you play and it can go up and down. It wouldnt be exactly like H3, and it shouldnt be, its a new game, but it would get rid of the "you played xx amount of hours so you get this rank" garbage that Reach has. Best of both worlds.

Not going to Happen, this is a 360 only thing....

Come on, Reach is not even close to COD. Load outs are not like classes. AA's are not like Perks. Reach is not the same as H3, but it is far from the mindless garbage that COD is.

Why will you need to download anything? You put in the Disk, and PLAY REACH MULTIPLAYER. They have put out that the TU is to make it all work.

I want a Scorpion with AL. FTW

Well, Frank said in the videos posted on this site they have been working on it for 2 years.

Um, if you turned your head to make MC look that direction....would you NOT be looking at the TV anymore? i would disable mine and OWN everytime someone looks away...ha ha ha

Ok, even tho I wasnt asking you.... Define "noob". I, being around for awhile, thought it meant someone new to something...in this case, Halo. What if a 8yr old has been playing reach since release day? Would he still be "new"? My 8yr old son has been playing since release day, and was playing H3 on release day.....if he jumped on H3 right now and owned you in a bad way, would you call him a "noob" as well? What about my 3yr old son, he has been playing Reach since it dropped. He just made Captain, is he a "noob"? I do know that when the 8yr old got that kiltac on team slayer, he pissed some people off. Just like the 3yr old did when he got that tripple.....I am not saying they are Pro level players, but dang, they can take people by surprise.

Could be, I dunno. But just because it isnt a clone of H3 doesnt mean its a bad game. Even if its like Reach, doesnt mean its a bad game, Reach could be one heck of a game if it just had a few tweaks.

Um, are you an adult? If you are, wanting to "own" eight year old children on a video game is just weird. Do you feel threatened by them? Can you not win a MP game against them on Reach or H3? I am strangely confused...

Do I get a prize?

I believe the shipped more copies of reach on release day then H2 or H3. Besides, how would people not playing as much later effect how it sold on release day?

It has been put out by 343i....CEA will be 2 player CO-OP. Watch the videos that have been posted on this site.

You know....sometimes something great needs new people around it to awaken it and take it to the next level.

Thats the thing...I read far too often "If its not exactly like xxxx, I am not buying it". Grow up people, do you really think 343i is going to spend millions of dollars developing a game that only suits a small group of people? Nope. Its sad...343i is trying to make a large number of people happy. Point is, there will be good things and bad things. I take the good with the bad, nothing is ever perfect.

First of all, I am not a Kid. There is a pretty good chance I have more experience at life and Halo then you ever will. Second.....NONE OF US MADE HALO:REACH. So, don't bother trying to blame any of us for your dislike of a game, grow up, it just makes you look stupid. With your logic, CE isn't Halo.....it didn't have a BR. When you learn how to make an intelligent statement, and you hit puberty, feel free to debate this subject with me.
