    My son used to own a copy of this game until someone stole it from him. He saw it in Best Buy and smiled again. I heard the game wasn't really all that great compares to Halo's other versions, but it was "gold" to him. I'm just glad that Best Buy had a copy.

    I bought this game for my 13 year old son after lots of review searching. I did not want a game with excessive cursing, blood, realistic violence, etc. and this game I am very happy with inthat respect. It will s a shooting game but with robots.

    It would've been nice if it was in The Master Chief Collection. Problem I had was the wrapping was off but the game was supposed to be new. DLC is free and no microtransactions. I'm playing it on Xbox One through backwards compatibility.

    halo reach is really good and great game.storyline is good and multiplayer is especially living dead.this game is awesome but it is not gears of war 3.custom game is great but it can lag fast whyen someone joins and that annoys me.the assasinations are great and really epic and the campaign really brings together the whole trilogy(storyline).lot of new weapons too but if you are not a halo fan you should not get this game.the last level lone wolf is kinda weird but awesome,because you don't stop fighting until you die,that can be either good or bad.the forge is great too because you have a chance to make your own map.i would still recomend gears of war 3 though.the ranks are great too,i am like already a high rank.this game is ok for kids and has blood,but not a lot.so just go get this game!

    We bought this as a gift for our oldest son. He seems to enjoy this. As far as game play and such goes...I really haven't played it yet so I can't give an honest review. All I know is he's playing it often!

    Great Multiplayer, Decent Single Player

    Having played all the previous Halo games, this was a must for me. I had been truly curious about what type of story they have in this prequel and also to check out new multiplayer modes. So I have completed the story once and completed first 4 or 5 ranks in multiplayer and here is what I think. PROS. AMAZING GRAPHICS IMPROVEMENT: I remember seeing Halo 3 for the first time and my jaws literally dropped; however, that was because we went from Xbox to Xbox 360, a newer more powerful machine. Afterwards, when ODST was released, there was a slight graphical improvement, but now if you compare Halo to Halo Reach, you can see there is clearly a Major difference. Things look so much nicer, sharper. The different colors are very easily distinguishable from each other and most importantly, each character (specially their armor) and object is animated to the very last detail. JUST GORGEOUS. ARMOR UPGRADE: My second favorite thing in Halo. Completing story and competing online gives you credit and you can use this credit to buy armor, some equipments, logos and whatnot. This truly adds RPG element to the game. Promotes you to play more. Very important improvement. PERKS: I am not sure what they call it, but I will refer to them as perks. Basically, now your character, can either run fast, fly with a jetpack, have healing shield bubble, can create a decoy of himself or can create impenetrable shield around his body. I loved the jetpack and decoy perks. Just adds a whole new dimension to the play. Love how you can fly over a player and shoot. Love how you can throw your decoy and attract bloodthirsty crowd to attack it from their hideout and just get them big time. MULTIPLAYER: To me this is the strongest aspect of all the Halo games. Each time they come up with something that will keep players playing multiplayer for ages. This time around you can have many of the previous modes (Equivalent to deathmatch, grab skull and such) , but on top of it you also have new modes such as Infection. Basically, you either have to defend yourself from other team that has vampire like ability (and a freaking awesome plasma sword), if you can't you become one of them. Pretty amusing. There are also other modes that will keep you engaged for a long time. DECENT AND SORROWFUL STORY: So Halo 1 starts out as Master Chief being the LAST SPARTAN alive. Don't want to spoil much, but Reach story goes into demise of Spartans and they have done pretty good job portraying it. NEW WEAPONS: There not that many new weapons, but once you get to use are pretty awesome. Don't want to spoil much. CONS. VERY SHORT CAMPAIGN: This was huge just huge disappointment for me. I was hoping since this is the last game in the series that have a long campaign for players like me who appreciate Single Player Campaign. However, at most it was 8 hours long. Honestly, I found it to be quite ridiculous. They still have all the awesome vehicles and what not in the campaign, but for most part it is just killing hordes and hordes of enemies. STILL NO DUAL WEILDING: What the hell? Why did they take it out since Halo ODST. I loved duel wielding weapons and 1-2 combos from needler and charge gun. Why Bungie? Why? VERY FEW NEW WEAPONS: Yeah I was expecting more new weapons than what they provided in the game. A bit disappointed. CONCLUSION: So if you are someone who really dig Multiplayer and not care much about single player that much ADD A STAR to my score, if you are someone who love mainly single player campaign and don't play multiplayer that much REMOVE A STAR. While I personally do wish they would have longer single player campaign, all and all I am happy I bought Halo Reach. Multiplayer truly makes it long lasting experience.

    This game is appropriate for my 13-year-old and I do not have a problem with my seven year old being in the same room.
