Sammanfattning: The really interesting thing about Halo: Reach is that we know how it ends - no one's walking away from this battle. It's the Total Party Kill of the Halo universe, an epic battle that's been referenced in past games and even written about in the novel...

Fails to truly convey the drama of Reach's fall. Thin characters. Some over-developed Convenant weaponry. Some frame rate losses.
Sammanfattning: Halo broke the mould when it was released on Xbox 360, convincing many for the first time that a first person shooter could be played effectively without a keyboard and mouse. Halo's controller-friendly interface took frustration out of the equation an...
