This game takes places chronologically before the first Halo game, Halo: CE, but was released in 2010. In Halo: Reach you play as a Spartan supersoldier, but not the Master Chief. It is a fun game and comes with the Halo 3: ODST campaign and a second disc that contains all the multiplayer maps for Halo 3 which allows you to play Halo 3 online. Normal humans who were augmented to be faster, stronger, and smarter than normal people. It takes place during the events of Halo 2, but you play as a normal soldier rather than the Master Chief who is a Spartan. Halo 4 is the next game in line that follows the story of the Master Chief, however, there are two other games that were released between them. Note: Halo 3 will become available for free download on July 1st if you have Xbox Live Gold. Halo 3 is a great game and still has online multiplayer, though it is fairly sparse right now. If you purchased Halo 2 you are probably interested enough in the Halo universe to continue the Master Chief's story. It no longer has online multiplayer, though, so it is only good for local custom games and the campaign. It is for the original Xbox, but is also compatible with the 360 so you can play the campaign. If you are still interested in the story, go for Halo 2 next. It has the entire first game's campaign and a multiplayer portion using the engine from Halo: Reach (we'll get to that in a moment). It is basically the first Halo game, Halo: Combat Evolved, but remastered for the Xbox 360 on its 10 year anniversary. If you are interested in the story I would recommend getting Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary first in order to get an idea of what Halo is about.
"I love telling stories in this universe," she said, "and I am so intrigued with the idea of telling them different ways and exposing the universe to different types of people and players.GET THEM ALL!!!! Just kidding ^^^^^but ^^^^^not ^^^^^really She is shepherding new Halo projects including the current Halo: Nightfall live-action series and the Steven Spielberg-produced series due next year. I think that is a pretty unique experience." "(Bungie designer) Max Hoberman said, "Let's try and recreate the experience and feeling of being on a couch, right there with your friends.'"Īdds Ayoub, with Halo 2, "now all of a sudden I can play multiplayer with my friends without this complicated system of networking things together."Īs Halo evolved over the years, Wolfkill says, "I started to understand more about the universe and the story, I really got pulled into what a big story it was while at the same time I always felt personally connected to the characters. Then Halo 2, released in 2004, had online multiplayer capability on Xbox Live. That's not to say it invented all of these things, but it did a really good job of refining them and making them functional and comfortable on the console."
"I would argue the console space would be radically different without it.
"It is argued that if Halo hadn't come to a console, it just wouldn't have innovated and reinvented a lot of the tropes and techniques we now take for granted in console games," O'Connor said. "You suddenly had college students and regular high school kids and people, dads even, carrying consoles across town and setting up LAN parties and blowing circuit breakers in their basement because of all the drawn power from those old CRT TVs," he said.
The ability to connect Xbox systems together for Halo players to compete with up to 16 players simultaneously accelerated the interest in multiplayer gaming, O'Connor says.
