Halo: Reach Review Community Center Geeks' Lounge by Glass_Joe [ATTACH=RIGHT]17297[/ATTACH]This is it. You’ve aged that cache of Mountain Dew Game Fuel in your finished basement for three years since [I]Halo 3[/I].

True, it was a change of pace since you weren't as well-protected as the MC, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. The soundtrack was excellent imho, and the voice acting was great. The character's … Re: Halo: Reach Review Community Center Geeks' Lounge by EvolutionFallen [QUOTE=mjhurdle;1339287]Bungie put more effort and time in changing the menus and lobby appearance than they did advancing the game-play of Halo Reach.[/QUOTE] Right on. As you said, Glass_Joe, the maps seem to melt together. They all just feel really monotonous. I feel like I'm just playing the same maps all the time -- small selection, and … Re: Halo 3....
