Halo Reach

Do you remember Reach? I do.

Halo is a series that my brother and I have played for as long as it has existed. Some of our earliest gaming sessions that we seriously had together were him, me, and a few friends hooking up Xboxes and having Halo LAN parties. It was inevitable that we would get Reach, and play it together. Remember what I said about loving co-op shooters? Halo is the apotheosis of this idea. But it's more than that, too. It's a game whose mechanics lend themselves to being played online, being played in many ways.

My brother and I still play Reach together online from time to time. We love each of the game modes very much. Halo is perhaps the most fun shooter in the whole universe.

That's it. That's all. I kind of want to go play it now.
