One thing I never really noticed up until paying attention to these Reach videos is whenever you pick up a weapon or switch to a weapon there is a cocking the gun animation. Not only are there reload animations for each weapons there are overheating animations for a few weapons and cocking animations. How many other games have that many animations for weapons? I know the COD series doesn't. One thing I used to be impressed with the COD series was the gun models. The gun models in Reach are looking amazing, I think even better than MW2.

On a side note are there any other FPSs out there that show your legs and feet moving when you look down? I can't think of any off the top of my head. Its small details like this, the multiple gun animations, assassinations, and sheer scale of the game that make Reach one of the most impressive technically. It may not be the best looking FPS on the market but graphically its up there with the best and technically could be the best.

Edit: I would like to know how many different assassination animations there are in the game because I've watching many videos and I still have yet to see one repeated. By my count I've seen at least 15 different ones.


Bungie said in their latest Weekly Update that there are between 40 and 50 uniques assassination animations.  Like you said the sheer amount of content in this game is simply astonishing.  In fact here is a pick of a brand new assassination to go along with it, enjoy
