I've had it since Thursday. Beat it on Normal, and almost finished my Legendary playthrough

This game is in no way, shape or form worse than Halo 3 or ODST. By far the best Halo game I've played and I've only played one Slayer match online.

The game is obviously scoring lower than Halo 3 because times change. Expectations change. A 95/96/97 THEN would probably not score a 95/96/97 NOW. Quality has improved vastly on the HD systems and Halo Reach is a prime example of how far we have come since this generation started.

Don't worry people. You wont be upset with the final product... Even if it does end up with a lower Meta score than Halo 3.

i ve seen alot peolpe gettin it early does that mean we'll have SW numbers for it week ending 9/11/10?

I decided a while back that either I would buy Reach or Black ops and after taking a look at what both have to offer it seems reach will be the winner for me. A quality single player campaign and the new forge sold it.

I doubt it. Lots of stores broke the street date for ODST, and I don't think we got any early numbers for that.

themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.
