What you talkin about? Halo Reach is my favourite Halo game. I loved Noble team and their fate, especially the end... survive

D-Joe stats show(ed) that he beat it in 6 hours and 30 minutes on legendary. 

hardest level ive come across is still library on legendary

Im not sure why we are comparing Halo games as they have all been good. everybody is going to have there favorites whether it's because nostalgia or not. I will simply say this. Amazing game. Story was great, multiplayer is the best I've seen in the last few years, and tons of content. Maps are also well done which is what I thought reach failed in. A few guns are over powered right now but Im sure they will get fixed soon.

Oh there was.  The Bungie forumz were furious at Reach.  Seriousky there was some major hatred of that game from a lot of hardcore Halo fans.

Anyways Reach was amazing but Halo 4 is far superior

The bungie forums are furious with every new halo game...    Why did Halo 2 doesn't look so good as at E3 200(3)? Why does the handgun/pistol suck so hard compared to CE?  Why is the multiplayer from Halo 3 horrible compared to Halo 2? To much complains about Halo wars/Halo ODST..Then reach..And Halo 4 will get lot of complaints aswell...First the Wooow and the awesome comes....after that vibe people will see the issues..

To a degree I agree abiu always a vocal fanbase for Halo complaining but Ive been there for every Halo and Reach definitly pissed off the most fans.

The proof is in the player count. Reach had a far faster dropoff than Halo 3 did in online multiplayer

Really, everytime we had a thread where a fanboy came in and said 'Halo is not that popular anymore...Proof  Reach because that sold less than Halo 3 and multiplayer drop of'..

And always we got the answer 'Yes because it doesn't have MC and is a spin off' +  Halo 3 had no competition with an very popular COD'.

Considering Halo 4 plays, for the most part, identically to every game before it I don't see how Reach is a failure. Though I think 343 was getting their feet wet with the franchise. They did a few changes with Halo 4, but they didn't really overhaul the gameplay mechanics. I think with Halo 5 there'll be huge changes that'll really invigorate the series.

I personally found Reach to be a step up from ODST.

ODST was in turn a huge step up from Halo 3.
