Halo: Reach Synopsis

Halo: Reach, developed exclusively for Xbox 360 by acclaimed developer Bungie, is the blockbuster prequel to the best-selling Xbox franchise of all time. It represents the culmination of Bungie’s 10 years of experience crafting groundbreaking Halo games that have raised expectations for what can be achieved in a video game.

Experience the fateful moments that forged the Halo legend. This is the story of Noble Team, a squad of heroic Spartan soldiers, and their final stand on planet Reach, humanity’s last line of defense between the terrifying Covenant and Earth. This darker story is echoed by grittier visuals amid a backdrop of massive, awe-inspiring environments. Characters, enemies, and environments are rendered in amazing detail by an all-new engine designed to deliver epic-scale encounters against the cunning and ruthless Covenant.

Once the campaign is over, the battle continues online with an unparalleled multiplayer experience expanding on the award-winning suite of features that helped define the Xbox LIVE experience.

The Halo: Reach multiplayer beta, on track to be the largest beta program of its kind on any console, is expected to see millions of participants when it begins May 3. Players can access the multiplayer beta on Xbox LIVE through the Halo 3: ODST disc.

  • Meet Noble Team: For the first time, players fight alongside a squad of iconic Spartan soldiers, each with deadly talents as unique as their individual personalities and customized gear.
  • An intense campaign: Live the events that set the stage for the Halo trilogy as the UNSC and Covenant clash at the height of their military power. New weapons and abilities complement the familiar Halo arsenal for the largest-scale battles ever witnessed in the Halo universe. Fiercely cunning artificial intelligence adds depth and complexity to each encounter, helping make every playthrough a unique and epic experience.
  • Stunning technical advancements: Halo: Reach takes a massive leap forward through all-new engine technology designed to take full advantage of next-generation graphics, audio, special effects, A.I., and animation while continuing to expand on the campaign, cooperative, and multiplayer sandbox in a way that only Halo can.
  • The definitive multiplayer experience: Halo: Reach builds on the success of its predecessors, setting a new standard for competitive gameplay, customization, variety and community integration.
  • Unparalleled feature suite: Halo: Reach expands on the industry-leading suite of features found in Halo 3, including four-player cooperative campaign play, splitscreen support, saved films, screenshots, and exciting new surprises that have yet to be revealed.

@enrageorange: My thoughts exactly.

dsage is just angry his precious ps3 exclusives are bundled as much as 360 ones. At least halo didn't have to start day 1.

lol dsage01 you really don't like Xbox 360 exclusives do you? Every xbox 360 exclusive game section I see you in you always comment about how heavily bundled the games are you claim that they are the most bundled games out their when they really are not. I really wouldn't say being bundled over the holidays with the Xbox 360 via a digital code massively bundled I doubt many people would download such a heavy file.

@ dsage01 - What bundling are you referring too? I believe there was some physical bundles in Europe but I don't think that was massive.

dsage01 (on 24 January 2012)

And people say this game isn't bundled... Agreed it sold great for a couple months but since it is one of the most bundled games on the 360 (after the Fable and Forza series) are the only reason why this game is still selling today. But Halo 3 had a similar bundling to this except it didn't occur 1 and a half year later. Halo Reach was bundled massively in just less than 6 months

10 million with digital bundles easily! Another 10 million+ selling Halo.
