A zoomer born in 97-2000 would of had Halo 3 and Reach as core experiences.
And younger zoomers grew up on iPads not eternal.

pros
>actually a team of Spartans after years of playing as Chief wandering around alien installations alone massacring shit alone
>you know how it's going to end and see the other Spartans disappear one by one
>even more variance in vehicle levels

cons
>other Spartans are way too special snowflake and quippy with OC donut steel armor sets compared to Chief being an autistic piece of military hardware
>no thicc Cortana shoving her juicy hips and chest in your face
>retconned a book published a few years before the game came out, which doesn't matter as much now but was weird at the time

I enjoyed it a lot less than 2 and 3 at the time but on a replay I give it more credit than I used to. still a step down from the core trilogy.

From this point until the end of the campaign was Kino as fuck. The only good part before then was the song that plays while chasing the zealot in winter contingency.

You were 12. I was too. I loved Reach when it came out, but after replaying the campaign on legendary in MCC last year I can say it's absolutely not as good as I thought it was. Yes, I am aware of the higher tick rate causing AI to behave differently from the 360 release, but it was still a slog to go through. Multiplayer isn't much better either, and I'd take Halo 3 over Reach even with its slow projectile speed, though I'd rather be playing 2 or 5. It's probably the Halo I'd want to replay the least, campaign or MP, though 4 is a close contender.

5 had better gameplay, maps, and balance than Reach. It also had (prior to MCC updates) 60fps and centered reticles. Even with MCCs changes Reach is an inferior experience.

It was just as terrible as 3. The only half way decent title was the first one and it just went downhill from there.

If you just took Reach, swapped out the DMR for the Halo 2 BR, removed armor lock from matchmaking and made the sniper not rape vehicles it would be the greatest fps of all time.

Lol no. The exaggerated contrast of the fake HDR made me drop the game an hour in.

I remember invasion being so much fun. Especially on Spire, trying to get assassinations by jumping down off the tower.
Lots of people seem to hate armor lock but I don't ever remember seeing it very much. I feel like it and other armor abilities were absent from a majority of game modes/playlists.

It completely killed big team battle since it rendered a bunch of vehicles near useless.
Even if you didnโ€™t even select it, the threat of you having it was still enough.

The devs knew they were actually competent
They knew they were making a good game like they have before
They leaned into the game's hype and spectacle and awe to further compliment the excellent gameplay

And it all came together into a neat little package... all for just 60 bucks. A steal compared to all the putrid slop game that modern day savages ask 80 dollars apiece for.

Modern devs just don't get it.
