Getting this game for the money that Best Buy is giving back? I feel like a champ. Seems like it'll be fun.

@Stealthmaster86: it's basically halo there's nothing really in here that hasn't already been shown in the trailers. 
 
except:  emus
 
the level editor is pretty cool. realtime so you can test it  out in game. That's not a spoiler though

I'm so glad that "legalize da kush" was one of the player that jumped into your matchmaking game. Simply too perfect.

I'm having an issue too, also in Chrome: As of about 10 minutes into the video, the bottom third of the screen gets all wacky and datamoshed.

Sweeet. I'm stoked about Reach. I consider myself an avid Halo fan, but I can't afford games right now. I hope the limited edition will still be for sale by the time I can afford it. Definitely getting this sooner or later in any case, though.

As if the first Halo wasn't one of the absolute best looking games when it came out. As if the first Halo isn't still the best game in the series...

I've pre-ordered it, and it was not even an act of desperation for a good game. Obviously I'm not a 'Halo person' but hell, I did like Halo3, that surprised me 
 
Whats worse, because it was such a good deal with the special offer, I got the limited edition that featured the helmet Vinny was wearing in that Reach mailbag. It just looked so spot on! 
 
Give me that gun I got for 2nd gears of war, and I is ready! C'mon, rifle with a melee chainsaw would totally work in halo, right?

Did the audio go out of sync near the end or am I crazy?  Seems like Forge could really benefit from a PC interface.  Also the menus in this game look slick but that giant blue lower-third that shows mission subtitles is kind of silly.

Looks awesome. The challenges thing has me sold on playing consistently already. When I saw that 5 kills notifier pop up I was super excited. I played Halo 3 a lot in the first couple months but quit and only came back randomly from time to time. I think this game will have a lot more staying power with challenges and including forge world maps into matchmaking frequently.

Yup. It's not awful, only about half a second, but it's there. Someone put out the Dave signal.

I'm excited about the game, and I want to watch more of this Quick Look, but something about Halo gameplay videos always seems to cause motion sickness for me.
