Product description

Edition:Limited

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.

Must-Have: Super Amazing

Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2020

Edition: LimitedVerified Purchase

So amazing. Other than Halo 3 and Combat Evolved, most Halo games aren't really super awesome for me, and this one is no different. Everyone says this game's story is great and emotional but I really didn't get that. The game never gives you time to enjoy or care for the characters since most of them are annoying and bland, unlike the ODST cast. Even so, it's not at all a bad game, and is cool. And this special edition is one of the best I've ever had. The box is thick and big and super cool. It came with Halsey's personal and scientific journal, which was really cool to read and had some really interesting lore. It also came with some cool pictures and access to some in-game add-ons, which were nice. Not to mention the price, which was great. If you're a fan of Halo, I highly highly recommend this

Had a blast blasting the Covies

Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2012

Edition: LimitedVerified Purchase

I will try to keep this short since I'm sure there are lots of long reviews. I lucked into this Limited Edition at the low price of $27.99 with Prime shipping, otherwise I'd never have bought it; I'm mostly over the urge to get 'extras' with my games at this point since I'm running out of storage room. I confess I haven't broken the seal on the special stuff, though that's mostly because I didn't want to damage any of it accidentally. The extras are neat to have in my collection though.

I also didn't buy this intending to play it online and probably won't ever, since everyone else is playing Halo 4 right now anyway. Nope, I actually had this for months before breaking it out finally since I have been pretty busy. This week however I was sick and playing Xbox was about the only thing I felt like doing, so out it came. And man, what a great time I had with it.

A little background hopefully without spoiling the story: Reach takes place before the original Halo games. Most probably know what the deal is but I won't address that, I'll just say you're not going to play Master Chief here. Nope, you get to choose a mysterious new Spartan addition to Noble Team. I chose the female because I thought it was neat to have that as a choice for once. 'Noble Six' is similar to the Master Chief in that he or she lacks a name or much in the way of background other than hints in the dialogue. I however am drawn to the opportunity to fill in the blanks in my mind, though I suppose not everyone feels that way.

When the original Halo was released, I worked at a certain national video game retail chain, and one of the freebies we got was the first Halo-branded novel by Eric Nylund - again don't want to spoil things, so you can look it up if you're interested. Normally I hate serialized fiction, but I honestly loved that book, and knowing the basic back story made me anticipate this game more. When well executed, as I feel Reach and the novel were, I really enjoy finding out other details of a given 'universe' in fiction.

One thing I read in other reviews was that players didn't feel any emotional connection to the other Noble Team members, but I certainly did for most of them.

Another complaint was that the game got rid of some fancy toys from Halo 2 & 3 - my response to that is again, this game takes place FIRST. Yes it would have been 'cool', but honestly playing this game felt incredibly similar to my first time playing through the original Halo on the original Xbox. It was a little simpler in terms of controls/weapons/vehicles than 2 & 3, and I enjoyed the return to the 'roots' of the gameplay. The same person also complained it was too linear - while I haven't played those in several years, again Reach feels like the original Halo and I found that other than the Noble members telling you to hurry up with the objective, you could easily run around the edges of the environments and explore for a while.

My first time through was on 'easy' because I wasn't sure how hard it would be and I just wanted to get through it. That took me about 9 hours or so, not super long but IIRC, about the same length as Halo 2 was. I've started a 'normal' game now that I feel like my skills are a little more honed, and it's nice knowing where some of the more powerful weapons are hiding. No idea how long that will take since I am in school, but I will probably finish it at least once more.

Overall I really enjoyed this; I love the series and while online matches are awesome, my time is more limited now so it was nice having a solid campaign to fall back on. I hope this review helps others make their decision to purchase.

Too bad I had to pay taxes

Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2018

Edition: LimitedVerified Purchase

Too bad I had to pay taxes, but the packaging of this product and the amount of information it brings, the collector's box and presentation is great, for the current price is worth to buy. Halsey's journal is very detailed, it looks like if it was handwritten, it even counts with "coffee stains", a couple of new (or so it looks like for the bombardments mentioned). If you count with an Xbox One or a 360, make sure to get it, after all it is a great collector's edition, glad I managed to get one. Mix this with the original Fall of Reach Book or the "Definitive Edition" and will have a great understanding, you won't just enjoy the game but the diary and books also. Keep in mind the box reflects some patterns with light, so I would recommend to keep it a place where it doesn't receive direct sunlight.

Yep. Pretty awesome.

Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2013

Edition: LimitedVerified Purchase

I'm a mother of two boys and bought this game for my older son. He loves Halo and I wanted to not just give him the game but find him a little something special with it. This is definitely special.
It elicited shrieks of happiness and literal jumps for joy! It has a ton of extra features that are really enveloping for a fan of the game and series like the journal. A cool addition that takes you a bit deeper into the story.

This is definitely a winning set and I would highly recomend it over the basic version. Especially if you're purchasing as a gift. Might as well go the extra mile and be a gift giving superhero!

It really is well packaged though, sturdy construction, doesn't look cheap at all, and seems like something you would treasure for years and years to come. I'm really happy with this and wish all games put this much care and effort into special packaging. It really reflects well on the franchise and shows an attention to detail you don't see all that often anymore.

Solid special edition

Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2019

Edition: LimitedVerified Purchase

This was a used purchase, but it came with everyone. It was a solid buy for a special edition. Great journal to add to your shelf/book collection. Patch is nice too amongst the other items.
Box is really cool in of and itself. Soo good I designed a 3d printable version to use on its own because it is cool.

This limited edition sets the standard of what a limited editon and special edition should be!

Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2016

Edition: LimitedVerified Purchase

I bought this months ago, and I have to admit, its one of my favorite limited editions I had ever purchased. It came with everything, and the details and depth of it is incredible. It feels like reviewing an old evidence case; actually it is made that way. There was only one thing I didn't like, and that was the outer protective lining that slides off all of the time. It doesn't have a bottom, so it slips and slides off of the black box kind of casing. It's annoying, but not enough to deduct a star on. Overall, its amazing!
