At Walmart if you buy the game, special or regular edition, you get a $20 Walmart giftcard! ... At least in Colorado. (I don't have the game, but was with my friend when he got it)
I'm really enjoying the story to reach, and I've played around with the forge level editor which is pretty good, the only other halo sequel I bought was halo 2 which I didn't like and it seriously put me off gettin halo 3 and O.D.S.T but reach looked interesting from the off.
the cool thing about the new forge is the capabilities of it. the other one worked but was very limited, to combine objects into each other you had to do variety of glitches, same with making objects float. Now it's just...there. from the get go.
lol... i haven't heard that one before... no, but seriously i probably heard that about a hundred times during matchmaking the first night. i'm lovin' the reach multiplayer. i've been playing it constantly. i played through the campaign twice, once on normal and then solo on legendary. i'll be playing this game for quite a while. probably until Gears 3 comes out, then I'll take a short break and then come back to it.
