hi its me again with a random frag. I don't know if you know or not but they actually put the map packs back up for halo 2 so you can now play matchmaking for halo 2.
That's it for now so Keep on Fagging Trucks.

DeathAbovus

Hey podtac it is I the only person from hell above the earth.Anyway first I would like to say .........Glewis I know I spell my name wrong so get over it. Second I think they should bring back the covenant-like warthog from halo 2. Finally I think they should let u dual wield sentinel beams. P.s Chuckie there is a song called Lvurfr3nz (love your friends) on the halo3 soundtrack that u should play. Keep on fragin midget truck drivers that drive around dusty's house looking 4 stallmeplease who is too busy watchin Marquette basketball and calls Chuck Norris and tells him and foomo to go steal dusty's watches on Chuck's cloud and find fungus oz charging hiz lazer at the midget drivers and sneak in to dusty's house and do a Splinter Cell move and take dusty's watches

Halo Reach

TactualRocket

i was reading my new game forms magazien and saw thar you as the player can drive civilan cars now. i think i heard about a new assination move you can do on enemys. its a rumer and im not sure if its true. and the last rumer if heard is that the Equipment in reach is now been made so you were it insted of deploy it.

Caleb Henley

[1]Hey this is The Gamer28, or cdanhenley, or flippingdude. The Gamer28 is just my gamertag. Anyways, if you didn't know, or I haven't already sent you this, reach is coming September 1. Also, here are some facts about reach. As dusty said, civvy vehicles will be accessable, but the "eagles" as some call them are called falcons. The BR (DMR) will be single shot, but powerful. Warthogs are still there, and there are rumors that the golden warthog will be making a comeback, without mods. Anyways, the aliens will be talking in their native tongue. The new aliens are reletives of the jackals. The needle rifle's bullets will blow up after 3 supercombine shots. Now you understand my point in how I don't right very short submissions. ;-/)
[2]Hello... Again. Sorry for all of my submissions, but I can't seem to group all of them together. Anyways, the vdoc. It was something that I could only dreamed of, except for the reticules. They spread out when you fire them. Why? CoD fans may rejoice, but I don't think it works with halo. Moving on, the DMR and pistol will probably be my favorite weapons. I find new intrest in assassinating people after watching this. Sprinting makes me mad and extremely happy at the same time. MW2 has sprinting and reticules that spread out when you shoot. At first that dimmed my spirits, but then I noticed that it doesn't really matter! Bye and keep on fragging Ps3 owners for it's incredible gaynnes.
[3]Hello again from The Gamer28 who is very sorry for so many submissions. Moving on, the reticules make me mad for the CoD spread that it does when you fire. But then i just noticed, it doesn't matter that much to me. I am pretty sure there will be classes or skill set, and you will switch between characters like in ODST. After watching the Vdoc, I noticed that there was the new "Keg" Grunts, and the new Jackal related alien. Now, to the weapons. The sniper will be awsome, but I will probably choose the DMR over it. The DMR and the pistol will probably my main weapons,  because I like semi-auto guns. Did you notice the pistol will be a cross between Halo: CE and ODST? Well, if you didn't it is. And assassinating seems to bring a need for knives. I am seeing alot of CoD, like sprinting. I'm a little scared for Bungie because of those things. Anyways, the Falcons turrets are usable, and you will ride in them to. That's all for this time, keep fragging trucks. Thanks!

deformed orange

Hey Podtac it’s deformed orange (formerly rabid diharrea) with my opinion on the Halo: Reach ViDoc. I thought it was amazing and I can’t wait until May 3rd for the Beta to come out. Hopefully we will see some of Reach at the GDC and PAX East in March. I love the new shotgun and DMR which looks like a headshot machine. This game will most likely turn out to be the best game of 2010 and will keep people playing it as long as many people do with Halo 3.
Keep on fraggin suicide grunts who are midgets and therefore Foo Mo hates them too.

RicE sNak RozZ

Hey Guys
Well the first ViDox for Reach is out and its making Reach looks more epic than ever. One thought i had was how they are going to manage the big human/covenant battles with over 20 AI at one time. The assasiations looks sweet, but AVP-ish. Reach is looking a lot better too. The texture looks smooth and graphics look awesome. Can't wait for the finished product!
Shout outs to all the Aussies listening and another shout out to Old Regime.
Keep on fraggin' Trucks

Cron0s117

Hey guys, Cronos here with what I think about the New Reach ViDoc. First of all I have to say just from the Alpha of the game its looks amazing and I can't wait for the new DMR and the (Wow)Grenade Launcher! It will take fragging to a whole new dimension. Also one thing I noticed in the video was that there will be Brutes in the game which really saddens me because I thought we could go back to the good old days without having to shoot off a Brute's helmet before getting a headshot. My last thought on this is the graphics. I really think they make the game look beautiful and I just can’t wait to see how it turns out when the beta comes out in May!
Well anyways, Keep on Fragging (with your new noob tube) Brute Chieftains that gang up on you in fire fight with gravity hammers.

Rogue Assassin

Hey guys, it's Rogue submitting for the first time (or at least having my submission read for the first time) I recently checked out the sweet new Reach ViDoc and I was thoroughly impressed. It is truly amazing to see the sweet new AR and the more open environments. The new weapon additions (single shot marksman rifle and grenade launcher FTW!) look sweet and will tie in perfectly to the new style. Much to Dusty's dismay it appears there will be classed based multiplayer or at least that's what I got out of it, but I honestly don't think it would be bad but might make Halo into more Call of Duty. The new orange truck looks a bit like the old passenger warthog but hopefully it won't be. My overall favorite part of the ViDoc is the mention of new, bigger firefights!It will make each new encounter better and with more explosions (reference to big tree getting owned in Avatar) and infantry. The more integrated AI look sweet and will be a better challenge.
Keep on fragging George W driving his warthog with Dick Cheney on a shotgun spree riding shotgun while Condoleezza Rice is on the turret. As Jerome is following bellowing "I protect George W Bush and George W Bush property" then tries to stop them from driving off of a big cliff and landing on the failboat. Dusty suddenly appears with a sniper and realizes if he shoots the George in the fo head he can save Funnyboy and GLewis on the failboat, but they die because Dusty fails at sniping.
Thanks for Reading
Rogue Out
PS. Sorry for the long submission
PSS Does any one else want to see another sniper in Reach?
