Halo: Reach 'bending the Xbox as far as it'll bend,' Bungie assures
"We are... taking every advantage of everything on the CPU and GPU, and every bit of memory in order to produce the look of Reach beyond anything of Halo 3, " creative director Marcus Lehto noted, attributing the evolution -- which also benefits the size of environments and complexity of the AI -- to increased understanding of the hardware. "We're pushing it as far as we can go," Lehto said. "With every iteration we understand what more we can exploit with the hardware."
Chalk up another win for longer console life cycles -- and for long-running franchises.

@IZROCK "iI just made my Donation so when can i be on 10th"
Where did that even come from? Not even the correct game.
But hopefully this game isn't all hype.

If Bungie can go above Halo 3's level then i think MW2 will go out the window. I've never had game rage on Halo, and im hoping if my knowledge of Reach is right there should be some great Spartan, Covenant battles in it and i mean not just one Spartan. An army. The storyline should be awesome.

Cinamatics always look better than the actual thing.
If the massive build of the scenes gets bigger but the game overall still has the graphics level of Halo 3... then this game is just going to be like 3... which
I'm tired off.
I hope the multiplayer experience is like Halo 2's. Halo 2 was much more fun to play because it felt VERY competative. They should also bring the option to customize your armor to minut details and be able to have a dirty variation or clean. I alos would like to beg for helmetless variations as well as more machinma making tools.
Thats what Reach needs.

From what ive read it said it will be insane.
But they also said using riot shields on MW2 would be amazing. They turned out to be an EPIC FAIL.
Plus its Halo......i refuse to buy it!
