E3: Bungie working on Halo: Reach? News • News • Eurogamer.net

News Xbox 360

Rumoured autumn 2010 release.

Not content with Halo 3: ODST, Bungie is rumoured to be working on a second new project called Halo: Reach, due for release next autumn.

Kotaku has a screengrab of a forum menu entry for "Halo: Reach" that supposedly went live before it was meant to do so.

That alone doesn't amount to much, but the site's tipster also promised an autumn 2010 release.

Bungie has simply said "See you on Monday" in reference to its E3 plans, but we wouldn't be surprised to see ODST and other Bungie work later today - if only to help make up for last year's shambles.

The developer has already revealed that Tricia Helfer plays a character called Dare in ODST, as well as a character called hope in our hearts.

@JIGSAW

To date, there have been three Halo titles releases over an 8 year period.
Yeah, it's a fucking avalanche isn't it!

The PSP "card" game kept to its original storyline and progressed it. It was the same genre but they couldnt do a full blown stealth action game because of the platform.

It was still a tactical stealth game.

MGS even got a remake already in Twin Snakes.

So yeah, if you want to accuse anyone of milking a franchise MGS really isn't the series to try and defend your opinion with.

Halo: Reach sounds like some kind of Microsoft "wand" game... : \

Cant blame Microsoft, its nearly all they have really.

Halo reach would mean:
1. No Flood
2. No Brutes, Elites would be the main enemy
3. No Arbiter

Yay!

Funny that, I could of sworn I've played through the PSone MGS on my PSP.
Konami should of called me, I could of helped them out.

This is the game where we get to see how Humanity lost a very important battle, that they got a very humbling...nay ...got utterly thrashed and the Spartan soliders get wiped out and leaving us with John 117 and a few others?!

If so then will be playing against the huge odds, a matter of survival and only to see probably at the end credit to see the planet Reach get glassed anyway!

@ Vistrix: Buddy, you are calling all of us stupid in the strangest way possible. MG Acid is the same genre as MGS4 ?
Try that stunt in some other place, k...?

@ Vistrix:

Halo was originally designed and shown as an RTS, so Halo Wars just went back to the series' roots.

Therefore, your post, and entire argument = Epic Fail!

Bungie "After Halo ODST we're done with Halo"

Source : [link url=http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/bungi e-really-will-end-with-halo-3-odst

Person quoted : Al Murray (comedian, obviously)

I guarantee the next Bungie quote from E3 will be something like "We're not one trick ponies"

........yeah right.

Insert some shit about it being a wand game by some fanboi called Vistrix

Reach is the name of a planet which got glassed by the Covenant before the events of Halo: CE so failure there.

Its funny how its milking when its Halo but MGS "ITZ ALWAYZ THE SAMEZ ROFL SO ITZ OK"

Yeah, the last two games in the series are a perfect example of this.
MGS4 with it's nice consistent 8/10 compared to Halo 3's 10... Oh, wait.

"Except MGS has remained consistent throughout having never losing its quality and appeal, Halo, however, has and will should it continue. "

That's more like it..., good ol-plain never-played and never-will bashing. But MG Acid = MGS4, no! Please!

@ Crofto

According to EG:

Halo :8
Halo 2: 9
Halo 3: 10

Would you like me to list the MGS series scores in comparison to Halo? I guarentee you, IT WILL make you look like an idiot (more so).

Edit: I see people have already pointed out your glaring flaw.

Sure, that's why Halo 3 is one of the higher rated games this generation and millions of us still play it. Ridiculous. MGS is a great series, but get out of here with your ignorant bias.

In 8 years we've had three Halo games and one completely different RTS Halo game and they have all been good. I can't wait to see more about ODST and whatever they eventually show for the next full Halo entry.

I hope its Halo set before the original too, to see the beginnings of the human fall and be part of the battle on Reach would be very cool...

^ Halo : Reach - Spartan Party. (with new MS waggle & Balance Board support)

I'm not a fan of either Halo or MGS - just wish that the big players would come up with something new rather than milk these, and many other IPs, to death. Seems that the only place to get stuff that is different is on PSN / XBLAcade / WiiWare.

I would probably be in hysterics if they rickrolled however many tens of thousands of people will be watching the conference. Impressive, if a bit of a tired meme.

@ Penhalion - I'm pretty sure Master Chief was on Reach along with the the other Spartans and then escaped on the Pilllar of Autumn for the events of the first game. Could be wrong though

Getting kinda tired of all these website "mishaps" leading to early information leaks.

It's getting pretty obvious that the companies are just doing it deliberately now...
