The original halo felt to unreal, in the beta i can actually feel my gun. I remember when i was playing invasion....ah fun. i played as an elite and are whole team ragtag-ed the Spartans. we barged through the first round and as soon as those doors opened i headed strait for the spartan laser. by that time my team members already got the generator. lol i got behind the guy. there were 2 guys with swords in front and 2 guys with plasma rifles beside us. there was a guy in a wrath blocking the stair way. i charged my laser and killed him. going up the stairs was military style. up the first floor me and the 2 plasma rifle people turned around and we destroyed a platoon of Spartans coming in. the scorpion tank was coming up so i charged my laser and he started to turn at me and shoot but i got him first. (he knew what was coming ) Then we won.

The only bad thing about the game I have to say is the replacement for the BR... the DMR or something? Anyway, I hated that thing. But I was way to busy assassinating people to use it anyway . And the sprint is definitely one of the best special abilities in the game. Make capture the flag wayyyyy easier.

I didn't like it either, at first. The controls were different, they took out the dual weapon option (which I rather liked), and added the jumping on and killing your opponent by running behind them. Playing Halo 3 online for so long makes me not like the feel of Reach much either, but I said the same thing when I first played ODST. But, hey, I like the first Halo over its successors, anyway.
