I am a casual Call of Duty player and have never owned a Halo.
I am looking for a game i can just hope on once or twice a week to have fun when im getting pissed @ Black ops
What are your opinions on the game?
Is there a better Halo in the series?
Having never owned a Halo before, you probably won't have any expectations of Reach and will probably enjoy it. Reach has the most options for the casual gamer (i.e. playlists, firefight, campaign) of all the halo series. Most of my complaints about Reach (mainly the spawn system) won't really be an issue if you're just playing casually; I actually like the bloom aspect and it shouldn't take you long to get used to it.
All in all, Bungie made Reach for casual gamers like you, and did a pretty good job of it. In doing so, they screwed over people who like to play seriously (like most of the Halo subforum) so it gets bad ratings around here. I'd recommend it, as it should be fun for you and won't be going away any time soon.
