Guns Blazing: A Review of Halo Legends

I had been meaning to watch Halo Legends for quite some time, but for various reasons not worth getting into didn't for a long time, despite it even being available for instant streaming on Netflix.

However, I finally got around to it. Overall I'd say it was pretty good, but similar to the Animatrix, it's hard to judge the collection as a whole, since they are all quite different (not just in terms of tone, but also animation style, studio, etc.) Instead I'll be doing a series of short thoughts on each of pieces.

[Spoilers in all the following, so if you care, don't read]

Less Canon, More Cannon: A Review of Halo Reach

I had actually been planning to wait to write this review. The point being, I don't actually own Halo Reach; my friend bought it, and I played through the campaign co-op with him as well as borrowing it on a few occasions. I figured I should give it a more thorough playthrough, get to really know it, before I wrote a review.

This was before I've had it sitting in my room for the last 3 days, where when faced with free time I played Gears of War 2,  L4D2, and SC2 unless specifically asked by someone else to play Reach. So before I get into details on the game, a tl;dr would be that Halo Reach is merely ok. It works as a social game, but it'll never be something that's my go-to game, nor will I ever buy it unless it gets down to the $20 price point.
