Halo Reach Release Date

[Ruze789]

Yesterday it was announced that Reach will be released on September 14 2010!!

Some mathematically inclined webpeople also figured out that there are exactly 117 days between the end of the Beta and Reach's release.



For more a little more info on the release and some stats from the Beta, go here: Bungienet Link



Also announced was this little bit of news:

[quote name='Bnet']As a special bonus, fans can receive a token to unlock an exclusive in-game Spartan Recon Helmet, by picking up a copy of the game on launch day at North American retail stores, and outside of North America by making a pre-order reservation at participating retailers.[/quote]

They just HAD to bring back Reconz... this does not bode well...



But yeah, awesome! Figures it's not sept. 1st... I'd be able to go...

 

[gmstrowabarton]

Well I am glad it isn't coming out before DragonCon now. It would have been a tease to get it then play for only 2 days and then go to DragonCon.

Yay, Sept. 14, good to know, I hope grenades are not super nukes in the final game. :rolleyes

[Brandon McClain]

Sweet! That gives me a little more breathing room on getting the MKV(B ) done! I am soooo there all dressed up!!!

 

[ACDCrockr209]

Good thing I preordered.

Yeah, me too!



The Recon attachments look sweet! Do you think the helmet gets good signal with that thing on its dome?

Yeah, think it will get in international channels? xD

 

[rvb18]

[IRSHCWGRL]

Bet It Has Wifi!

 

[Ruze789]

One or two of the preorder sites say it is a Blast Shield in stowed position.

 

[AlexSpartan177]

Maybe it flips down to protect the visor or something

 

[Serpent ZX]

Yup, hopefully I will be there dressed up too. Either as my own Spartan, or MC...

 

[Col Keller]

i guess i have a set date to get my armor done then...



let the countdown begin!

 

[mc halo3]

I will be at my local eb games on launch party here in Australia picking up my Legendary edition in my odst costume or MKVcoolcostume if finished.

 

[church 957]

Looks like il be calling in "sick" on the 15th then.

 

[HaloGoddess]

I pre-ordered my copy of legendary, but that Recon helmet sure looks pretty funny.



If you have a creative imagination, it almost looks like there is a mini set of bull horns on his helmet! lol

 

[wolfeborne]

I still haven't pre-ordered I read something about there being a Reach Edition 360, but don't know if that is going to happen now with the slim. Does anyone know if the legendary is going to be a limited run? I bought mine at launch for 135 while my friend got his for 40 four months later.

 

[whiteninja1990]

I'm gonna pre-order as soon as I get cash.

In a Bungie Weekly Update from a couple weeks ago, they showed the updated Recon helmet, apparently they weren't too impressed either:
