Your support makes all the difference.Halo: Reach, the latest futuristic shooter in the blockbusting Halo franchise, has unquestionably been the biggest game of 2010. Making over $200m in first-day sales alone, and getting an average score in reviews of 93 per cent, Reach is a genuine blockbuster.
Set in the year 2552, the game follows the exploits of Noble Team, a spec ops unit serving under the United Nations Space Command, in its desperate struggle to save the 700 million inhabitants of the planet Reach from a merciless coalition of alien races called "the Covenant".
The action unfolds on alien planets and in space, as Noble Team pit themselves against impossible odds and an implacable foe. The player takes control of rookie new member of the team - known only as Noble 6 - who soon emerges as the saviour of Reach.
