Halo Reach
Halo fans: Get ready to reload. The newest installment, "Halo Reach," comes out today. It's actually a prequel in which a group of soldiers battle the Covenant forces on a planet called Reach. CNET's Dan Ackerman gave it a try.
"The main game play differences in the new Halo are some of the cool new weapons and armor types and accessories that you can carry with you onto the battlefield. Whether it's a jetpack or a set of super armor that you can turn on that makes you impervious to harm, but it also means you can't move," he said. "If you've played any of the previous Halo games, this is gonna look and feel very familiar. Perhaps even a little bit too familiar. It's almost as if the Halo series is due for a kind of visual makeover."
"Halo Reach" goes on sale in 25 countries today.
