Quoting limited to 4 levels deep

50+ years would like to have a word with you.

That's rather presumptuous. Gaming has only been a popular phenomenon for about 30 years, so you have no way of knowing how much staying power today's games will have in 50 years. Also, there's the fact that games have changed drastically, and ultimately all Reach has to offer is fun gameplay. Halo's story is not especially compelling.

With every year it gets bigger I really don't see how it will die.

You can say that about any number of popular video game franchises. Sonic, anyone?

Nice dude. And wow, some people in that game were already Captain grade 2. Don't they even have school, a job, or a social life?

Threw a sticky grenade at an elite on legendary and it didn't die... wat.
Every other Halo meant that it was instant death yet this game is a sad excuse for Legendary. They just let the AI cheat in 4x more health and other junk... Just playing that drove my want to purchase this soon back, although I'd still get it.

Legendary's pretty frustrating i this game, especially the last level. There's a room with 4 zealots, 1 with a sword, 1 with a plasma cannon, and two with dual plasma rifles. Then, there's tons of grunts, and an engineer providing an overshield. That spot killed me so many times.
