@Ethan...there were some novels released which tells the story of master chief....I think it was called fall of reach...i read 2 more novels called first strike,ghosts of onyx and flood...
 
How many novels in total are there crvinay? Is the game based on these novels or is it the other way round?
 
Novels are based on the game , novels explained the world and filled the gaps.

also to popularize the game

6 novels in total have been released. There is another in planning.
 
How Master Chief and his spartans are chosen by Dr.Halsey and their augmentation and the mjolnir armour forms the 1st part of the novel.The second part details the covenant invasion of Reach.Then you know the Halo is found by the pillar of autumn when they flee the battlesite.

The other novels fills the gap between games and there is another novel which is the story of the Spartan-II

But seriously,Master Chief was 14 years old during the battle of reach(2525)!!

The story of spartan IIIs , the first spartans were the Greek soldiers of Sparta. spartan IIs were the first spartan batch of Dr. Halsey. Spartan III were trained by Spartan II kurt .

battle of reach happened at 2552, the first contact with covenants at harvest was at 2525.
 
Halo: Contact Harvest (First contact)

Halo: The Fall of Reach

Halo: First Strike ( b/w halo 1 and 2 )

Halo: The Flood

Halo: Ghosts of Onyx ( about spartan IIIs )

Halo: Uprising ( halo 2 and 3 )
 
Finished Halo Reach SP yesterday.
I had been waiting for a FPS game with a good and lengthy campaign (unlike COD, MOH, etc) with engaging storyline.
And I got Reach for that reason only but I'm pretty much disappointed with the campaign. :(

The reason being that the campaign was very short which is pretty abnormal for a Halo game.
There was basically nothing new in the game other than some tweaks here and there.

If you are playing it as your first Halo game (as Ethan did), you're bound to get amazed by the gameplay, enemy AI, story, etc.
But if you have played any other Halo game, you'll get the same here with improved graphics.

I think Bungie this time made it as a MP-heavy game while neglecting the SP.

But then, there are some obvious good components like graphics, armor abilities, fast paced action that is a Halo signature, relentless enemies and last but not the least exceptionally good explosions!!

So, I guess the MP is the best that any game can offer but the SP has been sort of left out a bit.
