Not only that, but apparently they'll be getting quite a bit more dialogue in campaign.

And there's the fact that choosing a female Spartan for Noble 6 in multiplayer will carry over to single player.

The character you make is in campaign, firefight, and multiplayer. That's pretty sweet.

There are different voice actors, you pick which one your character will speak like.

Yeah, you choose your character's voice. Though I think it may only be in firefight you choose their voice. The pic I saw that had that said "Firefight Character Voice."

Doubt that here's what Bungie.net said;
Bungie wrote:".....And there’s more. Noble Six isn’t the “strong, silent type,” either. Both male and female voice actors were cast for the role, so whichever gender you choose, you’ll won’t miss out on any facet of the full campaign experience."
As well as saying the voice and character model would be across all modes.

Why would there be a tab to select firefight voice if you don't pick your voice?

That same weekly update specified those "Firefight Voices" would be the other members of Noble Team, so I doubt it's more that just male/female in campaign.

Reach just keeps on getting better and better. I am definitely getting this before TFU II, Old Republic, and Black Ops. 8) :thumbs:

Soooo happy that Blood Gulch is back. The new armor perms and hologram AA are pretty cool.

Dude, that's awesome. Blood Gulch was one of my favorite maps in Halo 2, I'm glad to see they're bringing it back in plus with a totally new look to it. The hologram was pretty awesome. I didn't know they were gonna have that in the game. I'm definitely going to pre-order this.

Blood Gulch ftw. Especially that it's expanded now, it just looks flat-out amazing. I'm also glad that it's a new visual style, I was never a fan of the whole savanna thing it had going on. So glad I preordered this.

The GameStop preorder bonus has been revealed. An ugly chest plate and belt. Weeeeeeeeeee.

If anyone else has a better preorder I'll probably get my money back and get it elsewhere. Neither of those armor pieces look interesting to me.
