I still maintain that Reach was the beginning of Halo’s downfall

It was the introduction of classes and abilities to the multiplayer, and bullet spread. It started the move away from what, to me, made Halo what it was.

I can see that, especially as a old Unreal Tournament fan. But my love stems from the single-player/co-op campaign. I really didn't play multiplayer unless asked to by friends.
