Fanboys and girls are counting down the days until the highly anticipated prequel, Halo: Reach, hits store shelves in less than a month. Unfortunately, some people can’t wait in line like everyone else – resorting to pirate sites – but it takes a special kind of thoughtless thieving jerk to then post the game’s ending on the internet.
The ending to Bungie’s final Halo game has been leaked on the web and can currently be viewed on YouTube if you look hard enough. I won’t go into detail about what happens in the game’s ending, but it’s a pretty decent conclusion for a Halo game (considering that they almost always just set up for another game in the series afterwards).
For those of you hoping for Master Chief to show up… maybe he’s in there. I’m completely joking, we’ve already learned that Master Chief would not physically appear in any capacity in Halo: Reach other than his voice being used to narrate multiplayer games.
Halo: Reach is looking to be the best Halo game ever – which comes as no surprise considering it’s Bungie’s last hoorah for the tent-pole franchise they created. Noble 6 is comparable to Master Chief in badass-ness, and the best part – he’s completely customizable. So if you really feel the need you could probably recreate The Chief – and tear through the campaign as him.
I’m not going to post a link to the video but it shouldn’t be too hard to find on YouTube – at least until Microsoft succeeds in pulling all the videos down. The game designer is reporting that the Reach finale videos are being pulled down almost as fast as they pop up, so if you want to spoil the end of the blockbuster – check it out ASAP.
Halo: Reach can be legitimately obtained through retailers on Sept. 14 only on Xbox 360.
Stay tuned to Game Rant for a full review of Halo: Reach in the coming weeks.

Just found it on youtube and watched it. Really looking forward to playing this. I actually enjoy the Halo campaigns quite a bit (yes, even Halo 2) and playing this co-op looks to be just as fun as the others. Can’t wait to bring home Bungie’s swan song!
Not me, I’m gonna wait for the full game. This is a spoiler-free zone.
i think i saw the right vid idk for sure, there was gameplay after the credits is that then one you saw riley ?
Yep! That’s the one jwalka
it wasn’t all that great i mean its a prequel, so we already know how it’s going to end.
i wonder what will happen if by some freak chance a player can kill all the elites hehhee it would be cool if there was another ending (the noob in the vid didn’t actually bother killing anything so there’s hope)
The end is pretty much exactly what I expected too.
I agree! I think it would be pretty cool if there was an alternate ending for those who stuck with it and tried to kill the elites, but I think they just keep coming until… you know.
It’s been confirmed that fighting off the elites for over an hour at the end before dying does nothing to the ending. Also, the vid isn’t the “legendary” ending it says it is. There is currently no special ending for beating the game on legendary or for doing so after getting all of the data pads hidden throughout the game. The current speculation is that an update will be made available soon after the game comes out that will add the special ending.
so you also saw the stuff after the credits, ahhh i was hoping we would see a litle more of cortona and master cheif.
Master cheif shouldnt be in this game, mainly because he was barely becoming a spartan when Reach was destroyed
Well, he was on the Pillar of Autumn in cryo-sleep.
SPOILER
in the ending of reach, you help the autumn launch, and then almost immediately after, the game ends with the first 2 lines from Halo CE
what! no he wasnt you idiot read the full story
It’s Bungie’s last Halo game. 343 Studios is taking over the series from here on out
343 is the only group I would trust to take over the series. They know their stuff, and are completely responsible for all of the live-action commercials and the entire ilovebees phenomenon. BTW, there is no legendary ending. That vid was the regular ending. We’re expecting a patch that adds the new ending on or soon after launch date.
I think the planet in Halo 3 Legendary ending, is Reach! Just watch the nebula, and the figure of the planet. I think it’s the same. And you could saw something in the very ending. So I hope, we can go back to Reach in Halo 4.
