D0419 T1356 Y2010Invading the Details

You may remember Hoovaloov from his redefining analysis of the Halo Reach Multiplayer Trailer. Amidst the breathless leadup to the preliminary unveil of Halo Reach, our own Hoov has become the resident curator at TTL, keeping track of all of the pearls of intel to escape the calculating jaws of the Bungie Hype Machine. With new details emerging about the Invasion gametypes, he is wielding his digital scalpel once again to disect the finer points of the offering. We are, of course, happy to share these insights with a ravenous public of will-be combatents.

No, no, no… Don’t watch it here. Take the jump to HiDef!

With Halo 2 officially laid to rest, there is nowhere to look but forward. The king is dead. Long live the king. The Beta is just within Reach. [get it?]

The TTL Gunslingers – no doubt along with the rest of the Halo Nation – are poised on the border, waiting for the gates to swing wide. Ready up and get some!

We will see you on the beach.

    Awesome Job Hoov.

    Invasion will kick ass, I’m enjoying the hell out of Rush in BFBC2 which sounds very similiar.

    Didn’t the guy say on GTTV that invasion was BTB? Unless 6v6 is the new BTB
