Bungie has once again built up Halo: Reach to galactic proportions, saying that they are aiming to make it the definitive Halo experience and that they are expecting a huge marketing push from Microsoft for the last chapter of the acclaimed series.

Talking to the Seattle Times, community director Brian Jarrard said, "We're very optimistic. We have a lot riding on this game and we have high expectations for it."

"We certainly feel Reach will be the best Halo game that Bungie's ever made, and I think Microsoft's going to bet really big behind it," he added.

"This is what Microsoft does really well - big, huge entertainment launches. You're going to see that happen again for Reach."

Yesterday we reported that Bungie expects Halo: Reach to record the biggest console beta launch of all-time, forecasting over three million players on day one.
