Halo: Reach

Halo: Reach is one of the issue’s most prominent supporting features, with the front cover specifically advertising:

“Must-see info! Halo: Reach – Every last detail and screen inside!”

This makes the issue especially appealing to Halo collectors looking for contemporary pre-release coverage from the period before the game launched.

Just Cause 2

The main editorial focus is Just Cause 2, with the contents page giving it a large feature spread under the heading:

“Tropical Island Mischief – Just Cause 2”

The feature highlights its destructive open-world gameplay and large tropical setting, giving the issue strong relevance to fans of Avalanche Studios and open-world action games.

Other Notable Gaming Content

The magazine also covers a wide range of major 2010-era titles including Alan Wake, Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Batman: Arkham Asylum, Fallout: New Vegas, FIFA World Cup, Guitar Hero: Van Halen, Metal Gear Solid, Nier, Splatterhouse, Lost Planet 2 and more.

The contents pages also include regular Xbox 360 sections covering:

  • Xbox Live
  • DLC
  • gaming news
  • previews
  • reviews
  • community content
  • upcoming releases
  • industry opinion
  • downloadable games and online features

Disc

The contents pages include an “On The DVD” section advertising video content, trailers and other magazine extras.

A physical DVD is not clearly shown separately in the supplied photographs, so this listing should be treated as for the magazine only unless the disc is independently confirmed.

Condition

Pre-owned condition with visible age and handling wear.

From the supplied photographs:

  • Front cover remains colourful and visually strong.
  • Noticeable creasing and waviness around the top edge.
  • Light to moderate corner and edge wear.
  • Some surface rubbing, scuffing and small marks visible across the front.
  • Lower edge shows minor handling wear.
  • Spine appears intact and pages remain attached.
  • Interior pages appear generally clean, bright and readable.
  • Some natural page curvature and light edge wear are visible internally.
  • Back cover shows light wear and rubbing around the edges and corners.
  • No major tears or large missing sections are apparent in the photographed areas.

Overall, this is a good reader / collector copy with noticeable but normal age-related wear, rather than a mint example.

Please study all supplied photographs carefully, as they form part of the condition description and show the exact item being supplied.
