Halo Reach: Panoramas
5/5/17 Update – I was asked earlier in the year to get these uploaded again. They’ve been sort of sitting around in my Flickr gallery but this page hasn’t been updated to make ’em viewable in a long while. If you click the images it should pop up in full size. If there are issues with that just click the Flickr link below. I hope you enjoy!
*I’m updating this post to include new panoramas from the recent release of Halo Reach. All of the panos I made from the beta can still be viewed at the bottom of the page or in the gallery.* Below are some panoramic images I’ve create from Halo Reach screen shots. The landscapes which Bungie brings to the table are too epic to leave on the TV screen. As I create new panos I’ll update below. Enjoy!
