This game is impressive.
Does it live up to the hype?
If you followed the Halo series from start to finish, yes. You can see the natural progression of the titles from 1 to 2. Going from 2 to 3 is like hitting warp speed. In the past, you were stuck at 480p and the limitations of an older console ... now ... 1080p, HD visuals, dolby digital surround ... larger capacity discs, better dvd drives, etc.
It's like ... i dunno ... stepping out of a 1992 Accord and getting behind the wheel of an 08. Everything is just ... so damn fresh and pretty, but familiar.
If you haven't followed the Halo series ... no idea what you'll think of this. Your natural instinct is to compare it to what you know and are accustomed to. By all means, this game is not for the fans only ... and should be a must have app for the 360.
Easily, game of the year.

I played online for about an hour total so far and I'm up to Apprentice 2nd grade or something like that. It's the little diamond that's top half full I think. Won two games by a big margin. I pwn faces

I remember playing Jae once.... I think I beat him 25-1.
Oh and Drewski, above you said that the game in 720p was awesome, and then said that it was great in 1080p. Which one is it? I was not aware that the 360 was able to do 1080p.
