Another entertaining Halo installment. Looks great, sounds great, plays great. A few gripes however.

Why did they feel the need to change the melee and crouch buttons? This served no purpose and several times at the beginning of the game, I was just smaller instead of hitting a space freak.

Too much Osiris time and not enough Master Chief. It wasn't fun in Halo 2, and although it's essentially still a Spartan, I want to be Master Chief.

Story wasn't great. It was all filler. I enjoyed playing it, but the plot was rather thin and it kind of ended abruptly and perhaps a bit too vague.

Reusing the same guy for several boss fights was very repetitive and not particularly fun.

Otherwise, it's the same Halo, this time with even more visual pizzaz and for that, I can get over some of the short comings.
