I'm really enjoying it too The flashbacks are just classic Halo really, no bad thing, but roaming the city on your own at night is a different kettle of fish. I came across 2 hunters earlier and you just dont have the resource on your own to take them down. It's not quite a stealth game but as the rookie I do tend to play at a slower pace, and it can be quite tense. Found a few of the audio logs as well, which sound like they'll reveal an interesting little sub plot.
Also fired up the multiplayer, had a peek at the new maps. Should be able to bump that GS up as well. Good stuff Looking forward to some co-op!

They've done another blinder with the soundtrack, really love it. Hope VGL build some of it into their Halo set

From what I played in Firefight last night it's absolutely superb. Controls feel really tight, graphics have a bit more polish, everything feels so improved. Love the new health system.
Superb. |

Going to finish the solo campaign before I dive into Firefight and I don't think I've too much more to do (I finished Kikowani Station earlier). What's it like Nokkon? I hear the fights can be quite long though.
I'm playing through on Heroic and it's about right. There have been a few semi-tough bits but nothing on the scale of COD on veteran etc. I am looking forward to getting into a Legendary run through if there are others willing to do a complete run through one night? (late friday night maybe, few beers?). I have hit one achievement glitch (I should have got Super Sleuth as I started Kikowani Station but didn't) and now I've looked at them all I'll probably run through on easy after I finish to see if I can get it and others I wasn't aware of like Good Samaritan, which I've now blown a chance of getting). |

The fights are quite long, it took 2 hours to pass the par score on one of the stages last night with my friend and there were a few close calls, it was pretty intense but so much fun. I love the fact that random skulls activate to change it up all the time.

So who is up for the ODST 'Legendary' run?
I know Daz and myself have mentioned it several times in the past so I know we're both interested and Steven has just shown an interest, so who is the 4th? (although I'm sure it won't just be limited to one run through from us, I'll be up for a few I'm sure).
I assume Chris will want to do it, but I'm note sure. I could definitely get my friend to fill the spot also. |

Definitely in Friday is good for me, have the house to myself that night.
I actually just got Good Samaritan without realising. Reading the achievement description I was looking for guys in hard hats
