So I got it at midnight. I was first in line somehow. I only showed up at 11 so I guess I just got lucky. I figured I'd have to buy the Halo 3 flavored mountain dew to fuel my long night of gaming. Its 5 45 and this is my first break since I've gotten home.
The theater. Holy shit. You know how you can do the really awesome instant replays in madden and ncaa where you stop time and move around all matrixy? Well imagine doing that for the entire game, in real time or any speed you prefer. Plus you can upload your movie and share it online.
Forge. Should be sweet. Customizing the level on the fly in the middle of the game will make for some crazy games of halo. I haven't played it enough to really get it though.
Matchmaking. Like the old halo but with some more options. Still kicks ass.
Campaign. Amazing. Cut scenes might as well be made into a movie. I'm on level 5 of 9 on Heroic right now so its not really all that difficult but its still a pretty good challenge. I love the new powerups you can get. They're gonna make things way more interesting.
I don't like how the game isn't in fucking widescreen in coop. Wtf. Why are their pillarboxes? At least its good in single player.
I'm not sleeping tonight. I'll pay for it tomorrow but who cares. This game is awesome.
