Though it was very cheap of Bungie to make the last 3 levels, basically Assault on the Control Room, Pillar of Autumn and the space ship level backwards. I still really enjoyed the levels, but a few new one's would have been a lot better.
I don't care how much someone loves Halo, but every indoor area is comprised of about two different textures and three different room blocks cut and pasted to create the level, and if they deny that they are simply being a fanboy.

I'm finding Red Fection 2 is currently my surrogate game for PD. Putting the Bots on hard really brings it up to PD's 'respawn and die' gasp level!
60 multiplayer levels, customisable bots (that can use mines!), any mix of weapons you like and extremely tough to win. But not so hard that you can't progress to 2nd/1st in the space of 5/10 minutes.
Oh and it's fast but not TOO fast.

I prescribe 'outdoor Halo levels' only for you. :D
Mainly because every 20 minutes I would stop and think; I've gone round in a circle'.
Only even more worrying is that I hadn't, I'd been going forwards the whole time.

Haven't played the mutliplayer yet. Have you noticed though in the single player how many things they stole from Perfect Dark? things like you shoot an enemy and his friend will say stuff like "he was my cousin" and "I'm gonna miss him" still funny but taken straight from the Perfect Dark book of funnies.
