Saw some videos of this a while back, and despite the hype of the supposed "Halo-beater" - that wasn't even finished, let alone out! - it looked a bit ass. But some more recent videos show that they've sorted out choppy framerates, and now it's looking excellent. Might have to keep an eye on this one...

I take it you mean on the PC multi?

Doing that in system link/offline would result in my team mate getting a dead arm. :D

What was annoying in multiplayer were the number of times some idiot shot you , despite being on the same team, just bwcause you got the gunner position first.

The vehicles were great. Especially in co-op.

Although I'll agree they were annoying to drive at first. I'd actually say the vehicles were some of the best parts of the game, it really was the first 1st person shooter to integrate vehicles into the game well.

They took a bit of getting used to, but once you did they really worked a treat.

Never said they did, that was the guy down below. The control scheme was very awkward and could have been implemented much better, that much is obvious. My point is just that they are definitely NOT the best parts of Halo.

The Halo driving sections were fantastic, the controls were completely spot on, worked a treat.

They were space vehicles, they aren't meant to handle like racing cars.

No it's awful. Hardware would be a better example of how it should've been done. If Halo had stuck to being an FPS it would have been better overall.

It was worse with the scorpion. You want to go in one direction and shoot in another, but the minute you look at the target you start heading off course. Vehicle handling just plain SUCKS.

I found it most fun. Swerving round rocks, controlling the speed before a jump so it doesn't tip over....
