With pretty much all of owning this game I was wondering how everyone is doing and how many different skill levels you've conquered. :-)
I've beaten it on all difficulties now and I'm quite proud to see al those skill level medals under each level. ;-)
Has to be said, its been awhile since I felt so proud of an achievement in a game. :-) But even though I've done this, I STILL go back and play it. Obviously the story never changes but the way it plays always feels different thanks to the excellent AI in the game. In some ways I wonder if Halo has spoiled me in a way because now I'm very critical about a games AI.
Like in Rogue Leader on the GC. I play that and I get annoyed when the wingmen don't seem to do sod all. But not just in that game, with any game from now on I tend to be very unforgiving when it comes to the AI of a title. ;-)) God help the FPS games I play from now on. ;-))

Yeah I have that same problem - can get annoying when your in the middle of a heated battle like Endor.
The GC controller is nice to hold, but for me theres a few little things like that that just don't feel right. Putting the two consoles controllers in comparison, I find the Ninty one is more comfatable to hold while the X-Box one is more practical in the amount of buttons it has, where they are and the distance between the analogues.
I'm guessing most people that don't like the X-Box controller have only played it on a pod. If possible, its well worth trying to play on the X-Box when its not in a pod as it feels very different holding the controller. When you play on a pod, its hard to hold the controller properly because of the way its attached.
Will be interesting to see Microsoft's smaller controller when it comes out too.

The wingmen in Rl are pretty good - My only minor criticism is the D-pad - you sometimes don't get the order you want through, but that is a minor problem, as 98% of the time it works fine.

Oh well, at least its a mistake you won't make again. Never nice to learn the hard way though. Shows how many gits there are around. :-(
Sorry to hear about that situation mate.

well you can report him...and get compensation but they take like £15 pounds compensation money and spend ages investigating.
I was trying to be cunning when i decided to trade rallisport challenge...at the time it cost about 30 quid to buy rallisport challenge off an auction...there was this guy who wanted to swap rc for halo and i thought i can then get another copy for 20 quid which will work out cheaper....ahh how i was wrong!

Yeah I have a bunch of games I want to get over the next couple of months. Champ Manager, maybe Fifa world cup, Crash, maybe Buffy, Gun Metal, etc.
Theres some great Star Wars titles on the way too. ;-)

Yeah in the summer after my exams i'll be playing it alot more. By then i'll hopefully have the 2 free games from MS and Spider-man and Final Fantasy 10. Doubt i'll play on Halo much unless I have a link up with my mate.
