I never really was a fan of Halo games. The whole phenomenon of Halo just missed me somehow. The first thing that got me remotely interested in the game was Red vs Blue machinima - that's how I've come to know more about Halo universe. The second thing was PC version of Halo, which I played for a couple of hours and then deleted with slight feeling of relief - it was plain bad, at least from my point of view. Then I've learnt about Halo and teabagging...
Umm, back to the topic. Recently I've heard quite a lot of buzz about the incoming Halo 3 for Xbox 360, so when I saw the line, I didn't hesitate for long before joining the queue. It helped that Jessica Chobot was also waiting in the same line...

The time I have spent with the game has convinced me that playing FPP shooters on double analogue sticks is a torture. I can't really hit anyone moving and it actually becomes quite frustrating, knowing that if I had my trustworthy mouse with me, the other guy would be already dead (or not...). I got my ass handed to me on a silver plate.
As for the game itself, the graphics are pretty (although nothing particular caught my attention), there's a number of vehicles to use, which is fun, nice choice of weapons and overall impression is positive. Truth be told, I still don't understand why people get so excited about this series, but at least this time I don't have anything to hold against the game. Solid title, is how I would classify it.
