I played it for about 30 minutes. Then I got tired of the stupid FOV and the ugly textures and the framerate that insisted on dropping even though I kept dropping the graphics options. After awhile the game was jerking around like Kathryn Hepburn on bad acid.
So finally it looked like crap, played like crap and the only thing cool about it was the music in the menu (you know, the whole "ooohh aaaah" organ choir-thingy)

as opposed to a keyboard/mouse combo
Input devices aimed for entering text (the keyboard was first designed for the typewriter!) and for selecting large objects with a margin of error are somehow better than a controller that was half-designed with Halo in mind.
Oh, and people who buy consoles are innately less of a human beings.
You make a lot of sense.
Sounds like a good game

Too bad I won't buy it. Not really into giving any more money to Microsoft.

You guys bashing Halo with your know-it-all snobbery remind me of how a certain demographic on/. bashes the iPod everytime there's a story on an mp3 player, saying the iPod is overpriced and lacks key features.
You guys just don't get it. You're part of the 5% minority that obsess about stuff normal people just don't give a damn about, but you strut around on Slashdot like your champions of reason. Maybe you think it sucks for estoeric reason X. Or maybe more truthfully you think it sucks out of elitist snobbery. But maybe, just maybe, when everyone else loves something, and you think it sucks, it reflects just as much on you as on the thing.
