Played through the first two missions of the campaign this morning.
Graphics are decent. Not amazing but an obvious step up from the last two games but unfortunately the engine still doesn’t seem able to handle everything going on onscreen. For example, the first time we had to defend a base from an enemy drop ship the framerate dropped dramatically.
It was horrible. I’m thinking that maybe it won’t be so bad if I install the game on my HDD. We’ll see.
Enemies seem to be alot stronger this time around. Even on the Normal difficulty. It’s definately easier to flank enemies rather than going in like a Power Ranger
The music is fantastic like usual, as it has always been a strong point for the series.
Menus and multiplayer are alot more fleshed out and there is just an obscene amount of things to do for those hardcore Halo players.
You are definately getting your moneys worth with this one.
So first impressions are good.
I’m not sure how long it will keep my attention. I’ll definately finish the campaign a couple of times but I still believe that as far as online multiplayer goes there are still better games out there, games I’d rather be playing.
