Spoilers abound: I don't know how to put spoiler tags so I made the font white. Select the text to see it. Someone let me know the spoiler tag so I can add it in.

[spoilers]1 - Starting off, I am flat out amazed.
2 - Storyline is weak in the start but its nice to see the Arbiter become the co-op partner
3 - Things get interesting but I am pissed that the character voices are so damn low. I can never hear a damn thing they say.
4 - Someone returns to spoil my day in the game. Time to face the reaper!
5 - Man Halo 3 is all about Cortana and Gravemind. Can they stop yelling at me?
6 - The vehicles are amazing. Brute Chopper is great but the Prowler is the most successful in taking down the enemies. Hornet is fun to drive. Where they hell is the Elephant? Not a single on in campaign. Scarab fighting is probably one of the best battles in the game outside of brutes with their dumb jet packs.
7 - Took at break for multiplayer and played Narrows, the green level that reminds me of Lockout, Flats (I think it is called, kind of like Turf meets Elongation?), a few beta levels, and others. Started off great with my friends that are over with 4-0 or something. But then we meet up with these vets from the UK that are level 8-9 and they whoop on us so we decide to head back to campaign.
8 - Man, Cortana is the main plot point of the game. Kind of ridiculous.
9 - Can't fight Prophet of Truth and can't fight Gravemind -- what the hell? I want to kick their ass.
10 - After five hours, the game is complete. The ending is just like Halo 1. Get ready for a warthog run for your life.
11 - The ending cinematic sucks. Stay after the cinematic if you want to see Master Chief but otherwise, the ending doesn't cover anything that happened to the Chief. It ends with The Arbiter being a whining whore at a grave site. I thought this game was about the Master Chief yet The Arbiter is all over this game and so is Cortana.
12 - Lastly, I'll end off with the only boss battle in the game -- Monitor... you piece of shit. Killing Sgt. Johnson is horrible! Also, Captain Keyes' death was miserable since she barges unprepared and gets her ass kicked.
....
I have yet to use Forge mode and now I am devoting the rest of the night to playing that and multiplayer. Also going to test out save film feature and what not. My full review will be up tomorrow afternoon. Any questions? feel free to ask.
