Disappointed, The trailer was better than the game

With all of the hype, and the great trailers made for this game...I was expecting it to be one heck of a game; however, after starting the campaign--I wasn't too pleased. It is too much of a look for things kind of game, as opposed to just having the standard fight all the bad guys kind of game like Halo 2 and 3 was. the only thing I liked about it was the fireflight. That alone is worth the purchase--and if your hoping for better maps...think again. If you have purchased all of the maps on Halo 3, then no need to purchase this Halo ODST multiplayer disc. And it only has 3 new levels. I wish that one day they will come out with all halo maps, including those from the first 2 as well.
What's great about it: The new firefight Campaign
What's not so great: The gameplay was too different than normal Halo 3 combat
