I think the game is overall a fantastic game. It has the story, the playing, and everything else that reaches 5 star standards, but there are flaws. One of which is that one of the characters is played in the dark which can get very repetitive and boring. Also it gets hard to see, unless you have a LED tv or a brightly lit tv. Apart from that, I was kind of disappointed that there weren't really any elites! Just brutes. Another thing is the multiplayer disc just has a few more maps then the Halo 3 game. But again, overall this game is definitely worth the money.
What's great about it: The story is great! The playing is awesome!
What's not so great: Almost half the game is in the dark, so you might want to play at night or in a dark room. Plus there's no elites!
