Are you going to do your first run with co-op or single player?

<-- One of the best partner you can find in Co-OP.

When CPU controlled Convents and Floods see me, they piss in their pants. I'm intending on doing the same thing as well when I face those effin apes this time around.

No idea yet. Probably gonna want to do a lot of both actually. I like playing team games the most. I wasn't bad at playing single, I just liked the team aspect, chatting with friends and all. Those were the fun times.

Can't wait till we start the AcuraZine clan for Halo 3.

I hope they do. My friends couldn't always come over so playing co-op over the internet would be awesome.

you guys are behind on your details....

HALO 3 DOES have on-line co-op...not just 2 player...but 4 PLAYER!!!! should be incredible...first game to make that happen. Bungie developers said this was a very hard feature to implement

The place I pre-ordered mine was the same place I purchased Halo 2. When they released Halo 2, they had a midnight release and one of the LA Radio stations was there (don't remember which now). I got the game, went home and started playing.

I'm sure this one will be the same. I need to call them to find out.

Just got my disc. For reals. Slightly afraid of banhammer (this notwithstanding).

Will let you know how it goes! Too bad I don't have any time to really get into it now, but I am going to steal away from work to play at least the first level now.

Finished the first 3 levels. The brute chopper is by far the most fun new thing. Only weapon I've gotten so far that wasn't in the beta is the gravity hammer. I think there's a lot more ahead tho.

Holy crap... Covenant Scarab! I'm at the flood now. It seems shorter than H2. Still don't have much time to play, but enjoying it immensely. Too bad they're blocking matchmaking until release day.

I'll try not to do any spoilers. I never liked them myself. And seeing as everyone on the planet who cares about games is going to play this one, you'll all find out.

I got Halo3 this afternoon from a store in Manhattan that broke the do not sell date. Overall, I'm loving the game. It feels very much like the original Halo but with just more of everything - enemies, weapons, equipment, etc...

I haven't been able to play MP yet because the matchmaking isn't up until Monday, but overall it's a great game.

Man, its Sunday and no Xbox360 yet. Weds, they said they shipped it. I hope I get it by Monday or Tuesday when I get home from work. I am not sure I will do the whole midnight thing, I might have to go on luch Tuesday or after work. They better not give out my fully paid Legendary copy!!!

In my local gamestop, they have a Subway next to it and Hooters right in front. They say Subway will be open all night for the munchies and the Hooter girls will be there too.

So for those that have it, does it live up to the hype or is it just Halo 2.5?

I heard it records all of your game play so you can review it later / watch replays. Does this happen in the campaign as well as multiplayer?
