/me hates FPS games and thinks that Halo was incredibly boring.  I guess that makes me an anomaly. :p

Well, I can either read or play, and right now I prefer playing...

Regarding the 'game from the Covenant perspective', the reviews didn't like it much but I think it's very sweet. I suppose the Covenant talking English is necessary for it, but they should've at least kept their original death screams. Such is my only criticism of the game so far :p

Nope, it makes you a target.

Next to the Chief himself, the Arbiter is my favorite character.

I absolutely love the energy sword. Given the choice of a gun or the sword, I'll usually take the sword (except if I need to kill hunters or vehicles). Its particularly useful against the Flood, as it completely destroys them, preventing the little bastards from reviving the bodies.
Even after the energy runs out, you can just beat the **** out of enemies with the hilt.

 
Is it just me, or have the Flood recieved a MAJOR improvement in regards to toughness? I can't seem to effectively kill them with anything short of a Plasma Sword or Shotgun (every other non-explosive weapon may as well be a BB gun for all it stops them).

The sword, and dual magnums kick so much ass.  I just got out of a multi game where me and one other person took on two teams of 4, we played about 7 games.... and we won 4 of them, :D

Yep, in addition to that, the infection Flood can revive corpses, and some of the Covenant Flood have shields.

 
I noticed >_<. The vehicle-driving Flood are starting to piss me off. Never realized how truly effective Warthogs were against...well, myself.

God, don't remind me. They're even harder when they go melee, and I don't mean when they whack you with their gun, I mean when they roar, drop their gun and charge you like a pissed off horny ape.

Yep. That's when a brute shot melee to the face comes in real handy. ;)  Or the sword... that thing kicks so much ass it isn't funny.

Yeah, that Brute shot is more viscious as a melee weapon, which is what I use it as when I cant find a sword. Rips through Jackals just as easily as the sword does.
