Why did bungie take out all of the skill that was previously involved in the first Halo? Totally ruined the game. I had much higher expectations for this game, and they were definitely not met.

I agree totally. The primary failure was the removal of the pistol (THE WAY IT WAS) That is the weapon that required a lot of skill and set apart the men from the boys. Now it's just a shoot em up festival that my little sister could excel at. I had much higher expectations as well. The game is still amazing (graphics, gameplay, etc) but without the skill it is just another game. Also, what is up with the online engine. You can't even pick the type of game you want to join. And when you create a custom game you have to invite people, others cannot just simply search on what they want to play and join your game. Gamespy with Halo was better than this. Overall, I'm not impressed.

CHANGE is easy to understand, however change is not always for the better. You know we're right, stop convincing yourself that this game met the expectations that you had....IT DIDN'T.

The pistol didn't require any skill. 3 shot kill? Come on, seriously. The new battle rifle takes a hell of a lot more skill than the old pistol.
