I said Energy Sword, but the BR is just barely behind it. The pistol was great in Halo 1 and the BR looks like even more fun with the two modes of fire.

the battle rifle wil be better than the energy sword. i knwo this for a fact. because the battle rifle actually has long range unlike the energy sword.it might not be as strong, but it wil be easy to take someone out that has a sword; run far away then shoot

Well considering I havent used any of the new guns, I dont have a fav.
Out of things I have seen though, the Battle Rifle kicks ass.

For the time beining the Battle Rifle looks the best of the bunch... But if Covenant Energy Shields (Jackels Shields) are usable... SMG's will look mighty fine...

If I recall correctly, only the plasma pistol and high explosive rounds (Fuel Rod Cannon/Gun and wraith shots, plasma nades) could destroy the shield on Legendary... All ther weapons more or less kill them person faster then the shields by going threw the "holes" in the shield...

Plus, a lot of weapons get deflected off of the shield... Probably the most important is the sniper rifle rounds...

The shield would be cool in multiplayer tho.
My fav. is the SMG,because there a one handed weapon.
