The first day I had Halo, way back in November of 2001, I realized that the melee attack was going to be very useful, and probably a big part of my game. As it turns out, I was correct. The ability to throw a slap in close range combat, while circle-strafing, is a big lifesaver for me. So I switched to boxer controls the very first day I had Halo, and I find it to be the best.
The only downside to this is the fact that firing the secondary weapons on the tank is impossible to do while driving the tank, but the tank is useless anyway, so who cares, right?
I do foresee this being a problem in Halo 2 with the dual wielding, but I hope Bungie will think of us and lock the second weapons' fire to the left trigger.
