Legendary for me. But I'll admit I can be a total spazeroid sometimes, when i want to get through SP. (i.e., replaying marathon on Kingergarten O:-) )

What are your thoughts on difficiulty levels and which you choose whenever you get a new game?

Easy for me cuz i need something to leave to earn up too and cuz i'm not too good and i like to learn the story and not just try to camit suicide.

I usually start on the lowest lvl unless it's like Madden i start on the highest

LEGENDARY!!!!!! There's only one way to play Halo . . . balls out and guns blazing! Why leave yourself something to play up to? If you play on a lower level, you can anticipate the level on Legendary and know what to do and when to do it. Why not go all out and push yourself to the limits. Master Cheif wouldn't take it easy. So, ask yourselves this, WWMCD!? (If you don't get it. . .I'm sorry)

I'm going to start on normal so I can enjoy both the game and the storyline. Then I'll move up. To me it's just kinda dumb to start on Legendary. You lose fun that way.

There are two groups of people in the world - those that hope, and those that wish. The first group hopes that nothing bad will happen. The second group wishes that they are there when it does. Which one are you?

I agree, I expect to start out on Normal and just enjoy the game.

Normal for me.

I mean, there is a reason that normal is the "normal" difficulty right?

Normal. There will be plenty of challenge on live, and system link with my friends.
Plus you dont want to spend all the first day playing on Legendary when live is there for you.

well, i'd run into the game with HEROIC becuase playing halo since it 1st came out has made me understand a few things. Plus the lowest setting is for new ppl to the game and the highest is murder if your not used to the leavels ...yet.

I would play it the same way I did with Halo, Normal, Heroic, Ledgendary. That way I have all those neat symbols under the level name, and I know the level layout. None of us would be as good as Halo if we never knew the level layout from playing it on easy or normal.

i agree with you, normal is the best way to start. Then if i can kick covie ass easy i'll move to legendary.

Heroic for me. If I beat Halo 2 in a day I would be so pissed.

Heroic. i don't want to play on normal and just breeze through the game, but i also don't want to play ledgendary and get ticked off. so heroic is just right.

For me, story is as imprtant as gameplay the first time around. Later it's all challenge! But at first I want to see what happens. Curiosity killed the cat, or, the cat crazy enough to choose legendary.

legendary and coop its easy to play lengendary with a friend or maybe heroic since they say the AI is better so that might make it harder and we would have to get used to it but i will start legendary coop
