It all depends on what games are being developed for it - so far they have released minimal information in that regard.

No game discs. So, you download 50 games for this thing and then the hard-drive has a head-crash. Sounds great to me!!!

Actually I believe that their system logs whatever you buy just in case of hd or system failures. So...If you lose all your games you can just log in and download them all again.

That's better than nothing, I suppose. Still, I feel much better knowing that my games are tangible and only one insertion away.

HELL YES IT WILL SUCK! UGH!! First off, its pretty damn expensive ($200 for the system, then $30 a month for games), and secondly, the system isn't even that strong. I heard it has a Geforce FX 5700 Ultra video card, which isn't a very good card.

Two reasons:

1) I like to know EVERY little detail about the Halo books, so I read each one multiple times.
2) Other than that, I really don't know. I just kept picking it up and reading it.

i understand the fall of reach and first strike but i mean the flood? it had a couple of good battles that werent in the game and a couple of funny parts with zammeme the elite character but other than that.... i would rather just read first strike over and over.
GREAT BOOK!

I like it the least out of the 3 books, but it's still an amazing book.
