What was your favorite thing from Halo 1 that either disapeared or wasn't continued?

I liked the pistols ( to me it was way over powered) :P

i miss the assult rifle. the real one that had a 60 round mag. i handled its ommision from halo 2, but the one in halo 3 is a bit of a letdown. no more running and gunning through the whole campaign.

Oh, you can run, but you have to spend more time reloading than gunning. That's the main letdown for me.

One of the best things about CE is the jump just before bashing my right MC fist into a grunts head! The best place to do it in 2 is during Regret at the boss battle at the end, grunt spawning galore and alot of fists!

That's because it's practical. :)

I liked the classic Covenant dropships ( I think they're called Spirits now,) and the old plasma turrets. I just never liked the design of the new phantom ships, and the old plasma turrets actually looked intimidating, unlike the ones in later games. Packed more punch too.

I miss the Flood and how they used to be. They were actually a bit frightening to fight as they might sneak up on you and it would actually take a while to take them down and so you'd spazz out hoping for that freak to go down before it swiped at you blindly firing your AR.

Unlike in Halo 2 or 3 when they became ridiculously easy to kill. I mean they rush you. BAM! Melee DONE. Move on to next room please. Definately made them boring.

The Flood aren't boring anymore; they're just, like you said, ridiculously easy to kill(except with shields), and incredibly annoying. The fun leaked between once the Flood spores were able to be shot while inside the actual Flood, and the shotgun became the Slotgun.

Eh, I just liked the thrill of fighting neigh unstoppable super-sentient zombie thingys. Otherwise meh. At least in Halo 2 you needed a bladed weapon for an easy melee kill or a precise weapon to destroy the infection form. In halo 3 you can melee with anything, shoot them with a short SMG round, aim at the pod, or fire a few few few rounds at them anywhere. Hell even the marines can take down flood easy now.

Shotgun was definately weird. Halo 1 they shot incredible distance. Halo 2 it was short and random, and Halo 3 it goes back to being long range and random.

Plasmalab, a great map for Neutral CTF or Slayer. Download it and have fun. Version 1.1 now available.

The whole game rocked. But my fav memory is the invincible hog that didn't blow up in Campaign, unlike the Halo 2 & 3 ones which do.
And yeah, the Spirits were so damn awesome. Phantoms just suck, plus they sounded better in H2 and then in H3.
