Has anyone noticed how this game is being tilted towards Halo: Combat Evolved? The old health system is being brought back. The pistol is also being brought back from CE. As far as I understand, the main automatic gun will be the SMG which is about as weak and unaccurate as the CE assault rifle. I think Bungie is trying to make a game more similar to CE than Halo 3 because Halo 3 got so much hate from Halo fans. Thoughts?

Umm....what hate? Halo 3 was critically acclaimed. A lot of people loved it.... except those hardcore CoD4 fans, lol.

Maybe they're moving that way because Halo Reach is set right before/during Combat Evolved.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

This is wrong for 2 reasons: 1) It's spelled "inaccurate" not "unaccurate."
2) The new SMG isn't inaccurate at all. If you've watched any of the gameplay, you know it has a scope to it. Also, in one of the interviews (I think it was the one from G4 but I can't remember), Joe Staten specifically says that it's very accurate.
