As everyone will know, there are various control layouts for Halo games, ranging from things like Southpaw to Bumper jumper. However, none of them are exactly what I want in terms of which button does what.

So, I propose that we are allowed to customize the controls fully. I mean, wouldn't you rather aim with the Left Trigger? Throw grenades with one of the bumpers? Reload with X? I know I would. It would allow players to fit their Halo experience around their playing styles. For example, if someone was a keen jumper, who also likes melee, they could change the two bumpers to jump and melee. It's totally up to the player as to what they set it up as.

Of course, I'd also love to melee with Y, shoot with down on the D-pad, and jump with the Back button. But hey, that's just me.

Lol, that would be cool, although i am already used to Bumper Jumper.

Sounds good. It might be hard to get used to custom control schemes, but it'd definitely be useful.

I don't understand why every video game doesn't do that. It's easy: give you 4 or 5 preset control schemes and then have a fully customizable option.
