Beating the game on Legendary takes several things:

Patience
Strategy
More Patience

What most people realize at some point is that the run in and gun everything down approach does not work past Heroic (nor for many parts of Heroic). There are more enemies, they are smarter and not so intimidated by your shiny armor. All in all, it is very satisfying to complete on Legendary, but by no means even close to impossible.

yup.

its actually much easier than halo 2, but a little harder than halo 3, and similar to ODST.

I haven't beaten it on legendary yet, but I recommend using the needler, because plenty of ammo is always around, it has a lock-on feature so there is an excellent chance you will hit the enemy (jackals are a problem because of their shields, I recommend a quick melee then get back to cover), good clip size (including the spare clips of ammo, other than the clip currently being used), and my favorite, the big pink explosion after 1 second of the needles being in the enemy.

I have done so many times. I would say it's harder than Halo: 2, 3 and ODST(loner again) only because you are by yourself practically throughout the entire game just as you were in ODST. Also how else was I going to see a Sangheili warrior hug Johnson?

Not harder, per se. Just more challenging. Halo 2 was hard. Halo 3 was at both polar opposites in terms of easy and hard. ODST was just a brief pain.

BYAHH

Yes, it was really challenging. The library took me forever...

風 Swift as the wind
林 Quiet as the forest
火 Conquer like the fire
山 Steady as the mountain

Yes, it was challenging but not impossible, patience and a degree of cunning make it not as difficult.

Yah it just took time is what I was getting at. I defiantly agree with ODST being a pain especially after playing John with your health regeneration and shields. Then again it just took me sometime to remember to heal and gear up before going into combat again.

All my opinion.

Solo. It's the hardest game yet.

Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.

I've beaten it Co-op on Xbox and solo on PC. As someone else said the library is really difficult.
