"now that they have had fun with the game, lets piss them of"


I enjoyed every leve except for that one, why? It made no sense, it is super hard on legendary by yoruself, i guess they were just having an off moment. The level was repitive, just liek teh textures in the game.

[color=white]It was a tribute to classic FPSs like Doom and Castle Wolfenstein. Check out the Bungie History part of this site for details.[/color]

They were rushed to get the game out in time so some of the levels are a little repetitive...

[color=white]Go to the bookstore nearest you, find a copy of this book, read some of the developers' notes on The Library--no, better yet, read ALL the developers' notes throughout the book.

The Library is quite a repititive level but is (along with Keyes) the one level where you can't hang back for a while to take a breather. In The Library and Keyes, you can stand in a place and Flood will continue to come at you. They are OK levels but I don't like playing them through that much (Library hardly, Keyes sometimes).

I think that Bungie was thinking "The Master Chief needs to get the Index, it can't be a walk in the park to get the key to a superweapon, so lets make it the only route right at the very top"
