Is it worth buying? It looks really cool and useful and I mostly intend to use it for halo 2 and halo so does anyone recommend it?

Normally you would have to take you thumb off the sticks to reload, get in a Warthog, melee, etc. Not any more. It is a controller with buttons on the handles. So you don't have to take your thumbs off the right and left thumbsticks, and it give the fingers on your hands(that are normally stationary) a work out.

Go here

i picked one up before, but it felt like it was WAY to easy to press the other buttons. I would be switching weapons and reloading on accident all the time.

it is like that when you first pick it up but when you play with it for about a hour it feels like second nature.

that is a little mini menue that lets you customise the button placemeny like if you want the x and y butons over eachother then you go into the menu and change the placement it also can invert either thumbsticks.

No, Halo dosen't support light guns, and if it did how would you move, throw grenades, etc?

the FPS master controller is kewl, and it just takes alil time to get used to...

Now, only if it was built better *sigh* =( the A-button Sticks like a mofo(on every FPS Mst controller I've tried in stores)

Edit: and if it wasn't clear, I do own one.. but its kinda collecting dust once I noticed the not-good-enough craftmanship.
