I don't actually have it yet because that would mean getting the pirated version which i simply WILL NOT do. But I mean on the 9th, when you go and buy the game, (if you preordred like me, good luck if u didn't!) youll sit down in you chair or couch, slip in th disk, and listen to the familiar sound of monks as u look at the opening menu. But then what? I can't decide what to do first. Play Live, the Campaign, Co-op, or just open a split screen game alone just to play with all the new vehicles and weapons? What do you guys think?

I reckon you gotta play live first, its the bit im most looking forward to, although its totally new and different the campaign and co-op modes are gonna have parrallels with halo 1, live will be something totally different.

I'm gonna play the campaign first. That's my favorite part of Halo, by far.

Im definately going to play Campaign first. I wont play Live until im done, because i dont want the story spoiled for me. And because im dying to know whats going to happen.

Campaign. Practice for Xbox live is what it is for me, cuz I want to be adapted already to how the weapons handle now (like the sniper rifle having recoil and the new dual wield system) I don't want to be like the guy on the Zanzibar video that is obviously fumbling around with the controls.

I'm scared that even if I get the game at 12:01am, pop it in as soon as I get home and play on Live, there's still going to be *someone* in a different time zone on the other side of the world who already beat the game and will talk about how cool everything was and why throughout my game and ruin everything. I'm playing through the campaign as soon as possible. However I'm not sure if I want to play on the easiest difficulty first just to get through it quicker, or if I want to do it right the first time...

definitely Campaign. not only because i would like to know the storyline, but you also get a heads up on the weapons, vehicles and enemies as well as enjoying the campaigns (as far as im concerned, that's getting 4 birds with 1 stone).

AMerica is going to get Halo 2 a couple of days before any other country on Earth I heard. So, when you go on XBox live, there will only be the people in AMerica playing it and the second it comes out, I have a good feeling that not too many people are going to be done with the game, but, yes, I also am going to do campaigne.

OH, sorry
Nevermind, I just realized that what I said doesn't go along with what you were talking about. There are other people in America in different times. Sorry.

maybe you should let your brother in your room for a little while to beat him in split screen to get the feel of weapons under fire. just a suggestion!
