Halo 2's story is crazy, the characters are awesome and playing as Master Chief never felt so good.

Well, don't get too used to playing as the Master Chief.
Spoiler:
My gripe about the story is that I *don't* get to play as the master chief all the time. Plus playing as the Arbiter is exactly the same as playing as the master chief. No extra powers, no new guns, nothing. In fact in most of the Arbiter levels I end up using the earth weapons. I'm mostly playing through the levels so I can say I finished it. In Halo one I finished it because I wanted to know what would happen next. Big difference.
I've only played in the rumble pit online. Matchmaking takes too long. But it's pretty smooth once you get into a game. I was expecting it to be faster paced too, guess I'm used to Quake1/2/3 and counterstrike. I think that the perfect scores could be based more on the online play rather than the overall game. I think they are treating the single player game like Trent Dilfer on the Baltimore Ravens super bowl team. As long as it didn't screw up, the multiplayer wins the game.
