I loved the ending...but I have to say, it seemed to end right when everything was getting good.

Honestly, I can't say I care for the covenant story or the story of the arbitor...the MC is what I was there for.

Single seems like a rather big letdown to me overall.

From what of the multi I've played (maybe 5 or so hours at this point?), it still retains Halo1 quality, in sheer fun value, if not more so. Lockout, Ivory Tower, and Burial Mounds are phenomenal maps. Coagulation and Beaver Creek are nice for nostalgia value.

Also, I felt a bit let down by the extra dvd in the collectors edition.

I think ultimately, I was a victim of hype. Halo2 is a good game and all, but after all the years, and previews, and e3s, I can't say it was as good as I expected.
