I watched as he played, hoping to learn from him the different techniques of killing the aliens and evading them

Basically, you have to shoot down the bad aliens

Some of the weapons, especially the simpler Covenant weapons (the aliens) are virtually useless

This game was actually somewhat difficult, the aliens were smarter unlike your some of sqaud mates, the environments looked/sounded great

but i like realism a lot and the idea of a whole clip to kill an alien doesn't float my boat

Killing evil space aliens instead of humans is much easier to deal with

The M rating didn't bother me as I had seen the other Halo games.

It's always focused between the two main characters and never breaking them as they did in Halo 2

It's as if Halo fanatics never took a glimpse at Counterstrike, Battlefield or dozens upon dozens of other PC FPS games that offer more gameplay options, refined gameplay, immersive graphics and A.I. that acts human

This doesn't work perfectly as you'd expect though as they are not able to read your mind and drive accordingly.

People of all skill levels play together, sometimes based on skill, sometime not (players choice), I made friends online and invited my personal friends to join as well,this game is an easy A+++!

this game is good for laughs with friends--but it is so unbalanced and unfair that even after you are a level 30, and still cant figure out how 3 clips from a brute shot dont kill a level 2 as he turns and shoots once for the win---this game is no break-thru, the maps are few, the gametypes are poor, and no skill is required--just luck of the draw.
