I haven’t had a chance to finish the campaign yet but the multiplayer continues to be flat-out awesome. Whether it’s a 16 man big team battle complete with ground and air vehicles or an every-man-for-himself deathmatch the game is polished to an incredible level. The machinima capabilities are amazing as well. The highly-polished ability to watch every match from any angle, follow any player around, etc is unprecedented in console gaming. I will be playing Halo 3 a few hours a week for a long time to come no doubt. [...] […] Halo 3 I wrote about my first impressions a few weeks ago here.

And people said I wouldn't be able to find a copy! Bwahahaha. My only complaint about Halo 3 so far is just how often I have no idea where to go. Nothing like 4 players in co-op overwhelmed with enemies all not being sure where to run. I haven't even tried a lot of the extra features yet, but the 4 player co-op is awesome, and as you said, Halo 3's UI is fantastic, GoW would have been a better game for ripping off Halo 2's. I noticed the lag bursts in co-op too (well, its hard not to). Chances are someone was downloading something on a computer on their network if it is extended lag.

Unfortunately, I now have to stare at it for the next two weeks as my console gets the red ring of death knocked out of it by Microsoft. I picked up my copy today.

I'm sitting here extremely tired at work from playing Halo 3 into the morning hours. I tried out 4 player co-op, which was fun except sometimes we'd get major lag issues. I also fired up team slayer with a friend and sucked at that, sadly, but it was still a lot of fun. Halo 3 is absolutely awesome.
