I was playing on Live last night at half six, 200,000 people were in the multiplayer lobbies in Halo 3 (not counting those playing singleplayer). When my mate from work came on later, 300,000 were playing. When I finally stopped at 10 oclock, over 400,000 people were playing Halo 3.
So, when are you, Pia, Ronin and vibs gonna make it 400,004?

At the very moment I can pull £35+delivery together to buy the game from Amazon (or where ever is cheapest and still reliable for delivery).
I accrue £10 / month for games and I think I can convince myself I've accrued £10 from September... might be a little bit yet but I'm working on it.
(This is all so I don't explode my finely balanced budget with buying ten games at once... otherwise that ends up being all too likely
)

Got to finish SP first Tetsuo .
Managed to get in 5 hours before fatigue set in yesterday (I'm not as young as I used to be!).
But bloody MEH!
I love Elites, and they look very cool in the Halo 3, I wants to fight them, they're what I like shooting at! Not crudy Brutes, who are boring, and the Brute Shot will always suck when compared to fighting against the Plasma Gun. Getting killed by grenade launchers is not fun .
Anyone else finding it hard to see things, especially in the first few levels? I'm playing on a 32" at 720p (1080i is for phools I tell you!!), and bah! Since I've started wearing my glasses I can sees all the jaggies.
... and the Ark isn't as cool looking as a Halo...
... and Cortana/Gravemind flash-ups are annoying...
... and *grumble grumble*...

I've hardly played much of the singleplayer at the moment, just got used to the controls on it and then cut and run to the multi, but I didn't find it that bad. Like I said, I hardly have any experience of the Halo games so I found it nice and refreshing, a lot more so than most FPSs. I like the way the levels are set out in such a way so that it feels like you're at fault for dieing because you were careless (like, you kill a few baddies, spot a sniper and kill him and then get cocky and run out only to be popped by another sniper) so I'm liking it. I also like killing the brutes their grenade launchers only cause real problems if you aren't careful, most of the time a measured couple of snipes to weaken them and then a rush with SMGs is good enough to take them down, but they have a nasty habit of running behind obstacles and then second-guessing you when you try to oust them. I like it! This is only the jungle level as well, I can't wait for the bigger, open-plan vehicle maps (the big ice level with the tank in Halo 2 springs to mind).
Also don't see your problems with the graphix, they look pretty nice on my telly. A little rough round the edges, but it never caused me any probs at all and I'm happy sacrificing a little for nice, smooth gameplay.
More to the point, what are you doing faffing around on singleplayer? If you'd come on and plough through it on co-op you'd probably enjoy it a helluva lot more (I've been saving myself the co-op until you come on, anyhow)!

BLEH!
So, just finished the single player on Heroic... that's 8 hours... stupid short game, if I didn't love Halo so much I'd hate it. In fact! I love Halo a little less now that it's all over.
Anyways, after it's finished and the exposition is over, I don't feel smug or like I've achieved something. Not too happy at all. But that's just me, everyone else seems to love it, probably a lot better in co-op .
On a positive note, the Ark got a lot cooler when you find out what it does.
Still, bloody meh!
Never should have made the Elites goodies.
*sob*
Anyways, at least now I can give Tetsuo the love he so richly deserves
…
…and the music is rubbish, it’s too quiet, and… erm… less awesome than before?
…
*more sob*
