it's been a hectic week, and i made the mistake (well, sorta.... maybe) of fire'n up Halo2 late lastnight and quickly found myself playing it into the wee hours of the morning.... course, now i'm sorta hurting since i'm about to jet to go back up to PA for another day of fucking around in the basement armed with hammer, nails, and slabs of wood.... *sigh*just a couple quick thoughts.... is it just me, or do some of the Elites sound like Arnold Schwarzenegger? 
also have to say that playing solo is alot harder than playing co-op with a buddy... seem to blaze right through some sections with relative ease, whereas i remember fighting my ass off when i went through the same level on my own... yeah, i know, it makes sense, but still.... just an observation... another thing that kinda gets me is the dual-storyline going on, and though at first i thought it was really kewl to be fighting as a Covenant warrior dewd, it quickly started to get a little annoying since it's harder to distinguish who the "bad guys" are.... i keep pop'n one of my own guys by accident, which is kinda funny.... but not when yer in the thick of battle and have what feels like a hundred things going on simutaneously... *blink*
i also rode around in a blue Covenant tank around this one section (in the level going to the Library on Halo) for what felt like a fucking hour... think i got turned around or confused, and couldnt figure out where the hell i was supposed to go... hate it when that happens! oh, speaking of the covenant tanks... did ya know that you can now jump on one, melee the top hatch till it busts open, and then toss a grenade into it — single handedly? wow... that was alot of fun 
i also hear that there's different endings based on what level of difficulty you play the campaign under.... niiiiiiiiiiice.
okay, i better jet.... foooooooooooooooosh!
