Seriously, you can't even compare this to how Mario is thrown all over the place. When Recon comes out, that will be the 5th game in the Halo universe over the course of 8 years. Checking Wikipedia, it looks like there are about 8 games PER YEAR with Mario in them. It is not even remotely close to comparable.
Why do people have to be so stupid?

This game looks a whooooole lot darker than the Halo series.

Hmm I can tell you this game will be epic.
The reason why I say this is because throughout the campaign of Halo 1 - 3, the battles were on a small to medium scale where you would face anywhere between 5 - 20 enemies. Now with this, I think they'll take it bigger kinda like Gears of War 2 is going.
Bigger battles, more epic and its on a grander scale. Plus, how cool would it be to hear over the radio "Master chief is blah blah blah blah".
I'm hoping for better graphics though.

So does that mean we're back to fighting elites rather than brutes?

I bet this is going to be a tactical / surviver style game, contrasting from Halos normal tactics of run and gun. I'm excited.

Notice 2 things:
1. Silencer on gun (not sure what it is).
2. The Superintendent will be guiding you through (the signs at the end/keep right) in some way.
Looks really cool.

So you play as the Recon soldier.. and the Superintendent is pretty much like Cortana for him.

Color me underwhelmed. Unless of course, this adds an entirely new sort of multiplayer experience, in which you should go into Photoshop and recolor me excited.

This my return my interest if it is stealth and teamwork reliant rather then Godly Master Chief killing everything.
I've been into more stratgy and tactics recently, nothing better then a game that tests the mind ^^

Thats what I love, games that force you to think intelligently, on a normal basis, you would just run in and blast them all to hell, and while Legendary requires a bit more thinking cos you'll get owned if you just run and gun thoughtlessly, its still running and gunning.

If there is a downloadable version as well as the disc version, and they are the same price, then I'm going for the disc version.

Actually...
Halo 1 and Halo 2 are different engines for the most part.
