If you're going to post and flame todd for not liking Halo 2 for whatever reason, don't. Nobody wants to further a meaningless debate.

That being said, I actually did enjoy halo 2's multiplayer, aside from the little kids, the bad attitudes, and broken physics resulting in super bounces and the like. It's not game-breaking, but it's close. Still, multi can be a blast if you're playing with the right people, and hey, 2 million games in and still going strong says something.

I am excited to see if and how Bungie approaches those issues, like weapon hoarding and un-nerfing the pistol (without giving it an invisble scope..what?) I'll miss the noob/pro combo, since it sounds like they're changing that up a bit, just means it'll be time to adapt.

Brutes look cool, should be fun/painful to play on Legendary. Hopefully they'll be able to wrap up the storyline and give us an ending worthy of the Halo trilogy.

I'm excited that the maps are 360 exclusive...hopefully it'll keep the modders at bay for a bit.
I think when Epic updates the ranked battles to include some sort of clan battles, I'll still be iffy with their multi-player...otherwise a brilliant game and definitely a step towards a dominate franchise.

OMG please let it be a Kabuki Warriors sequel...or maybe Blinx 3?!?!
