Go go Silver membership. I quite enjoyed it. It's interesting to see so many high quality CG cutscenes in this game, whereas the actual Halo games had none. Definitely a lot of production value here.

I think it might be the best attempt at an RTS gameplay design on a console.... but its still an RTS on a console.

I found the demo (at least the campaign) rather bland, generic, and boring.

I had fun/still having fun with it.
And yeah, the campaign in the demo isnt that great, I like skirmish mode much more, get to see more units and upgrade more things.

I liked it for what it was. The gameplay was ridiculously bland stepping down from the high collective thrones of Dawn of War, Company of Heroes, Warcraft 3, Supreme Commander, and Dominions 3 though. Also, Helljumper ODSTs are gamebreakers, no contest.
