Halo Reach

Has anybody got it yet?  What do you think?

I played a bit of it at Pax. It felt a lot like a more responsive version of Halo2. But I'm terrible at FPS and when I finally got a tank, someone jumped on my tank and punched it to death.

the gamestop people wouldnt let me leave unless they mentioned the damn game lik 45 times, even trying to get me to pre-order it so I could come back at midnight to pick it up.

Sorry, that sounds so funny. In a "badly balanced game" kind of way. (you can punch tanks and win?!)

The person has to get up to the vehicle first, which can be difficult if the pilot is better at shooting than I am, and then jump onto it and start punching. I think the infantry guy basically punches a hole in the armour, then drops a grenade in and the tank blows up. It levels the playing field a bit between infantry and vehicle combat. It actually works pretty well, believe it or not.

I was busy trying to figure out which button could get me out of the tank when it blew up. But at that point, I knew I probably wasn't going to be allowed to drive the tank again.
