"It's not a huge issue, but after beating Halo 2 and going back to play Halo, Bungie's ship and interior designs are almost as repetitive in both architecture and texturing as before"

Ick. At this point I looked at IGN's rating and totally discounted the review. TBH, it sounds like their 9.8 rating is a justification of Insanely high 9.7 rating for Halo 1. Those corridor problems made me detest Halo 1 Single Player with a passion... how they were ever overlooked in a balanced review was beyond me... And now they're doing it again. Oh well. Then again, I suppose the Multiplayer balances it all out somehow. It's not really a matter of interest for me though... I'd rather have perfect single-player than multi-player :/

Interesting that Gamespot found the story uninteresting and didn't like the ending. My guess is that's a matter of opinion (I know for a fact that every one of you guys on this forum will love it! I can't wait for this game either... Coming to PC and Mac in the year 2072!). As for the length... I find that disappointing. You know, you wait for a sequel and then it ends up pretty damned short. Wait a minute... I'm complaining about a game that sounds pretty amazing, that I really want to play but won't before I know that I can never play it on a PC? Crazy ^^

Edit: More scores in:
XBN: 10/10
1Up.com: 10/10
Eurogamer: 9/10 (Single Player Only Review)

I'm still trying to think of other review sources ^^
