i really cant see how any FPS that doesnt support a mouse/keyboard  gets a 10/10

im sure "edge" will be enjoying thier check from M$

*disclaimer*
yes, halo is groundbreaking in term of console FPS graphics, and i do like the game, but its no MOH, and gamepads + FPS\'s = suck

Well, about the gamepad.... Im not sure how it works, but most reviews says the gamepad works just fine with this game.
Sure keyboard + mouse is always the best, but I guess not everyone want to buy that to their Xbox.
Im looking forward to the PC release :)
Right now, Im more then happy with Return to castle Wolfenstein.

No one loves their KB + Mouse combo more than me,. but I guarantee you will get used to Halo\'s controls. The game is that good. Once you get sucked in, your hands will become one with the pad.

Trust me, after playing for hours, jumping around, strafing, dodging bullets, ducking, etc, it all becomes second-nature. Better than what the KB + Mouse would provide? No. But it\'s not that bad.

I\'d have to agree with the review--once you play the game you start to wonder if keyboard and mouse is really the way to go (it is, but it makes you wonder still).  It is that good.

They should get an extra mark for making the pad work as well as they do.  The game is phenominal and frankly, I don\'t like the idea of using a K&M combo in my livingroom..

I agree with mm, The controller setup will never be as accurate and comfy as a keyboard/mouse combo. And where is true online play, which halo was acually being developed for.

NO I see that they are biased once again, Halo is getting far too much credit IMO

Play the game through a couple of levels, sitting on your couch, with a 5.1 system blaring, and then come back and say that again. (You won\'t.)
