I totally agree with most everything here, with a few points of my own,

1. The whole "dual wield" thing was overated
2. I also noticed how the handicapped some of the vehicles in multiplayer, The wraith tank does not have the little pulse lasers in multiplayer as it does in the regular game and the banshee does not have the fuel rod cannon as well.
3. Didn't like the battle rifle really either. Liked the addition of the scope, hated the 3 round burst, needed a selector switch or something.
4. They really screwed the pistol taking off the scope. In the original the pistol was one of the handiest little guns in that game.
5. Liked the faster recycling rate of fire on the tank's main gun.

did anyone watch the end after the credits had rolled and it showed the Flood "king" ( as I like to call it) talking to cortana? I didn't think the master chief was supposed to let her out of his posession? he's gonna get court-martialed. lol...
