Yeah dude, thanks, that was a good read! I don't necessarily subscribe to the massive Halo-hating that's seemingly becoming popular, cuz I thought Halo 2 had a genuinely good story, but then Halo 3 completely ruined it by not going into any more detail on the machinations of the Covenant or the Arbiter and just wrapping up everything very artificially (the entire end of the flood and covenant? Come on...)
