Yes i've read the books.
Bought the first one on a drunken whim, and was surprised when it turned up (ordered online), then one day i thought sod it, ill read it. I was quite shocked at how good it was, heartily recommended IF you like the halo series.
Book 2 is basically halo the game in book form (bit meh..), 3rd is not bad, but its the first book that shines, giving a very detailed account of the birth of the spartan program. Yeah is schlocky sci-fi, but i was always a sucker for those type's of books.

BAHAHAHA Suckers, i love living next to redmond!!!! I get to do theese things called ''Playtests'' where microsoft calls me and is like 'Hey! wanna come play this new game we are working on?" and im like "Well, i dunno." and they are like "Call ya back?" and im like "Naw, JK, sure ill play your awsome new game!!!"
Also :D games dont run out here, i just called all the local stores each have several copies left! (if you live in the kent , WA area and cant find a copy contact me in game ill point ya to a store ;)
I kinda dislike its popularity tho. Really i hate all the TV spots, the specials, its all interesting and all. But it kinda ****es me off, i mean what the hell does the local news have to do with my FPS  why cant they put more press on the PC boys, get eve some spot time.

Picked my Xbox (special edition) up at about 11am today, and Halo3 with it. Started playing as soon as i got home at about 11:20, finished it about 10minutes ago at 19:15. Including bathroom breaks and stuff, that puts total length at somewhere between 7 and 8 hours. I'd hesitently call myself an average gamer aswell, so its pretty short. Which kinda sucks, but other than that its pretty good all told.
No Bioshock or HL2 though tbfh.
Best bit is taking on two scarabs at once, was giggling like a little girl all through that section. Awesome fun.
I would complain about about it not being worth thirty quid or whatever it was, but that said most of the Halo fun is in the multiplayer.

I never even went past the first level in Halo 2 Campaign.
Halo 3 campaign is much better and far more strategic, and success does come down to bringing or picking up the right weapons for the job at hand, and combo use of weapons. The Halo 3 campaign will be far betetr off because 4 players can do it co-op now.

I'm sorry to say, but the Halo games never brought anything really new to the scene. Neither storyline, graphics or immersion. I own both Halo and Halo 2 and they are great console games, but it does not really compare to anything we PC owners have been used to for several years.
Halo, when first released on the PC was just very... Generic. Yet good when it came to console gamng.
Thats my opinion anyway.

What difficulty? I'm playing it online right now, quite similar to Halo 2, but it's awesome fun.

Good that console owners have something to jump about again :) me? I still havent made up any good excuse for myself to buy a console.
Halo is good on consoles but pretty bland on PC (mostly because it comes years later) and that's why you see all those PC users go "Halo? pfeh!"
Played the first one, never got around the second (Vista requirement and smashing PC reviews). But I scrolled through the story and it was quite okay. Found a good summary here
Now waiting for similar recap on H3 and then I'll be satisfied :)
If anyone finds a good summary on H3 story then I would be delighted to have it.
