  10. The Good • Lots of gametypes • Forge lets you create gametypes and maps • More replayability than previous games • Unlockables • Daily / weekly challenges • Campaign is difficult but beatable

  11. The Bad • AI in campaign can be buggy • Limited gametypes in matchmaking • More will be added once they are sure everything is working as planned • Lots of redone maps from halo 2 • May not be a bad thing though
