: I mean, you walk around

: 'thon at all.
lol, Isn't that sort of what we do in Marathon? The only difference is instead of maps being thrown up on terminals we have Cortana and waypoints to show us where to go.
: So far it seems very, VERY linear.
True, there is but one storyline. I think if Halo's maps had been easier to create and Bungie had more resources during development you may have seen a non-linear story. They also had to take into account the target market, it's possible that console fans are less likely to enjoy/comprehend a story that is both deep and non-linear.
: Does it get better?
The more I play it, the more I like it...
: Thanks,
