"Whatever whatever" is my general attitude, assuming this isn't a misinterpretiation by us, Haloplayers, or the UK mag. I personally thing that walking around in first and driving in 3rd would be dandy.
And although I own mightily in most shooter games, my 3rd skills were hardwired into my innocent developing brain during the many hours I spent making Mario bash blocks during my childhood. (I don't know if you've ever played against prepubescents who cut their gaming teeth on Counterstrike, but I'm telling you now it's frickin' scary. And emasculating.)
