Having never had a change to play Halo as a PC gamer, it is nice to be able to play the venerable classics. M+K controls feel good, and switching between games works well.

One of the best CRPGs I have ever played. While I cannot comment on the realm management aspect of the game, the developers have developed a producet that feels like sitting down and playing the game with your buddies. The game is willing to throw things at you that you cannot yet handle, rewards exploration but does not require it, encourages talking to people rather than just killing them where possible. Having a balanced party and using their abilities in a complimentry manner is essental. A good combination of healing, HP, AOE damage and offensive/defensive spellcasting is vital to dealing with large encounters. Resource management and camping is a wonderful experiance, it is granular enough to be engaging, but not so granular as to be fiddly. At the same time, I dont want to waste time camping after every encounter, so resource and spell management is essental.

NOTE: The above is my experiance playing with a custom difficulty, setting the enemies damage and health to the standard pathfinder ruleset, as well as encumberance-as-travel-speed. Otherwise played on nomal mode.

My only faults with the game are that the inital load times are a bit long (I have an HD, not an SSD though), and that the movement AI sometimes likes to wander into spotted traps.
