Tomorrow, Halo goes back to Hollywood Video, and I don’t plan to play it again. Maybe it’s great for multiplayer. I may never know. It’s a cool game, and I really want to like it, but its flaws are too deep and too many.

So, for a long time I thought of Steel Battalion as “that expensive game.” Slowly, though, ever so slowly, it wormed its way into the gottahaveit center of my brain. Steel Battalion was one of the big reasons I wanted an XBX, in the end. Less than a week after my wife gave me the XBX, I gave myself Steel Battalion.

Well, it was inevitable, right? I got an XBX, I would try Halo. I waited five whole days, and then I rented it.

So, I got an XBX. I won’t get into the details. Largely, I wanted it to play JSRF. I really liked JSR on my Dreamcast, and I figured the sequel would be extra awesome.
