Although I already knew that AI was a huge component in the Halo Trilogy, I never knew how complex the system was! But when you think about it, the task of the AI is far from simple: reacting to the player, and I think Bungie really nailed it. Great article!

I never knew that. That's the only fault I have with Halo: it doesn't let you adjust various audio levels like every other modern game in existance. I find the dialogue far too quiet (but I can't turn up my T.V. to hear it or the FX and music will be too loud to bare). The Brutes in the barracks were going to eat the marines? I never knew that.

Woot woot woot! Actually, I might just play Halo 2 to relive it =) ... Oh and nice article. Please continue with the hindsight series!

Woot woot woot!

I personally have much more fun fighting the Elites in Halo CE and Halo 2 then the Brutes in Halo 3. The Elites seem (and indeed are) so much quicker then the Brutes, and this made fighting a single red Elite on Legendary a challenge. When fighting the high ranking Brutes in Halo 3, I only really had a challenge in dealing with the ones who had multiple allies around them. The only Brutes that I feel can really hold their own in Halo 3 are the one's wielding hammers, and the only strategy to fighting a Hammer-wielding brute is to backpedal and fill them with lead. Not so fun, in my opinion. Great article.

AI is so huge, and you don't really realize how seamless and varied Bungie's efforts in the department are until you play another game. I for one thought that Halo: CE's AI was a smidge better than Halo 2's but that's an opinion. I love the way you write all this stuff, and it's really helped in rekindling a lot of my Halo memories. The hindsight series especially gets me itching to play Halo 3. Any chance you can do some on the previous two games (or allow submissions)? lol and the big question... how are you going to shine a positive light on "Cortana"? Ah excellent piece once again vociferous.
