Well this is my first Bungie game, and I suppose I wasn't as surprised as most people here apparently. I have never had the opportunity to play a beta that was so polished. And because I had read around the time of the beta that what I was playing was around a fifth of the game, what I got in the full game was honestly what I expected...although the extra gear and daily/weekly strike options were a cool addition. again, though, reading about the game beforehand, my expectation was that I would be getting access to would be about 4-5x more material. So my opinion has been constant and remains to be a positive one. And I am looking forward to playing the halo series for the first time with Halo MCC!
