Everyone enjoying reliving the experience?

I know this game was the reason I got back into gaming. Since the MC collection was announced I have been at the edge of my seat. Now installing it I'm already having flashbacks to when I first popped in Halo CE and played on the original X-Box. How were your experiences leading up to this game? How are your experiences playing through the Master Chiefs historic and revolutionary story again?

I'm having an awesome time. I've played a mission or two in each of the campaigns and I'm loving it. Especially H2A, the graphics are great and the cutscenes are awesome.

of course, I don't play multiplayer that often... After reading all the complaints on here I did try to join matchmaking but alas it's not working for me either. Hopefully 343 gets it worked out soon.In the meantime I would say to all the people having trouble, enjoy some H2A campaign while it gets worked out.

Can't play mm for multiple reasons. Tried to play H2:A campaign but the audio for the cutscenes is bugged (voices are either low volume or completely mute). Can't even join my friend in a party.

Not really sure what to do. Run around in forge? Can't say I am thrilled with this "experience" so far.

I pre ordered it and now they've changed delivery date to the 14 :( highly disappointed with the carrier

I let my GF play H2A, Cairo Station - got sick of waiting for matchmaking to start working. 2 hours in and she only made it up to the boarding party. It was on easy. She isn't a gamer. The expletives and gestures spewing forth were funny as hell. She eventually rage quit asking me how I could enjoy something like this. I do remember being that bad though, Halo: CE, trying to wrap my tiny girl hands around the original Duke controller. Pretty sure I rage quit too back then.

Nope - this is nothing like the experience of the Halo 2 launch. The experience I had 10 years ago involved software that WORKED. This is just abysmal.

Loving it and couldn't be happier :)

Played the first two missions on Halo CEA and am loving that 1080p 60fps goodness! Haven't tried multiplayer, but it sounds like most people are having problems. Good thing I play Halo for the campaign experience!

Go into your xbox settings for sound and change it from 7.1 surround to stereo and it should fix the cut-scene issue.
