It's not a faulty Xbox. The problem only applies to co-op though. When playing co-op, an actual hard drive is required and memory units/USB stick don't count. Here's confirmation. There's apparently also some disc read issues popping up, but that's beside the point.

Anywho, I've played about four fifths of the way through the campaign at a buddy's house and it's good, but I still don't get what makes Halo so much more popular than other shooters. I suppose I don't have the same vested interested as others as I've barely played the other games (and that I don't play multiplayer), but taking Reach in a vacuum, it more or less felt like just another shooter to me, albeit one that doesn't let me aim down the sights (I hate not being able to do that). It was good, don't get me wrong, but I've done it all before.

This. Co-op is one of the modes we play the most here. Especially in games when we can sabotage each other. I have fond memories of past Halo where shooting one of the people near you while your mate was in the thick of them would send them all hostile with much cursing...

It's part of why I love Halo. Just not single player or online multi.

I haven't played the campaign much at all actually except for like the first level. Some of my friends say that the campaign wasn't all to good. I think that, that game was pretty much just made fro an all out excellent multiplayer experience and from what I've played of the multiplayer i have to say that it kicks a**.
