Yeah, Spartans and Elites are the same hieght. I took this from a saved film, all of your multiplayer matches and campiegn missions are recorded temporarily and you can watch them in slow-mo, fast forward, tak screenshots like this or save clips from them.
As for the game itself, it's addictive, I never played multiplayer on Halo: CE or Halo 2, but it's very satisfying in Halo 3. There are different armor models you can use, the Elite I'm using is wearing silver assualt armor.
There are two armor options you have by default for both Spartans and Elites, but by earning achievments (in free-for-all ranked matchs) you earn different pauldrons, helmets, and bodyarmors. They're all just aesthetic, and have no effect on gameplay, but they look dang cool!
I beat the campiegn two days after starting out, normal difficulty btw, now I'm going through it again on heroic to try and get the different difficulty achievments. I haven't seen any glitches like super-jumping (well, there a gametype where players can run super-fast and jump like it's half normal gravity; it's such a cool feeling) but that doesn't count.
That picture also links you to my profile, so I can post video clips and more screenshots and anyone can look at my service record and view my comedic and epic multiplayer moments. If your husband liked any of the previous Halos, he
has to at least rent Halo 3, or try a demo somewhere.
The technology you can employ in campiegn and multi like the bubble shields, deployable covers, energy drainers, and radar jammers don't mess up gameplay, they enhance it and make it even more tactical than just fill someone with bullets/plasma.
