Congratulations to developers 343 Industries and Vanguard Games for not going with a first person perspective 3D shooter. Technically this is possible, as we've seen with ports of Mass Effect: Infiltrator and N.O.V.A. 3, but forcing the full console experience into a smartphone does lead to a number of compromises, especially on the controls and the detail that can be presented on screen to the player.
Yes, it's a touch picky, and considering the mess that Gun Bros made of an almost identical control system, I'm just happy that Halo's control system is far better. The final finesse is missing, but I'm not sure that's worth chasing on a smartphone, because the control system works, and after about ten minutes I wasn't consciously focussed on what to do, my gaming head simply went "run behind those barrels while shooting to the side like a Sam Peckinpah" and I did. No need to think about the controls, no worrying where to move my thumbs, it was instinctive.
