xbox, halo, observations - two questions

I was in a video games store earlier today and out of curiousity played Halo in the store(didn''t buy anything). First, I take back every nasty thought I had about the XBox controller but it''s still not my favorite(the playstation is my favorite although the right analog stick can get in the way when trying to do some things). Intuitive except I play a lot space and flight combat games so I kept pushing the joystick the wrong way when trying to point the gun up and down but that''s my fault. Enemy AI, I thought it was neat that they ducked behind obstacles and all but in about one minute the pattern was pretty predictable - or was that just me? Does the ai gets better as the game goes on? I don''t know how far along in the game I was but the objective was to find the entrance to the map room and I started by driving around in that vehicle.
