I've played with boxer control scheme since Halo 1, so it's nothing new. Any good Halo player knows the right time to punch. The lunge in Halo 3 is pretty shitty now, though it is still there. It's not nearly as ridiculous as it was in Halo 2. I wish they had taken the lunge away for good. As a friend of mine said - Master Chief doesn't have fucking jet packs. He shouldn't be able to lunge like he does, especially not in mid air.
But oh well, I've always punched in Halo, and the people I play with use it so I guess I don't notice an increase in its usage at all.
