The 411 On 343's Halo Waypoint

Get a guided tour of the Halo portal coming next month to an Xbox 360 near you.

To me, this whole Halo Waypoint thing has felt kind of nebulously defined, as Microsoft and its Halo strike force 343 Industries have been describing it over the last couple of months. Other than "a place on your Xbox 360 to look at Halo stuff," I haven't been entirely sure what Waypoint would entail.
 
Microsoft has clearly decided that confusion needs clearing up, as it's sent out a full walkthrough video showing you a bunch of the major features in Waypoint, not to mention what the interface will look like. Here's that! 

 

   
 
There's also a bunch of new screenshots showing this stuff off in higher resolution. (Check the gallery for the full-size shots.) By the way, this whole shebang is being co-created by Certain Affinity, a group of former Bungie employees and maker of fine piratical strategy games.
 

  
Let's hear it, Halo fans. Are you still invested enough in Bungie's opus to spend significant time messing around with this thing? And what do you think of it, from what you're seeing here?
