1. Online is mostly dead, very few people online, you may be able to find a few good parties/matches though, depends on the time of day.
2. Its especially worth playing for LAN parties, granted you have a lot of friends IRL.
I personally liked it for the modding, but then I moved to Halo 2 on the Xbox, that was years ago xD.
