It's the fourth full installment to the Halo franchise, but that doesn't make it a "Halo 4". In my opinion, the only way a Halo game could ever have the title of "Halo 4" was if it continued the Covenant onslaught on Humanity storyline, alongside the Flood infestation, and the doomsday threat of the Halo installations.
Since Bungie has confirmed that the mainstream portions of these three story arcs are done with, there will never be a Halo game titled "Halo 4". People unfortunately don't understand that that doesn't necessarily mean there won't be a continuation of Master Chief's and Cortana's stories after Halo 3.
In fact, Frank O'Connor confirmed at Emerald City that the Halo franchise would see Master Chief and Cortana return to the mainstream in the future, as they were not done with them, so there will be furtherance of the timeline... but it will not deal with the same things that the original trilogy dealt with. For all we know, an entirely new trilogy could begin.
