In a certain point of view, yes. but me personally I love Halo, but i know it's 343i's game, so i was expecting it to be different. Not that different is bad but I think Halo needed a refresher. It was the same thing over and over again with bungie. If halo 4 was made by bungie i think we would've seen a worse game than Reach. I think bungie was getting tired of halo so that's why reach sucked IMO
