Halo 4 tries to be like CE but it fails to capture the spirit.
Halo series: 1-ODST
Halol series: Reach-Halo 4.
Halol is a comedic series of video games that pretend to be like 1-3 and fail. Nothing in the Halol series is to be taken seriously.Halol is where hate is the #1 virtue. This is especially apparent in the characters.
You know, I've been thinking about making a topic comparing Halo and Home Alone (not on Waypoint obviously, all my topics get ignored, like this one).
Home Alone 2 is very similar to Home Alone 1 except it has a different setting and some plot twists. Otherwise, you still get:
-kid's alone
-family -blam!-s up
-same bad guys
-clever use of tv scenes
-an outcast/stranger who the boy initially fears but then gets to know the person and he/she comes in to save him when he's caught
And it was enjoyable. Home Alone 2 = Halo 2 and 3
Then Home Alone 3 featured a different character in a different setting with a more serious mindset. Yet it managed to retain the funny. Home Alone 3 = ODST
Now comes Home Alone 4, made for tv, pretty bland and unoriginal. The actor who played the character from the first film was not as charismatic. But there were a lot of cues towards the original. Home Alone 4 = Reach
Finally, Home Alone 5. Looked nice, was more enjoyable than #4, also had some cues to past films, but it just didn't hook. There wasn't much to fear about the bad guys this time. A bunch of art thieves... there weren't nearly as clever or funny moments as in the first three films. And it just seemed rushed at times. Home Alone 5 = Halo 4
What a brilliant comparison!
