I agree with you OP, but when you say it was the pinnacle of Halo it gives the idea of halo entering into a non-stop decline, can't we at least have some hope?


Well, I don't think it's declining that much. I like Halo 4, however it has a lot of frustrating game mechanics, and the fact that Customs and Forge are worse than Reach's infuriates me.

I really hope with Halo 5 and the better power of the next console, they don't have to remove anything, and only expand.

I can't even comprehend how you can be this dumb.

Online Gaming's pretty much like a zombie movie. There are a lot of mindless idiots roaming around but you find some survivors on the way.

If you're interested in vs threads, here's a sweet little group for you to join

I think the main complaint is that the campaign was a complete shambles.

The game had no plot until you were told to take Cortana to the Autumn, yet that plot itself was completely contrived because there is absolutely no explanation on why the Cortana fragment was at this "latchkey" artifact, nor what the artifact even did beyond the hint that it had something to do with Halo - which it couldn't have because Cortana already had the coordinates to Installation 04.

The scene where Jun takes Halsey away just leads into... nothing. He was just written out of the story without any kind of conclusion, all evidence pointing to him being dead since he's not at CASTLE Base when Red Team arrive and doesn't evacuate the planet when the Chief returns in the Ascendant Justice after Halo CE. The whole game could have just not had Jun in it and absolutely no difference would have been made to the 'story'.

Noble Team had no personality, the occasional banter they had was cringe-worthy at times. The only Spartans in Noble Team who even did anything important were Six and Kat, the rest sort of bumble along with no real role because there's no plot until the end of The package - at which point the two most interesting characters have already been killed off and Jun gets written out, while Six gets stuck with the 2 people who could have not been in the game and no difference would have been made.

Expressing my strong liberal views without shame. Favorite quotes below:

"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe."
"One starts to live when he can live outside himself."

- Albert Einstein

Reach was a good way to pulverize the foundations of the Halo lore. That's about it.

Difficulty: Halo 4 > Reach > Halo 3 > Halo 2 > CE

With enough incentive, I'd do that sniper alley fight with all skulls on... it's not nearly as frustrating as Spartan Ops, which has MOBILE snipers.

halo 3 customs were far better than reachs
I don't see how? Was there even a good race game type or any for that matter. Reach pretty much had very thing available to you and more how can more options mean not as good? I think your nostalgia is talking. Not to mention forge was ten times more advanced than halo 3 giving way more maps to have fun game types on.


You could make race out of VIP. Anyone who thinks Reach customs were better never really played H3 customs.

If you actually look at the OP along with his responses, you can see he's actually serious. No troll would go on for this long with the passion in his opinion the OP has.

Reach? That's a funny way of typing Halo 2.


Halo 2 was utter garbage. Reach wasn't considerably better though.

Halo CE is still the most challenging, balanced, and longest Halo game.

thats funny, it sounded almost like you said Halo CE was balanced. I still play Halo CE PC and its a blast, but I sure as hell know its not balanced.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

I played 2,000 games of it... I still think Reach customs were better.

Halo 3 was by the far the best Halo. Although many Halo fans can argue that CE was better. I wasn't around for Halo until Halo 2 so I never got a huge chance to play CE with the exception of Halo PC.

Be sure to tell everyone how cool you are. If you don't tell them, they won't know.

Spot on. I agree with this 100%
