Halo 3's is still the best, in my opinion. Very clear and quick to navigate.

Well, it was one of the best. Best Halo UI.

Press X and you'll not be disappointed, it's basically Reach's UI but pefected.
Does X change the layout?

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

I agree that it's pretty poor, Halo 3's was the best IMo since you could just jump from lobby to lobby no matter where you were in the menu. Halo 4's is too blocky, setting up games feels like those puzzles where you slide the panels around to make a picture.

It's the same as Reach's, basically.

Reach still probably has one of the best UIs I've used.

Microsoft used their Window 8 software engineer to make the UI for Halo 4.

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this were true.

Also, I like blue (it's my favorite color in fact), but it's such a pain to look at when the whole screen is enveloped in it. Why couldn't they stick with the Reach UI? This one is so cramped. I know MP is cannon now but... damn.

You also can't tell if people are in a party anymore, which sucks.

Reach had best UI.

4's is dog vomit.

Can you snag a pic of it while you're at it?

We should know better, because we are better.

I hate the user interface. I much preferred Reach's style.

Halo 4 is the only game UI I've ever gotten angry at.
Yep. It truly is god awful. Bungie has some very unique skills in this area, very unique indeed. I've loved every UI they designed. This one is just, I don't understand it.

If you only see it for 20 seconds, than it doesn't have to be convenient.

Worst logic ever.

If you press a gamertag you have every option you had in Reach.

Reach had the best UI while Halo 3 had the best HUD

Halo 2 pioneered the kind of UI that a lot games use today. It's functional, clean, and easy to navigate.

343 obviously didn't have those things in mind when they designed Halo 4's UI. It seemed like they changed it just for the sake of changing it.

If I haven't fired you yet, it's because I'm still firing your mom in bed.

My favorite part is when it randomly changes my connectivity to local only, and won't let me play matchmaking. It took me a week to figure out HOW to change the connectivity back. PRETTY SURE that if you get disconnected in the previous games then reconnect, it automatically changed you back to XBL. just, dafu?
