I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

ODST>CE>Reach>2>3>4

Reach doesn't get enough credit; it actually had a lot of symbolism, foreshadowing, and irony in it, plus more. And while the characters may have not been as well developed as previous games, it was pretty good for a stand alone game. It's also sad how people do not recognize the planet as a character. Overall, it was very well told, but just not as thrilling or mysterious as the others.

My Brahman is ready.

I have to say, although I was somewhat disappointed by the short amount of missions, Halo 4 had redeemed the series for me.

It's not perfect, but it got the ball rolling again.

It was stupid and too ridiculous for a Halo story.

No.

Too ridiculous? How so?


The Didact can force choke people? Chief somehow got an immunity to being vaporized? Chief somehow miraculously got saved from a nuke?

In Halo 4's defense, The Librarian did use some pixie magic on Le Chief.

I don't see you doing anything to help our country.
Except sitting at home, naked, eating twinkies, rubbing your hands together going "Heh. Target Destroyed. Mission Accomplished." Oh wait. that's not helping.

You can't compare Halo 4 to Bungie's earliest Halo. It should be held to the standards of Halo 3, their best. Holding it to 2001 standards is very weak.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

1) Didact's suit can manipulate gravity and 2) Cortana teleported him off the ship.

No. I thought it was very boring. The only thing I enjoyed was the last cutscene with Cortana.

'Κύριε Ἰησοῦ Χριστέ, Υἱὲ τοῦ Θεοῦ, ἐλέησόν με τὸν ἁμαρτωλόν.'

Amazing, on the same par as Halo CE and Halo 2--both of which had the greatest campaigns. I think that Halo 4 went hard and 343i outdid themselves. My only complaint about the campaign is that I believe the Promethean Knights are somewhat overpowered.

Also, I don't get why people praise Halo 3's campaign as being so good. Being honest, Halo 3's campaign was actually crap. It was WAAY too short, somewhat boring and repetitive, and lacked the exploration element that the others had. Halo 4 had a much better campaign. The only campaign that I think was better than it (arguably) was Halo 2's.

That's why I put Halo 3 at the bottom. By far the worst campaign. Pointless first half, and the worst Halo mission in history (Cortana).

Shutdown was worse. I'll take the Flood over Prometheans any day.

Mythical Group

There is no greater catharsis than arguing on the Flood.

My ranking would be Reach>3>ODST>4>2>1

"Banhammer" - Post anything on the Waypoint forums -50g
Never forget:
Porch Day
lolReach
Gen Petitt Day

Of course a fanboy like you would think that it's the best.

OT: Nope.

Reach should definitely be near the top, I'd put ODST before 3 though.

If I ever see anyone post in a thread "That's your opinion", I immediately lose all respect for them.

Also, if you're discussing a topic with me and you resort to name calling, pull "life checks", or just call anything you don't agree with retarded without giving legitimate reasons, don't expect me to take you serious in anyway what so ever.

It felt like they tried to establish the new story and set up the sequels too much in one game and ended up tripping over their own feet because of it.
