Character customization? That's literally all I have.

Reach did that better.
Did it? I never considered flaming helmets and "YAY! YAY! YAY!" good customization.

I'm talking Halo: Reach gave you body, shoulders, gauntlet add on, armor effect, knee pads, tactical pack, helmets, and helmet expansions. It just felt more personal, that and the fact that the Halo 4 player models are so ugly that any customization is counteracted by the fact that there are all of 4 good armor sets.

The armour in reach didn't look like a crack addict designed it

In Halo 3's time? Of course. Nowadays? Nope.

I get more entertainment playing Halo 4 than Halo 3 today. Therefore, Halo 4 provides more entertainment.

is opinion based I am pretty sure the OP wants some kind of fact based statement.

Even then there are other shooters that do customization better. Look at RSV 1 and 2 you could change your character's appearance so much in terms of looks, armor color, weapons, ect. Even then I am sure there are some other games that do better.

OT: Variety. You can do a number of things in Halo 4.

More variety in Reach and 3. Halo 4 isn't the best at variety.

This. Reach, and especially Halo 3 had more gametypes and better forge maps.

Well yeah, I know Reach isn't the best at it, I just wanted to use an example that I knew everyone here would know. Easier that way, no links required.

Meteor Doggy, Internet Scallywag.

Well, I like Halo 4. I enjoy it, and I'm in the considerable minority in this case.

Yes, yes I do

That is what I thought in which case there really isn't anything I can think of. Pretty much everything Halo 4 does from a technical standpoint there are other shooters that do it better.

I see your point I am just saying even if he says Halo 4 does it better than Reach by a slight amount there are other shooters that do it better.

Halo 2's AI are smarter. Even then there are harder games out there.

Good story/cinematics.

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.

Don't make me link the video of the banshee crashing into a wall, blowing up, and then the elite continuing to run into said wall. Just don't even make me go there.

Lol I want to see this. Link please.

I honestly can't think of anything that makes it stand out. All shooters are basically intertwined with similar mechanics. Sort of sad really, all today's FPS are just mediocre copies of what was great in the past.

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 got 2 banshees to do it simultaneously. All I had to do was stare at them. They were like "Oh -blam!- master chief is staring at me, I better hurry up run into the wall or ground and try to dig my own grave!" I laughed that sometimes they would just run into each other and blow up. It wasn't happening rarely either.

You aren't fooling me. What makes it good is the quality of the features, not the features themselves.
