I had enough of Reach after I ran into two guys who armor locked my grenade right back into my face. :inb4isuck:

Halo 2 is the golden standard.

Nevermind the variations of shitty ability additions they made with 3 and Reach, Halo 4 took everything that made Halo unique and just copy and pasted from every other twitch shooter out there now. After they ruined arguably one of the best storylines in video game history of course.

"Thanks for trusting us with the game you love."

Thanks for your halfassed amateur approach to changing everything that was good about it.

I thought Mass Effect fans were whiny.

Equipment hardly made Halo 3 shitty. Halo 3 was still a great MP game.

it's a no win situation for game developers.

stick with what works and you are being lazy and formulaic.

attempt to change and you've fricked up the franchise by altering the series' roots.

We should make a new thread about this. We've had lengthy discussions on this.

I'm a harsh critic of games as I get older, but I attribute it more to nostalgia and changing tastes than I do the competence of current game developers.

it was a bitter pill to swallow, but I finally realized it isn't them.... it's me.

Can't a man piss and moan about something he invested time and money in?
Besides, not like I'm playing it and bitching. I'll stick with Reach and 3. the abilities aren't as cheap in 3 as they are in Reach. Just pointing out the direction the series was taking after 2.

I've grown to accept the fact that CoD has become my favorite FPS. Until they put Halo 2 back online (they won't)

It isn't a great halo game. Its probably tied with reach for the worst.

Classic in Reach was the only game mode I could tolerate. I really liked Halo 3. I played the shite out of it. Halo 2 will always be the king of the Halo series.


IMO

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

A lot of people didn't pick up on Halo until 2 came out. They really missed out on the first Halo. It reinvented console FPS multiplayer IMO.
