Actually, Halo 4 is A LOT better than Halo 2 or 3 were 2 months after they came out. Did you even play these games from the get-go? They were absolute shite. I remember how pissed everyone was at Halo 2 after it came out. SMG start on maps like Ascension? Super-jumping on top of every map? Sword glitching at someone 1/4 mile away? The noob combo? People were bashing Bungie right and left for ruining the franchise.

It took several months, multiple map updates, custom gametypes, and LOTS of tweaking to get it where everyone remembers it.

Halo 4 has its flaws, yes, but it is a lot closer than its predecessors were at the same time. Right now it is mostly missing maps. Yeah, the DMR is too easy to use and bloom is stupid, but that is why MLG (and now VGL) is going towards a BR start. Have you played very many customs with the newest settings? It isn't bad.

I just don't think it is fair to compare a 2 month game that hasn't received any major updates yet to a game that had multiple years to get it right. Just be patient.
