: Am I the only one around here who kind of enjoyed Halo 4? It wasn't perfect,
: but come on. It's not the disaster that everybody is making it out to be.
: Granted I've played very little multiplayer, and I am not very into the
: extended universe, so complaints regarding those aspects I can't really
: relate to.

: But as a foundation, I think it's pretty strong. Fix some things like the art
: direction, quicktime events, stage gimmicks, and weapon overlap, and I
: think the next one could be a great game easily.

I think the next game could be great, with some serious changes. I would absolutely add level design and writing to the list of things that need serious improvement. I enjoyed some parts of Halo 4, for sure, but it is the only Halo game that I haven't replayed many times.Also, I tried one round of the first Spartan Ops by myself, and it felt like someone had modded some enemies into an existing map at random. And I absolutely agree with the previous post that Halo has become a media event more than a game. I do not understand the Spartan Ops episodes. The resources they are pouring into a mediocre sci-fi TV show should be going into the game instead.
