This is rather negative to say but, I was thinking last evening, after several hours playing ODST Firefight on Lost Platoon, that Microsoft should have given Halo back to Bungie as a thank you for the game franchise making them trainloads of money. I think that Halo needs to rest for a few years. I believe 343 and has no idea what to do with this franchise. Besides that, Halo appears to be just a vehicle used to launch low quality, inexpensive Halo related throw-away content. I would like to see future Halo games just get back to the basics. The Gears of War games stuck to the basics throughout all the games and they were very successful and I still play them regularly.
Halo 4 sit's in a drawer gathering dust unless my wife wants to play it from time to time. She likes to assassinate the Promethean whatever-they-are-Knights. So I guess it serves some purpose, but just not for me.
Hell, give Halo back to Bungie and let the small group that created ODST create the next Halo game. I love ODST and Firefight. Great writing, outstanding music and an enjoyable story with the Rookie and his squadmates. New Mombasa streets would have been better for me if Bungie added more enemies, and removing the migraine inducing Red-screen-o-pointless in Firefight would have been great too. But I still play it and I always have fun in ODST.
