It isn't Halo. That's just the problem here. It's fun, but it isn't Halo.

I loved Halo 4's campaign save for a few niggles. That said, my favourite part of the Halo universe isn't the ancient civilisations, but how their legacies and machinations affect current days affairs in the universe. That's why I thought [i]Halo 2[/i] was a massive step up from [i]CE[/i] in terms of plot (I've always said CE tells a story where 2 tells a universe) and why I'm looking forward to Halo 5. We're back in known space.
