What I didn't like about halo 4's music is that most of them didn't feel like musical scores that help create a scene or pieces of game play but rather just accompanied you in the background as you play (I'm not talking about the music not being loud enough I mean the style and attitude of the music). The music in Halo 4 isn't bad or anything I think a lot of it lacks variety and personality, I was listening to some of halo 4 tracks and despite them obviously being different tracks from each other I got a same feeling from them, they all seemed to give of a dark droning mood. What I did like about the older Halo music (Halo ce-3) is that they did feel like musical scores, there was plenty of variety and personality from them that made scenes and missions from the games very memorable. The different kinds of style and attitude from Halo ce-3 music was plentiful and really worked to give iconic moments and feeling towards the games and the lore. The music imo helps or in fact makes you look at the halo universe/lore in different perspectives, makes you look and think about the Halo story as a whole in different ways but at the same time when you step back and think of all the different pieces of music, their different styles and vibes all come together to create a unique and iconic feel for the Halo universe and the franchise. Here's some expamples of what I mean, here are tracks that are very different from each other but still have the same stamp on them if you know what I'm saying.
