Halo 4

This game made every fans dream by bringing back the HALO franchise after Bungie left. Its story its pretty good and multiplayer is satisfactory even though its not at the quality of its predecessors.

Halo 4 is beyond incredible. I went to the midnight release, but unfortunately I had an early morning class at my college so I wasn't expecting to play it necessarily... Then I got to the dorm with my friends and realized... this is frickin' Halo, of course I gotta play it. Long story short, didn't go to class. Immediately it sucks you in. The graphics are by far the best graphics I have ever seen in any video game. It is absolutely astonishing. The campaign is award-worthy. However, for someone beating the game already I would recommend playing it on a lower difficulty to get the feel and message of the game first. I played it on Legendary and it is a PITA at some points by yourself. Although Halo 1 remains the hardest solo legendary experience in my personal experience. Halo 2 is the hardest co op legendary experience. Halo 3 (eh) and Reach (eh). Halo 4 is quite difficult in some parts and I must say the new enemy? The Prometheans? Are very challenging. As a warning, you should probably carry around a plasma pistol as your secondary to weaken their shields first because there are many times you are greeted by more than 5 knights and that is NOT a fun time (or carry around a scattershot).

Additionally, I must say, the campaign is a sad campaign. I won't give away anything even though it is probably circulating all over the Internet by now. It almost gave away from the experience and I am surprised 343 gave it such a ballsy ending but I haven't been disappointed with 343 yet so I am sure they have something big planned.

Multiplayer is very good. It is a little confusing at first to figure out how to navigate things on the screen. It is actually quite similar to Call of Duty in the aspect that you make your own classes. The only problem is it is a little more restricted whereas there are only so many weapons you can choose from depending on the game type. Also, there is a killcam so that also makes it similar to CoD for that reason. But lets be honest, the killcam was a genius idea. But do not worry, the feel is extremely different so it makes up for it. Also the maps are awesome and created perfectly where it is fair for both sides. There are camping spots, yes, but there is almost always a spot you can assassinate them from. It is a very nicely made game.

Firefight is gone, but Spartan Ops is alive (another thing similar to Call of Duty) where you complete brief missions at whatever difficulty; whether it is invading Promethean territory, or destroying jammers and eliminating covenant. Either way it is a nice touch, especially when you are not ready to have the campaign end. There are 5 missions for each chapter and as far as I know there are 5 chapters (Could be adding more).

All-in-all I say this will have a hard time being beat out by Black Ops 2 and by any game for that matter. It is an extraordinary ride and those of you who have given up on the halo series, I would highly recommend changing your views for this game. It is not the same as the rest, trust me. Keep gaming folks.

-10/10

this game is so awesome i couldn't stop playing it for about 15 hours.

EXCELLENT good job 343 studios!! when I started this game I was amazed by the graphics but the MP was excellent

I personally didn't like MLG pro but... the MP was overall amazingly good I loved the flood mode especially The campaign was amazing with a detailed storyline It was too good Too good to be true... with many different tips and tricks this game grabbed my attention immediately You should get it because it is so amazing

that is my awesome review of halo 4 which will overall make it to the best of the best GEt it now for 59.99 at game stop

Now let me tell ya...Halo 4 is the best halo game to date. It has good multiplayer,campaign, graphics, and co-op too.

The multiplayer is fun and stuff. It has lots of great maps like Longbow and Adrift. The multiplayer has all the game modes any shooter fan would ask for like TDM,FFA,CtF, and even Infection! The multiplayer rarely ever lags and is very stable. The game's customization is better than ever with over 100 sets of armor with thousands of combinations. Halo 4 is also the first Halo game to introduce customizable load-outs in Public matchmaking. If you prefer default load-outs like Halo 3, those game types are still playable. The Forge mode is new and improved with 4 forge maps with hundreds of addable items, blocks, and buildings.

The campaign is more cinematic in Halo 4, the new graphics engine and lighting help it become if not the best looking game to ever come out on the Xbox 360. It has a Very good story with a very good diversity in missions, never letting anything get old.

Halo 4 is the best Halo game and deserves a complete 10 in my opinion!

If you have been a fan of the Legendary trilogy of Halo through its duration, you would have, like I, been coming into this whole new introduction expecting (and maybe hoping)for it to crash and burn.

However, 343 has done an excellent job. What I really like is their company name, as it is a reference to 343 Guilty Spark, a large contributor to the Halo universe. They have not destroyed the name of Halo; they have raised it to a whole new level

The campaign is extremely fun, and not too long (8 missions). The story line between Master Chief and Cortana was chalked up to be more than it came out to be, but I found it to be more profound than other Halo story-lines, even if it didn't move me to tears. I blame that on the (while good) soundtrack that just wasn't quite Martin O'Donnell level.

The online play from what I've seen is great: they took some factors from Halo: Reach that worked and they bettered them. (The game style that I particularly enjoy is Regicide).

A good game-- it was everything we needed it to be and more than we expected it to be.
