Edited by TnkBeatsEvythng: 2/18/2013 6:09:32 AMHalo 4. (This is going to be long so you should give yourself a cookie or something if your read the entire thing) I played a ton out of Reach between forge, offline games (firefight, custom games) with my brother and sister, and I played the campaign to death. And a decent amount of multiplayer. But this was because I had more time to play it. Halo 4 I've played a lot of multiplayer, and I'm still "getting used to" the campaign missions (As in, know them backwards and forwards) but I really like it. I haven't played custom games or forge as much, but I simply haven't had as much time. In the campaign I felt I loved Reach when it first came out (of course) but Forge, while awesome, annoyed me at times with the little things, such as things not lining up *just* so, horrible shadows, and monotonous buildings. Halo 4's forge is nice, I just wish there was a forge world. I can't exactly compare the two too terribly much since I haven't had as much spare time as I did when Reach came out. I feel that while we've been waiting so long for Halo 4, I was simply excited for the fact that it was HALO 4. There weren't enough commercials I thought to get enough hype. We all knew Cortana was going crazy, [spoiler] but I didn't think 343 would kill Cortana/put her in limbo. [/spoiler] I think there could've been more hype there or something. I like Halo 4 multiplayer, I'm pretty satisfied with it and honestly can't find any complaints except there are better people than me ;) Reach drove me nuts with the armor lock, glitchy community maps. I think the graphics in 4 were amazing, reach...Ok, but not great. I find it funny that so many people were complaining about how terrible Reach was, and now everyone's saying that Reach is the best. I was disappointed in the playlist choices 343 made right off the bat, (No FFA or Swat??) I understand the crashes on Day one (Why I didn't try) but taking over a month to get File-Share up was a little long. The first half of Spartan Ops (The missions) felt very half done, and I was disappointed in that, but they're definitely getting better. They're really trying hard to appease the community with the weekly updates/playlist changes, which has been nice, and I appreciate that. It's also nice that the Challenges are actually worth a fair amount, sad that there are only 130 levels.With it being more COD like with the different "Perks" I don't really care, if everyone like's that, great. The "perks" are helpful if you choose to use them. Halo Reach's campaign was great...Not including Noble Team (I personally was driven crazy by them, but that's just me.) I thought it was great. Halo 4 campaign was great top, it was like a Halo came, minus the flood& Halos. Definitely weird that you didn't go on a Halo, but I thought the Campaign was still great. It just takes getting used to all the Forerunnerness about it. I really think Halo 4 is better. It just takes getting used to.
