Where did all these Microsoft fans come from?

I feel like Halo 3: ODST was the lowest rated Halo game and to me it should be as in my eyes it was the worst of the series.

ODST was a mess, but the sad thing is, it's not the lowest rated Halo. Halo CEA is 82%, ODST is 83%...

Honestly ODST felt like a DLC chapter for Halo 3. I think Ms pushed Bungie into making it a full game to make the lineup of games look fuller.

ODST wasn't a mess. The story was cool and it introduced Firefight IIRC. Why are you making it out like 80+% is horrible?

a) Scores are inflated, an 80% is really a B game nowadays, not an A game.

b) Halo games typically score well into the 90's, especially the first 2. While ODST was cool, and Firefight was awesome (but no online Firefight with people outside your friends list??), it's only a B game.

For reference:

97 - Halo
95 - Halo 2
94 - Halo 3
91 - Halo: Reach

87 - Halo 4
83 - Halo 3: ODST
82 - Halo CEA
82 - Halo Wars

In my opinion, I think the top 4 Halo's are amazing, and the others are nothing special. If I were to buy an XBO anytime soon, I'd only pay full price for a Halo if it was as good as the first 4, and I don't think 343 can do that.
