Where did all these Microsoft fans come from?

Expect numbers to steadily grow for a year or so until things become less interesting. Peaking with Halo 5 release and slowly stagnating again for the next 4/5 Years.

Do you really think Halo will be as big as it used to be? Halo 4 knocked a lot of fans of the hype train (I was one of them), and 343 yet yet to prove that they can make a proper Halo (Halo 4 was the lowest rated Halo outside of the remake at 87%. The Remake, also 343, got an 82% on Metacritic)

I don't see much of a plot for Halo anymore, it's dragging on. It's not like Final Fantasy which is a different cast everyt time.

Now I take offense to that. As I am part of the lore fans, not the multiplayer bros fan group. The meta suffered because they rushed the MP, NOT the campaign

Halo 4 was by far at its best with the campaign story. It is the most emotional Halo story for one, which actually explores the relationship between Master Chief and Cortana. Master Chief finally gets back his sense of humanity with Cortanas death. The Forerunners are back from hiding, the political structure with all former Covenant races is in disarray, human rebellion in the colonies is resurging, and there is the inevitable return of the flood/precursors (all previous flood in games were "outbreaks" and not the actual impending invasion. Halo 4 ties in with the Forerunner trilogy novels and graphic novels.

You are either a MP fan of Halo, in which case you are excused. Otherwise, I hereby classify you as the many "fickle" fans who sorta like Halo but didn't actually get invested in it. Shame

I disagree, the game score suffered because of boring enemy types and weapons in the game. Literally the most commin enemy in the game is a dog, and all the for-runner weapons are clones of covanent/human weapons.

Halo 4 felt like a kids game with that villain. Back during Halo 1-3 Master Cheift was only a solder, the last of the elites, leading a desparate battle against the flood/covanent. Halo 4 feels like some lame villain, who was never even mentioned in Halo 1-3, has become some odd super threat.

Covanent classes were always in disarray, an Elite is a playable character in Halo 2 . Cortana became very emotional in Halo 4, they made her almost human, which was just really annoying.
