I'm excited for Halo 5 because Halo 4's campaign and story were great.I need to catch up on the EU though.

The Halo books are often very well done. Karen Traviss, while many didn't like her storylines, is actually a very respected author with much talent. Even the old books were done by authors who have been writing respected Sci-Fi literature for years. Dietz not being the least of them, right next to Zahn. Of course, if you're an ill-informed consumer, I can see how you might say The Bearenstein Bears novels are superior, I won't begrudge you that, even simple people need books that are on their level to enjoy. Most people read the lore because it is genuinely interesting not because Halo 4 is a broken game without it. Gamers are just looking for a reason to tear down the strange and new, Halo 4 was that game for the true-blue Halo fanboys. And now it will be Halo 5.I don't give a shit what you're led to believe. What word do you propose I use instead of "when?"
