And Halo 6 looks to be packed with an obscene amount of content. I'm getting pretty sick of these mopey threads talking about how shitty Halo 4 was supposed to be, how boring Halo 5 is (hint: if you're bored in Halo 5, you're a boring fucking person and there's no fixing that), and how supposedly bad Halo 6 will be.The irony is that most of these people now claiming Halo 5 is shallow can look fondly at their 200+ hours of shooting in a still-true technical benchmark with genre-defining mechanics. It's just silly. Halo 5 is, without debate, a ridiculously detailed, expansive, content-filled and organic game. There's a reason that the worst parts of the game are the scripted story pieces, and that's because the game absolutely succeeds at being multiplayer and Call of Duty-driven. I'm not even sure what the "depth of a puddle" is referring to. Surely it's not talking about the lore available in the game, or the hundreds of completely optional wiki pages, hundreds of entries followed by procedurally generated edits, or the thorough REQ system? Of course, the game isn't a character-driven vidya novella a la Half Life, but the series never claims to be such. It's a giant fucking multiplayer world with tons of stuff to do and tons of armor to unlock, and it kicks ass at it.
They're both shit.
The only good Halo game is Spartan Strike

You really can't deny that forge and custom games have come a really long way though. Just some examples:YouTubeYouTubeYouTubeYouTube
I don't care about Halo 4. It was garbage.
Halo 4 was good. Halo 5 is bad.
