Trash-tier game that ruined what was, up to that point, my favorite series of all time. Fucking garbage game that was more interested in chasing shitty CoD trends than improving Halo. Loadouts, reticle bloom, and armor abilities ruined Halo.

At least the single player campaign was good. But we all know you bought Halo for multiplayer, and Reach multiplayer was a drastic and embarrassing downgrade for absolutely no reason. And it straight-up destroyed Halo esports.

The game killed Halo. Bungie didn't even want to make it, and it showed. But they were forced to in order to get their independence from Microsoft (along with ODST). Bungie wanted Halo 3 to be the end of the franchise. But M$ refused to let them stop making their cash cow. So they basically just used it as practice for the game they really wanted to make (Destiny, with more extensive loadout customization and more extensive abilities).

I will never understand why so many people love the game that ruined one of the greatest franchises of all time.

Campaign was great
Forge at the time was great and allowed for tons of fun custom games

Yeah the basic multiplayer wasn't as good as the others but if you didn't care much about the arena stuff it was a blast IMO

Infinite seems to be striking a good balance between pleasing the esports crowd and the people that just wanna fuck around and have fun
