What's great about it: Multiplayer is awesome!
Great game, similar to the previous games in the Halo feel. However 314 Industries took the game alot further story wise than Bungie and also 314 has been supporting there multi-player more.

What's great about it: Core Halo gameplay, Best Graphics

The campaign is rewarding and excellent.

What's great about it: Halo
What's not so great: - not a kid game ... period -
Picked this up - haven't played a single version of Halo to date. Wow, this is a great story and out right shooter. Some games you can play with pre-teens - not this one. Just too much violence.

It's a good first attempt by 343 at its first real entry in the halo universe. Story is excellent, but the multiplayer options are starting to mirror call of duty which is a turnoff for me. The story is worth it though

What's great about it: Graphics and controls.
What's not so great: Story needs supplemental resources.
A different team, a different Halo. The game has superb controls, and a large sandbox of weapons to tackle the enemy. The story is advanced in a different direction, but elements are hidden. For everything to be understood a lot of outside material is needed. Cooperative play is offered and a full suite of multiplayer modes that constantly evolve.

What's great about it: Multiplayer is perfection
What's not so great: Boring story for single player.
If you have ever enjoyed playing a Halo game online then this is the one you need to own! Halo 4 is the best Online Multiplayer game you can get... The matchmaking is great and always puts in a competetive game, it does well to keep the hardcore expert gamers and the casual gamers in seperate games so you never feel like there is no chance for you to do well... The modes are great, level layouts are terrific and controls have been perfected!
the story mode was boring to me, but, personally, all halo games have boring singleplayer....
if you want to play a FPS online against friends and randoms, get halo 4!

What's great about it: It's Halo. 4 player coop campaign is fun.
What's not so great: Multiplayer gets stale.
Played all Halos. Pick them up at launch every time. Like the last few previous Halos, playing campaign mode w/ 4 players is a blast. Multiplayer is pretty good. Finally added a create a class option like COD. Love using the vehicles. Multiplayer got stale though. All my friends and family played this in the 1st month but then got bored. Not enough wow factor compared to 3 or Reach. Seemed people voted the same 2 maps over and over. If it's a map you don't like, you can't even leave the lobby like COD or BF. Not enough new weapons. Still annoying if the someone can have a shotgun or sniper rifle (from random pick up) and you don't. Still don't like the hud as your enemy always knows you're coming. That's why I play bigger maps since it doesn't really matter. Overall, still a great game whether campaign or multiplayer. Just got bored. Multiplayer is dying so I go back to Black Ops 2 where there's 250.000 people playing on weekends.

Great follow-up from Bungie's game series! 343 Studios knocks it out of the park. You don't need to add much to the tried-and-true first-person shooter formula of the other Halo games, but they manage to add some additional weapons and vehicles that add a dimension to the story mode and some extra challenge in the online multiplayer. Definitely play with a friend!

What's great about it: Great looking, fun action, multiplayer is a blast
What's not so great: Too short, campaign is somewhat of a retread
Having been a Halo fan since the days of Halo:CE, I had high expectations for Halo 4, and they were mostly met with flying colors. The game is absolutely gorgeous, and the campaign is fun and varied, but is very similar to previous entries in the series. The multiplayer alone is worth the price of admissions, with a new leveling system (similar to Call of Duty) that can keep you busy for months, if not years. Despite being too short, I had an absolute blast playing this game; it felt great to play as the Chief again!

What's great about it: Great campaign, Spartan Ops, fun multiplayer, amazing graphics
What's not so great: Campaign is short, no firefight, some might not approve of the changes
Halo 4 sees the return of Master Chief and Cortana as they face off against a new foe alongside old ones that threaten the fragile peace following the Human-Covenant War. Although the campaign is less than 6 hours (though arguably, Reach was only an hour longer), it is high quality and the relationship between the two characters seems more authentic and human than in the past.
Multiplayer introduces some Call of Duty-style changes, like loadouts and ordinance drops as you rack up points for kills, objectives and assists. Don't fret though - it still feels like Halo.
Spartan Ops is basically a second, co-op oriented campaign. While I missed Firefight at times - especially since you must be online to play it - there's no denying it offers a great value.
To conclude, the game is also one of the best looking and sounding on Xbox 360. It's worth checking out whether you're a fan or newcomer to the series.

What's great about it: Read Review
What's not so great: Read review
This game is pretty amazing and to prove it I will show you why this is the best Halo game ever made.
1.First the campaign is excellent, although its short the campaign has the best storyline in the Halo series so far. The levels are well made and the music is greatly composed and memorable.
You think the campaign makes it the best Halo ever, but it gets better from here.
2.Spartan Ops continues the story from where the campaign left off. Its like firefight but with added objectives and they are very fun especially with friends.
So the campaign and Spartan Ops make it a really good game but its not over yet.
3.Now for the best part the multiplayer, it is super fun. There are a lot of game types to choose from and they offer a new and improved ranking system that every time you level up you unlock something. Therefore the new ranking system is a welcome addition that replaces the credits system from Reach. All of this plus new things such as custom loadouts make the multiplayer the best part of the game.
Its official this is the best Halo game ever made.
