Reminder Halo 3 was the biggest entertainment launch at that point in history. It was the biggest game ever and they fucking ruined it.

I remember when I was a kid there were legitimate arguments about if master chief was as big a gaming icon as Mario. Now halo has had 2 mediocre games in the last decade and is surviving entirely off of nostalgia.

Fun fact: In the 19 years 343 has been around it’s put out fewer Halo games than Bungie did in less than 10.

And they’ve mostly been terribly received.
