Try not to become so defensive over a game if someone isn't praising it. People will assume you're easily offended by something you do not agree with or by what someone said (AKA being butthurt; I don't like using this word as it might seem a bit harsh or rude when addressing something in a mannerly way, but many people will assume someone is if the conditions apply). This becomes especially evident when you target the person, and not the idea they put out. Remember that reviews don't dictate someone's personal experience.

The developers of COD are doing something right, they make enough changes per game to have it a different game but keep the core features so it is simple. I give them respect for that. TF2 is the game for cheap gamers, if you do not own any shooters, for the PC, you play TF2 instead.

your kidding right.... how about you pop in reach and get back to us...considering reach doesn't even run in 720p and halo 4 does.

Well i just finished the story and maybe it's just me but did this seem like the shortest Halo yet? I don't own reach and didn't finish ODST but this felt 5-6hrs tops.

What difficulty?
I've done around 3hrs on only the first 3 missions on legendary lol (around 1hr each so far)
So I would GUESS that it would be 8-10hrs play through on legendary for the game in total.

Not as hard as halo 2 - nothing beats that game on legendary. Both in difficulty and length.

I dont hate it because it's not supported on pc. Im saying it was overrated since the 1st halo. The only reason I mentioned playing it on pc is because when they did release the first two Hs on pc, they were optimised a little more. And with pc gaming, there is a big modding community. I don't hate or like a game based on platform. Im simply saying for people who only play consoles or werent playing pc games in late 90's early 2000s , halo was probably ground breaking. To the rest of us, it was nothing unusual.

Now that consoles have as much momentum and developer push, everyone is getting to have small taste of "good gaming". I happen to hate modern warfare series on pc, xbox, and ps3.
Yeah, I said I wasn't impressed with past Hs. But it has nothing to do with platform.
