Blackwolfrunnin Halo is the new CoD. The developers are just like:
"alright team, how can we really please our new fans?"
"by offering them the same experience they get from Call of Duty of course! And that means multiplayer. And lots of it."
"Wait, what do we do about the campaign? We can't just leave it out! Not with those pesky OLD fans we have!"
"It's simple, we just cut as many corners as we can. 8 missions, 8 cut scenes, and a bunch of random dialogue added here and there. Not to mention that once we kill one of the 2 most important characters in the story, those story lovers will never come back!"
"Brilliant! Operation Halo4 aka Call of Halo ops fare is a go!"
.

As you can see, I'm very butthurt.


Agreed... as a die hard Halo fan I truly miss the old Halo. I only played Halo 4 less than a month and I am already putting it on the shelf.. Everything was great but the multiplayer, that is what kept me apart from this Halo. Hopefully 343 can step up in the next one and learn from their mistakes..
