READ THIS! I've altered the title and thumbnail of the video to more accurately represent the content of the video. I realize now the implications of the previous thumbnail/title were too one-sided and didn't represent the video well. So I changed it!

No one gonna talk about how cortana gets even more thicc every game
-
Player: “Why does Master Chief’s armor look so much bigger and bulkier than his armor in Halo 3?” 343: “NANOMACHINES SON!”
-
Cortana’s death in this game legit tugged my heartstrings. I’ll give them that much credit. THEN HALO 5 EEFFFDD THAT UP.
-
The sad thing is the ammo problem in this game is an issue no matter what difficulty you choose
-
I'd say the biggest problem with Halo 4 is that Del Rio didn't give you a Magnum with barely any ammo and say "I don't keep it loaded son, you'll have to find ammo as you go!"
-
"The Master Chief's dead" Arbiter: "Were it so easy"
-
20:05 Halo 1 isn't the first time Chief got Cortana. Just the first time he put her in his suit. He and cortana already knew each other because Cortana says "So you did miss me" The Halo 4 cutscene is supposed to be the first time Chief ever met Cortana
-
"The online multiplayer evaporated in less than a year" History really does repeat itself.
-
Halo 6: Master Chief awakes to find out it was all just a dream and he is still floating in space on a ship "Cortana... Thank God"
-
“I thought you’d be taller” is a reference to that marine from CE that said the same thing. It did kinda fall flat, though.
-
Fighting enemies like hunters, drones, and the flood really make you feel like you're fighting aliens, and not just more well-armed humans
-
Not gonna lie, the last mission for me had some really solid musical scores. The music when you're in the Broadsword and then the following segment where you are blasting through waves of Prometheans to get to the Didact were made even more amazing due to the musical pieces. It actually made me a little emotional during my Solo Legendary run it was soo good. But I agree that a lot of the rest of the musical set pieces were pretty lack luster.
-
I love how Battlefield fans, CoD fans, and Halo fans all just want their franchises back to their former glory(EDIT: it looks like Halo won)
-
Wait, so... Nano bots “upgraded” John’s armor but they didn’t even try to repair the big ass scratch mark on his chest?...
-
I just finished Halo 4 there and I have to say I actually enjoyed it. It was a lot more linear but I did still enjoy the combat and storyline, but Halo CE will always be my all time favourite.
-
Halo 4 would’ve been amazing if they gave it another year, and add a couple more missions and fully flesh out the gameplay and level design.
-
As someone once said: “Halo 5 makes Halo 4 look like Halo 3 Edit: bruh moment
-
Theory: Cortana's avatar never changed in the first four games. We experience the games through Chief's eyes, and I believe he just got more and more thirsty as the years went on, hence Cortana looking more and more like a drink.
-
Captain Rio should have been more like major Silva from the novel Halo: The Flood. He hated the spartan program in general, yet put chief to work anyway, because he was the best soldier available. Rio could have been respectful of cheif, but after chief consistently goes slightly off mission, which he and Cortina do sometimes, he takes chief off the front of every mission.
