I realize the campaign was way too short, but I think it's better than some of y'all are giving it credit for. The storytelling done even in the abbreviated timeframe was really fantastic I thought. Especially what is going on with the Chief and Cortana (again, I won't spoil anything). The set pieces were pretty impressive and the immersion factor was great, from the inside-the-helmet PoV to all of the "interactive cut scene" elements (I don't know what the official term for those are). And let's not forget to mention that the in-game cutscenes and ESPECIALLY the CGI cutscenes were phenomenal looking.
I'm not saying we should overlook the fact the campaign was too short, but there are games out there that are longer that don't come close to the overall quality that Halo 4 put out. It was a short but very sweet ride IMO.

There have been some really good games this fall. Borderlands 2, AC3, Dishonored, and Forza Horizon are the ones I have picked up so far.
But a lot of games have started pushing back into the early part of next year to avoid juggernauts like Halo, CoD, and AC. Hard to sell games against titles like that.

Far Cry 2 was definitely awesome. It set a precedent for open world shooters on console.
Who here is getting BO2? I feel dirty, but that doesn't mean I want yo play alone. On PS3.
