I will admit that.
In recent years Call of Duty has taken a dip in quality and I feel that the makers of the series are rushing to get them out every year so by doing the series is suffering badly for it. So I wanted to find a new game/series that would replace it. I was looking at many games and seen that Halo 4 was £25 which I thought that was a bargain considering the game was quite new. I did some research and found out that a new studio did the game but it was very well received by critics. I ordered it straight away.
Since after playing both the single-player and multi-player for a few hours now, I can now admit that Halo 4 is a game that you need to own.
I didn't know much of the story behind the Halo series so I whilst the game was installing onto my Xbox ( because everyone knows that installing a game onto an Xbox takes a while) I watched video explaining the backstory of halo. I found this useful and I will leave a link for anyone else who is in a similar position to me. [...]
Graphics & Sound.
Best looking and sounding game on Xbox I have played. I cannon believe I am playing this on an Xbox 360 at times it looks that good. The sound of the guns can be frightening at times which is a good thing, It makes me want to run away from people. HD is recommended completely.
Single-player.
I have only completed the first few missions on the single-player so I can't review the story in its full. But the story has pulled me in very well considering I haven't played any other Halo title. It revolves around Master Chief and his computerised companion Cortana. Cortana is slipping into rampancy which is basically condition that programmes like herself constructs after they’ve been in service more than seven years. That is all I can really say unfortunately at this time but it seems like a really good play and I am going to play it till the end definitely.
Multiplayer.
This I can most certainly comment on. This being my first online halo experience I was a little worried because I honestly thought I would struggle. I was wrong. Instead of being stricken with people camping or just trying too hard. I was greeted with a nice fair balanced game with a number of even weapons and new game types I have never seen before.
I have levelled up and went on killing sprees and I have been excited at playing the game. There hasn't been a moment when I have been annoyed at the game because I can understand why I am getting killed instead of call of duty when I am head butting my controller in frustration.
I love it so much and it pains me that I am writing this review because I am desperate to get back to it.
My only concern about the game is not the games fault but my own. I currently have friends that are Call of Duty players and I will feel quite lonely after a while without having someone to play with.
The mulit-player is so additive and fun I can't find this being an issue.
Overview.
I don't think I will being going another game anytime soon.
single-player is fantastic and the multi-player is great
I love it and can't recommend this anymore to anyone who has grown tired of the call of duty franchise.
10/10. 'Incredible'
This game is nothing short of fantastic. For one, Master Chief is finally back and is voice and one liners are as cool as ever. The biggest strength is the graphics, they are the best I've seen, the cut scenes as well are so realistic. No spoilers but the return of the omnipowerful Didact is really special. His voice is by far the coolest now. The campaign is a bit short but on Legendary it is quite long enough, trust me. It is VERY difficult. Multiplayer is mostly similar to Reach's multiplayer, there are of course the Promethean weapons to play with, some of them are really powerful and effective, one of them I can't remember it's name is almost as useless as the M21 rifle in Call of Duty 4. The ending is good because it leaves you with questions and it leads you onto a sequel because remember that Halo 4 is the first of the second Trilogy. So some of the weapons are ok, some are useless, the Campaign is a bit short and you really need to fully understand the entire series story before you play Halo 4, if you don't understan the full story you can easily be lost in the plot. You don't see much of the Didact which is a shame, and Legendary difficulty (unless you are a Halo master) is pushing the frustratingly difficult regions. But these downsides are massively out weighed by the incredible positives. The graphics, the continuing epic story, Master Chief's return, the introduction of the Prometheans, the outstandingly badass and awesomely cool and evil Didact and the improved sound effects make this game totally worth your money, considering Assassins Creed 3 and Black Ops 2 are both still more expensive than this, this game is a bargain on Amazon and I couldn't recommend this game more strongly.

J'y joue avec mon frère en coopération, et malgré que ça soit son premier jeu Halo auquel il a joué il arrive à raccrocher les wagons et à se prendre au jeu.
De mon côté, ayant connu Halo 1 sur PC et Halo 3 sur Xbox 360 je trouve que c'est le mieux réalisé de la série. Plus nerveux, avec des ennemis plus durs et plus intelligents, et avec des graphismes très impressionnants pour une machine aussi âgée que la 360. 343 Industries a repris le flambeau de Bungie avec succès, selon moi.
Pour ceux qui se poseraient la question de la langue du jeu : les menus et sous-titres sont bien en français.
Seules les voix sont en anglais, mais ça ne me dérange pas (peu de dialogues pendant les phases de jeu, bien bien moins que pour un GTA par exemple).
