HALO 4 REVIEWS

Players jumped in by the millions to finish the fight in Halo 3, back in 2007. And yet, like many a franchise before it, the one-time trilogy of Halo games finds itself with a new fourth sibling, years later.

This year, the old franchise—Halo first launched in 2001—found itself in new hands, no longer developed by Bungie but by 343 Studios. Fans wondered (and worried) if a new developer could keep waving the flag, carrying the torch, and so on. Reviewers now universally agree: indeed they can.
The most negative review of Halo 4 finds it too much like other Halo games, while the most glowing all praise its devotion to characters and a story that fans have spent over a decade learning to love.kotaku.com
