@carnivalshow You play Halo for the story and writing? LOL

@Legojake94 @MxAa BO2 has such a hilariously bad story, and the multiplayer isnt worth playing unless you just want to grind through the same 4 levels until your twitch gaming skills are honed to a razor edge. Both of what you say has merit, but also, the engine is only 7 years old. They havent updated it at all since COD4, the last good Call of Duty game. Why? Because it was fresh and not the same repackaged multiplayer and ridiculous story. The story of COD 4 was actually believeable somewhat compared to one guy just going through and killing thousands of people, then hiding behind a chest high wall to make sure that he can wipe the jam out of his eyes, because apparently the enemies didnt get the memo that they should use real bullets instead of little vials of jam... Anyways, in this Halo, if you didnt read any of the books or know any of the backstory, you wont get the full enjoyment out of a spectacular game.
