Halo 4

When 343 Industries got their paws on the beloved Halo series, fanboys shrieked in fear. But when the final product was unleashed, a collective sigh of relief escaped everyone’s lips. It wasn’t just good, Halo 4 was great. It’s the usual shooter you’ve come to adore with a few tweaks coupled with a story surrounding your AI pal Cortana that is simply engaging until the final cut scene. With a tight multiplayer experience attached, it’s hard to find many faults in Halo 4. — Andreas Hale
