@Halo, I didn't mind the CE story, 2 is aight, 3 is stretching it, Reach made sense and NO FRAKKING FLOOD (seriously, wasting six mags on the cloud of giant popcorn), and only a couple of BS moments.
I didn't have any problems with Reach's story. I quite enjoyed it. I agree about the Flood, too.
I think I've pinned down the reason (or a reason) fighting the Flood sucks. On Flood levels in Halo 1, there are exactly four enemies: Infection Forms, Carrier Forms, Human Combat Forms, and Elite Combat Forms. Halo 2 adds one more: Brute Combat Forms. Halo 3 adds Stalker, Tank, and Ranged forms to that, so by Halo 3 Flood levels have 8 enemies. On Covenant levels in Halo 3, you get Grunt Minors, Grunt Majors, Grunt Ultras, Grunt Heavies, Spec-Ops Grunts, Jackal Minors, Jackal Majors, Jackal Snipers, Elite Minors, Elite Majors, Elite Ultras, Elite Honor Guards, Spec-Ops Elites, Elite Zealots, Elite Ranger Minors, Elite Ranger Majors, Stealth Elites, Drones, Hunters, Brute Minors, Brute Majors, Brute Chieftains, various Jump Pack Brutes, Brute Stalkers, and Engineers. I'm sure I'm forgetting some. And there are vehicles as well: Ghosts, Wraiths, Banshees, Phantoms, Shadows and Specters (in Halo 2), Prowlers, Choppers, etc. There's vastly more variety and vastly more fun.
