I don't play multiplayer much anymore, so this might be a hot take but... Halo peaked with Combat Evolved in single player at least.

It was an extremely well made sci-fi blockbuster for its time that revolutionized console FPS. Halo 2 tried to say more than it could about religion, struggled to balance its duel protagonists, and was unfinished. Halo 3 straight up dropped that theme and the Arbiter (the more interesting character) in general for pretty dumb bombast. ODST was alright. Reach was the best since 1. Halo 4 was schlock that required extended media to fully understand. I haven't played the other two, admittedly.

As much as I like lots of the content, gcj is lib af. They counter jerk so hard that they often fall into defending AAA publishers and giant billion dollar companies like Epic
