I have a bit of an out of context question, but here it is: Why are any of you guys here? I respect your knowledge and your points on Halo's various plot holes and problems, but many of the commenters seem devoted to talking about how much [i]better[/i] 343i is compared to Bungie as far as storytelling goes. They constantly demean the original developers of the series with a disdain that makes me question why they bother playing Halo at all. If 343 is so much better, then that's your opinion. But you need to consider the fact, wether you are a Bungie-era-Halo hater or not, that Bungie created the series, and also created the groundwork for the story that 343 created. I realize I'm probably stepping on a few toes, but I would appreciate a comment on why this attitude is prevalent.
