It's been a rough decade for the Halo franchise. After delivering on a near-perfect swansong with Halo Reach, Bungie handed the Halo reins over to 343 Industries, a fairly inexperienced but passionate studio that tried its very best to deliver a Halo sequel that fans wanted. While it had its issues, Halo 4 was a solid next step for the franchise, though the subsequently released Halo 5: Guardians felt like a major step back, and the most recent release, Halo Infinite feels like it's doing both at the same time.
