One of my all-time favorite levels from any game. (Destiny)

EDIT: I agree it's a better game than Destiny, but Reach didn't have raids, and I've heard Bungie devs refer to Destiny 1 as Halo: CE, implying that it will mature like Halo did.

See, and that's where I hope they are wrong, in my opinion.

I think Halo was the best Halo game, but it didn't have XBL, so I normally put Halo 2 at the top of my list then. Assuming they all have XBL (and they do now on MCC, so I can rank this reasonably I think), Halo games have been on a steady decline since 2001, each one being worse than the last, with the exception of Halo 5, which I thought was better than Reach and Halo 4, on par with Halo 3.

However, the quality level of Halo games was so high, it's like Sgt. Pepper's versus Abbey Road, with a brief dip to Yellow Submarine/Halo 4. I understand why each person has his favorite Beatles record, and I understand why each person has his fave Halo game. If Destiny can continue Halo's track record, then I'm all for it, but I expect, considering the updates to Destiny so far, to see it in a slow decline, albeit with some ups and downs, from what I consider to be near perfection at launch. Doesn't matter. Will still play and buy as long as they're even similar.
