Colton and Brendon sit down to finally determine which Halo game is the best and which can go home and think about what it's done.
Also, stay tuned for an addendum at the end where we discuss the recently announced Halo Campaign Evolved. The transition between the main part and the addendum is so seamless, you likely won't even notice!
