Played halo since the first game. Followed the game when it was originally being developed to be a rpg before it was changed to a fps. The show might not follow the storyline of the games, which it should but imo it's a badass show. First episode I was actually excited seeing the first attack and the Spartans showing up. Ignore the 1 star reviews and watch it. It's better than 90% of the movies that came out the last few years. If you don't have a hardon for the story being exactly in the same as the game, you'll like this show.
