What we should have got was the sprawling multiplayer mode Warzone. It flits between teamfights and NPC boss scraps, with its most thrilling moments having the two parts layered on top of another, forcing three-way shootouts unlike anything else in the series.

Despite its successes, however, former Halo creative director Josh Holmes remembers Warzone as a compromise.
