“Bungie has never really been a master of narrative detail, preferring to focus on the big picture.”– Tom Hoggins, reviewing Halo Reach.

If by “big picture”, he means their repetition of the ancient “good humans vs. evil aliens” storyline, then yes, that is true. But never mind a little thing like “narrative detail”; it’s a glowing review, and Hoggins apparently considers Reach to be a great game because… it’s just like all the other Halo games?
