The minute the show runners said that they did not play or care about the game before a single episode even aired, I knew it was going to suck balls.

If you don't know or even care about the source material: you shouldn't have the rights to make anything about it.

If they didn't name it Halo, it would have been a good sci-fi show on it's own. But because I walked into it knowing enough about Halo lore (even though I didn't play all that much of it). The show sucked... It wasn't even close to living up to the game series.
