So anyway long story shortened, i've been a big gamer almost all my life. But I had despised the whole Halo franchise, mostly because all threwout highschool all i ever heard was people brotastic dumbasses who are just all about "oh yeah we had a 85.3 pack of beer and were playing Halo all night, it was awesome bro...". So for the longest time i thought halo was nothing more then just a space shooter that you go around and blow up shit, with little to no story line.

Then once all my other favorite games started failing on their newest outputs (the biggest of all being Resident Evil 6) i decided i needed a new game, when I saw some reviews and actual intelegent people talking about the game. And it sounded awesome, so with some encouragment i bought halo 4, for now strictly for the multiplayer because my brother really wanted me to get it so we could all play online.

My question to you guys is, should i try to play threw the other 3 main games? (and reach or ODST if they have story line required to understand stuff) Or is it to late and should i just read a wiki or watch a summery? Honestly just from the multiplayer I am loving this but playing threw 3-5 other games seems a bit ominus. and all my friends are no help because they are stuck in the Call of Duty brofest hole.
