Halo just puts a thin sci-fi sheen on American military propaganda. It's more Starship Troopers the book than the movie. If there's any satire or criticism, it's extra textual. The games project oorah marines mythologizing into space. It's the Star Trek problem of "isn't this Earth alliance really just a stand-in for the US" but militaristic. And don't get me started on the Covenant.I'm not super interested in defending the honor of Halo and its political themes, but Call Of Duty is regularly used as recruitment propaganda for the US military. So I think I gotta hand it to COD there.
Saying it's worse than COD is hyperbolic, but I think if you scratch the surface, Halo is also military propaganda.
