One of the largest differences I noticed in Halo 4 from its Bungie predecessors was a heavier reliance on dialogue and quality of cutscenes. I'm not sure if Master Chief spoke as much through the first three Halos as he did in this one.
This brings us to Spartan Ops, 343's attempt at making Halo as dramatic as possible. The episodes, which are done as well as the cutscenes in the main campaign, show us a Requiem 6 months after the events of Halo 4. The Covenant are still active on the Forerunner planet, and you are a part of a Spartan team deployed to clean up the mess.
All of the missions are short; maybe 20 minutes if you take your time/die a lot on Heroic and all have different objectives that are story driven from the episodes. It's pretty cool stuff, and it's totally free if you have Halo 4. If you're looking to refresh your love for Halo with some friends or alone, go check out Spartan Ops.
