That's what I was thinking too, the whole time I was reading it. It wouldn't make much sense for MLG to drop Halo 4 because it's too CoD-like and then go for CoD instead.

I'm a casual-intermediate player, so I don't have much interest in the pro scene and don't really follow it much. I just thought it was an interesting point because it seems like MLG has helped Halo multiplayer's longevity in the past. I recognize the differences in Halo 4 and can see where the pros would be upset, but I'm happy with the multiplayer in Halo 4. I liked Reach and Halo 3 as well, though, so it doesn't take much to please me.
