I've always enjoyed storied franchises exploring other genres but it's not always a formula that works out. Spartan Assault is boring and inconsequential, making poor translation work of Halo's gameplay and concepts into a twin-stick shooter. The game's levels all blend together with similar objectives and environments all featuring passable gameplay. The need to go into cover and regenerate your shield slows the pace of the game when twin-stick shooters tend to feel more frenetically paced. There's nothing special about Spartan Assault.
