Okay so...

Halo is a really fun series. I'd recommend you watch some videos or try and get a cheap 360 + Halo: CEA and Reach, my two favourite Halo Games. It's storyline is basic...

A collection of aliens in an alliance called the Covenant want to wipe out Humanity. Their religion about the Forerunners is false because of our existence.

You play in most the games, as the Master Chief. A prototype supersoldier called a SPARTAN-II. As the original Combat Evolved box read on the back, "Bred for combat, trained to kill, master of any weapon, pilot of any vehicle." :P

Back to the point. You crash land on a Halo Ring and discover the Flood, a parasite that simulates and consumes ANY LIFE. You escape and destroy the Ring and the Flood on it. However there's still six more rings out there.

You discover another Halo Ring and forcefully cancel it's countdown to firing, which would've triggered the other Halos and purge the galaxy of life. This meant the Halos could only be manually fired from "the Ark."

At the Ark, you beat the Covenant, stop the Flood, but end up stranded on the Forward Unto Dawn frigate for, four years and 10 months. This is when Halo 4 takes place.

So. That's about it. Oh! And you have to stop the Prometheans and the Didact Forerunner in 4. Halo Reach actually takes events before the Halo games, during the fall of Reach, the fortress that was on Earth's doorstep.

Halo Wars is during the beginning of the war. After five years of heavy fighting just to reclaim Harvest... five long years.
