Every single game save for ODST and Halo Wars had Spartans as a main character and you could even argue that Halo Wars did have ones as main characters so only one Halo game has had nothing to do with Spartans. Every single book besides the forerunner trilogy has had a spartan as a main part of the story.
Now I don't mind Spartans, they're badass and awesome but they're all over the god damn place. Until halo 4 they're were never more than 30 or so operating at a time. (Ya, I know SIIIs but they usually got wiped out on suicide missions anyway)
The games always have always handled the marines and ODSTs very poorly because who needs help from them when you're a walking tank. All I'm asking for is a few games that have the focus on the battles fought by the Marines and ODSTs and even the Navy. We don't get much in the way of space battles because Spartans do their work on the ground for the most part.
