    So so so much better video game than Cyberpunk2077. 343 shows what real talent looks like.

    Best shooter of 2021!

    Campaign is nice, million times better than Halo 5. Open World could use more variety, hopefully in dlc, but it's still solid. Soundtrack is amazing, but that was expected. I like how Campaign somehow manages to have vibes from Halo 1, Halo 3 and Halo 4. Amazing voice acting from whole cast, but, particularly from new Cortana (Weapon). Boss fights have never been

Boss fights have never been strong point of Halo, but Infinite pretty much fixes that problem. Multiplayer is great, but needs lots of improvements. Overall, it's easily best shooter of 2021, that also has solid story.

    Solid graphics, amazing soundtrack, perfect voice acting. Going semi-open world was right choice and hopefully DLC's expand on that idea with different looking locations. Story was miles better than Halo 5, reminded me combination of Halo 3 and Halo 4. Multiplayer needs lots of work, but even then, it's easily best shooter of 2021. Well Done 343.

    Very good game as expected, i would advise ignoring this relatively mediocre user score, because bunch of trolls and sony losers are giving it low scores, because they have nothing to play this December. How sad. lol. Anyway great story, fun gameplay, more of this please.

    If this game was made by Naughty Dog, story would be horrible, Weapon would kill Master Chief in first hour or so and this big bad guy would win. Thankfully it's made by 343 and story and characters are great, beautiful graphics, amazing soundtrack and fun gameplay!

    Halo Infinite proves why 343 was perfect company to take over Halo! They wrote beautiful story for Halo 4 and while Halo 5 was bad (Every company makes mistakes), they also wrote beautiful story for Halo Infinite! But now gameplay is also fun, going open world was great idea, hopefully they expand on that idea with next Halo games or DLC's.

    There's a lot of new weapons in this game, as well as like half of the classics. They're all so fun to use and none of them (besides the plasma pistol) feel like a "low tier" weapon. I am constantly cycling through the plethora of guns you come across. Although this game is apparently very CPU heavy and there is some weird frame pacing sometimes, the graphics are amazing in my opinion.There's a lot of new weapons in this game, as well as like half of the classics.

Although this game is apparently very CPU heavy and there is some weird frame pacing sometimes, the graphics are amazing in my opinion. Even at mostly low settings, it still looks very clean and the art direction is so much better than Halo 4 or 5. Halo Infinite definitely isn't a classic Bungie Halo, but I think 343 finally figured out what made a Halo game a Halo game, and they grew on that and made it their own. I really like it. Expand

    This game is going to be Legendary, because it's one of the first steps showing how powerful and great Xbox is. I bet 360 era will come again in 2022-2027, because not only Halo, Xbox also has Elder Scrolls and much more! PS5 truly dropped the ball this December. You are not giving anything to your fans to play in Christmas time? Damn, that's just sad.

    I haven't played any halo, and I've only touched the universe through movies and streams. And even in this case, I liked the game. The world is beautiful, the feeling of the game is pleasant, Grunt is wonderful. I like the way the world tells a story and shows the same Marines not as food. But there are drawbacks, and I can understand some people who didn't like it. Yes, the gameplay canI haven't played any halo, and I've only touched the universe through movies and streams.

I like the way the world tells a story and shows the same Marines not as food. But there are drawbacks, and I can understand some people who didn't like it. Yes, the gameplay can be too measured for fans of battlefield or even more so DOOM. And the world does not stimulate his research. After the dreary battlefield 2042 and something from Activision, I entered the game with a little skepticism, and maybe it played on my attitude to the game.
    And seeing the powerful review bombing from fans of Battlefield and CoD, and in Russia from fans of Salo Logvinov, it makes me laugh. Fortunately, I play games, not numbers on metacritic.

    This Game has ruined Halo for me...

    Because the gameplay is so damn good that I can't play halo "normally" again.
    Sure there are some optimization issues, poor MTX practices, but its definitely worth a try

    Один из лучших шутеров 2021 года . Огромный открытый мир , неплохая графика , шикарный геймплей . Совсем недавно скачал игру с торрента и был приятно удивлён . Не слушайте фанатиков сони , они хейтят игру только из-за того что завидуют.Один из лучших шутеров 2021 года . Огромный открытый мир , неплохая графика , шикарный геймплей .

    I decided to play this game because the Sony fanboys review bombing it made me think it must be good. Thank you Sony fans! This game was amazing and I might not have played it if you guys didn't hype it up so much with all of your 0 star reviews!

    This game is just perfect for both old halo fan and the newcomers like me where this is my first halo game ever. The campaign can be played in different ways like any other open world game either speedrun or completion and the f2p multiplayer with decent game modes and more coming (because that’s what 343 said in the internet) can benefit everyone who can’t afford any game atm but gamepassThis game is just perfect for both old halo fan and the newcomers like me where this is my first halo game ever.

For optimisation I felt that when using keyboard there is a weird stutter but my frame barely move or goes down but with controller it felt smooth even though I got low frames in the campaign but oh well what do I care. Overall this is a great game and recommend for everyone to give it a try with gamepass so you can get the campaign in very cheap obviously. Expand

    Gotta love these fake user reviews. This game is honestly amazing. They finally managed to make a halo game feel modernized without taking away what makes it so great. Personally, Its the best game i have played this year.

    Completed the campaign completely, got crazy fun, an open world, not big and not small, but one that you liked exactly, the weapon is good, and the plot is not bad

    This game basically contains the classic Halo mechanics but in a more expanded world. The level design is not the best in the franchise but it is satisfactory.

    Nearly perfect. I don’t know what more you could want out of a modern Halo release. You can feel the love and care poured into every pixel and sound effect.

    More complex than the most of arena shooters but very intuitive. A harmonical growth of a genre.

    Halo Infinite is the best shooter of 2021. With much anticipation from the fans, 343 Industries brought a great multiplayer experience and a story as a love letter to the Halo series. With some bold innovations, the game pulls all the best from previous iterations and makes it into one of the best FPS games in recent history.

    Halo Infinite was supposed to become a flagship title for “the most powerful console in the world,” but in reality we got an interlude of a story devoid of epic set pieces, a template for something greater that may or may not arrive in the future, an empty “open world” punctuated with interior design circa early 2000s. If not for the awesome shootouts, Master Chief should have been jettisoned back into space.

    The new Halo game is far from flawless. There’s no co-op, even though there should be, and there’s a boring open world, even though there shouldn’t. The multiplayer feels unfinished as well. Still, at its core, it’s a solid story-driven shooter with a more-than-acceptable Cortana replacement.
