    The sequel to Halo 3 everyone was waiting for. Best gameplay ever in a FPS alongside DOOM Eternal. Soundtrack and art direction are best in class. 343 finally nailed it. Halo is back.

    I really don’t understand the hate. If you don’t want to pay for cosmetics, then don’t pay for them. It’s not like the things you pay for change the game. It’s the best free to play game I’ve seen. No dumb characters or guns to buy. The campaign is a ton of fun. They really nailed the open world feel.

    The multiplayer is exactly how I remember halo from my childhood.

    But there are a few issues with the game that can be easily fixed. First the battle pass needs to be improved quite a bit as the rewards are a bit lacking and for me at least there's only a couple of things in the battle pass I actually want. The second issue is why is there no game mode playlists in this game. Sometimes I just want to play slayer but can't as there's no just slayer game mode.

    I know why this is a big issue for some but for me I don't mind it to much as I like playing the objective game modes.

    I would recommend that that you give this a try as the multiplayer is free to play.

While wandering around was fun, the game didn't really get to me hooked until I had continued the campaign missions. The narrative took a slow but steady drawing of interest that eventually made me forget about the open world content. I went from playing a mission after I explored to going from mission to mission, unable to wait for the next story beat. The combination of great gameplay, and intriguing story had me enjoy every second of this game I have played. Even after I finished the campaign missions, I played for hours and hours on end. I couldn't have asked for a better Halo game. I just want to say thank you, 343, for giving us a campaign that has me excited for whatever you have planned next.… Expand

    Quiero ser muy sincero, desde el desastre con Halo 5 no sabía si el estudio de 343 nos tomarían en serio aunque no quiero hablar por todos, pero tras más de 100 horas jugadas, 80 de multijugador y más de 20 en campaña, digo que es la mejor que han realizado, no me sentía tan emocionado jugando una entrega desde el 2007 con Halo 3 que nos dio Bungie.

    A nivel argumental es interesante, te atrapa, te mantiene al tanto de sus detalles y te deja con dudas, pero esas mismas te las responde con forme vas avanzando, puede tener sus errores sobre todo para los nuevos o los que nuca jugaron Halo Wars 2 respecto a los Desterrados en su introducción, aún así es hermoso como maneja la nueva trama que tiene Master Chief con Weapon como la relación que tienen con Cortana y él mismo sabe lo que es. Incluso por primera vez que te dejen a libertad moverte por cierta zona de Zeta Halo sin importar que completes objetivos secundarios mientras tienes las misiones principales de por medio es sublime, no se siente como un Far Cry donde a veces estabas obligado a completar ciertas misiones secundarias para seguir con la trama principal, incluso poder seguir jugando tras completar la historia para ver las hermosas vistas, conseguir registros de voz, núcleos Spartan o dar por finalizado todo lo pendiente, me parece un nuevo método ingenioso y muy bien elaborado para disfrutar el juego por más horas fuera del Multijugador.

    A nivel muy personal y nostálgico puedo decir que es hermoso no tiene comparación con entregas posteriores de 343, lo disfrutas, te diviertes, tienes toda una gama de métodos para atacar enemigos desde patrullas, misiones secundarias y las partes de las misiones principales, te la pasas genial jugando y se siente como para volver a jugarlo desde 0 pero con mayor dificultad con o sin cráneos.

    A nivel técnico me sorprendió bastante y mucho, no lo digo porque pueda estar roto o desbalanceado con algunas armas o tenga errores ya que en mi caso sólo una vez dejo de funcionar y se cerro, pero tan sólo en Steam en descarga tenga una valoración de 16 GB y descomprimido 30 GB sin el multijugador, me llamo la atención con creces, ya que son 20 o más de esas 20 horas de juego incluyendo todo por explorar, el nivel de detalle que maneja es como para quedarse a observar los paisajes de Zeta Halo y escuchar su ambientación, el ver como pasan las 24 horas desde el anochecer hasta el amanecer es increíble, por ello siento que lograron su cometido de superar mis expectativas con un basto mapa con físicas, ambientación y belleza en tan solo 16-30 Gb.

    Con esto quiero finalizar y decir que es completamente sublime, bello, hermoso e incomparable con Halo 4 y 5, hasta la fecha mi Halo favorito a la par de Halo 3.    … Expand

    Before I start talking, I'd like to point out that I'm definitely more of a campaign person so my review may be a little biased in favour of Infinite.

I would also like to point out that YES, the multiplayer is content dry and the progression is easily the worst to have ever existed in the history of video games, and some of the levels have the classic three path layout such as "Live Fire" or "Streets". but some of the maps are very unique and play really well, like "Behemoth" or "Fragmentation" (which in my opinion is on track to being an S tier BTB map in the entire Halo Franchise). On top of that the gunplay really sticks out and you can almost always rack up a kill with just about anything (except maybe the disruptor, rabager, and plasma pistol, more on that in a minute). The multiplayer is really what stops Infinite from having a solid 10 in my opinion because the campaign almost entirely makes up for it. Ok let's get started:

    I. FRICKIN. LOVE. HALO INFINITE
    I cannot TELL YOU how much I love this game; It's easily my favorite in the entire Halo series. The gameplay is fun and dynamic, the enemies are smart and cunning, the soundtrack is just god tier, and the story easily outplays Halo 2's in my opinion. Yes, I said it.
    Ok first thing: gameplay
    Halo Infinite's gameplay rivals Combat Evolved's. An OVERWHELMING majority of the weapons in this game are viable and fun to shoot. The only exceptions I can think of are the disruptor, ravager (which way underpowered and needs a buff), the plasma pistol, and the spike grenade which really just serves the purpose of getting enemies to leave their cover for you to shoot. Everything else can be very nicely used to quickly and efficiently kill your enemies. Each enemy has its own purpose and interacts nicely with other classes. For example:
    A shootout with 2 grunts, an elite, and a brute is gonna play SO MUCH DIFFERENTLY with 2 hunter, a jackal and a skimmer. All enemies have their own tactics and plans of attack and they can actually ADAPT depending on the situation. You will almost NEVER find an enemy just standing out in the open not moving and shooting you like a turret, unlike in CoD where all the enemies are just brain dead.
    The level design is just so awesome, I've found so many neat little areas that could be used as a multiplayer map or that I would just LOVE to make something out of in Forge when that releases.
    The soundtrack is also *really good* and adapts to what's going on. For example, if I'm out exploring or something, the music starts playing this adventurous theme kinda like "Perilous Journey" or "A walk in the woods" from CE (note that I said "kind of" not "exactly", I've yet to encounter these two music pieces in the game but I tend to hear stuff that remind of those music pieces). But then when I encounter a patrol or start a raid on an FOB, the music turns fast-paced and upbeat, like the main Halo theme.
    I won't talk about talk about story because there are already like a zillion posts here that say the same thing: "its awesome, compelling and relatable characters, very attaching and immersive" (which is all true in my opinion).
    Now I just want to say 3 things that bother me about the campaign, and it's very minor and can quickly be fixed by 343, I think. Idk Im not a game dev i have no clue how easy/hard it is to implement these:

    1. level design isn't great in the linear levels. It's fun but it does feel to some degree like sections are copied and pasted much like assault on the control room from CE.

    2. There is a lack of variety in the environments. The only ones there are pacific north west, fourunner and banished. While they all look awesome, it would have been better to have at least some biome variety like snow, desert, swamp etc.

    3rd You never really get into a massive large scale vehicular battle like you did in halo 3 and I do miss that.

    Ok thanks for coming to my Ted Talk, bye have fun playing Infinite!    … Expand

    After what feels like a lifetime, Halo is back, and it's better than it's ever been. The addition of the grappling hook and coil throwing alone have turned the campaign into something completely different, and much better.

    The equipment in this entry is like H3 and Reach combined to make a perfect blend for the Halo style of play, bringing down the unlimited use of Reach to a 3ish use as opposed to 1 use in H3.
    The sprint speed has been properly reduced so as not to break the map interplay with weapons and equipment spawning on the map that other FPS titles don't have and don't have to balance movement speed against. Clamor isn't like the classic titles that didn't expressly need it, but it clamors at a higher height than crouch jumping. It doesn't replace the usefulness of the more speedy crouch jump, but it does replace grenade hopping by finally putting a speed cost rather than the cost of your shields as opposed to grenade hopping from classic Halo titles.
    The weapons are far more varied than previous 343i titles like H4 and H5, bringing the series back to its roots as a game with a wholly unique weapons sandbox. Every weapons matters and can be mastered, unlike other titles that focus on bombarding you with dozens of the same weapon with slightly different stats. Some fire projectiles that bounce around corners, or seeker rounds, or EMP to take down vehicles and melt enemy shields faster. The sandbox is stronger in Infinite than some of the classic titles.

    When playing the campaign you'll notice the story is much better than that of H5, and actually comes near to the original trilogy in quality. It does lack that classic military vibe, as you're once again not working as part of a military but as a super hero as 343i is prone to prefer to produce (for some reason). The game's identity is a little off due to this, but the campaign as a whole is still in the ballpark of the original trilogy as opposed to the **** show of H5.

    But if you think my criticisms deserves a 9/10, this is where Infinite's bonus strength lies. The Forge mode in Infinite is unlike anything we've seen in Halo before, rivalling StarCraft 2's editor or Roblox in freedom to create, but delivers that in a much nicer looking and better controlled FPS engine. It is very possible to make adventure maps right now, though you'll lack players unless you make it multiplayer. Campaign AI is coming, though, currently the main new feature in development by the forge team at 343i. The game has been out almost 2 years now, and the campaign AI is likely not coming for another 6 months to a year, maybe even more if further difficulties arise, but when it gets added Forge creators will be supplying the game with fresh new campaigns on a weekly basis. Takes about a month to 2 months to make a map, but with a strong forge community you're going to see the strongest support for campaign experiences in Halo history, far outstripping Spartan Ops from H4.

    A Custom Games Browser is in the game now where you can host your own match with forge or official maps and custom or official modes. You can set your lobby to "Open" which will add your custom game to the browser for others to find.

    Anyway, don't believe the bad reviews. There can be some server issues from time to time which can bring frustrations, but if you want to play the best new Halo game since 2007, look no further. The design is what shines, even if the technicalities of netcode are somewhat lacking. On that front, though, 343i has eliminated 90% of the network issues since launch. They're all a thing of the past including melee blanks, weapon firing blanks, vehicle desyncs, banshee coffins, BTB not being able to start a match at all, crashes, random disconnects, etc. etc. It's almost all been solved, and they're pushing to solve what little is left right now.    … Expand

    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.
