    Great remake. only reason i gave it a 9 was because after i bought it they released dlc for it that i felt should have been included. the disc also stopped working but i didnt include that in the rating because i have moved to buying everything digitally now and it is the first time that has happened to me on the pc or xbox.

    Really sad about this one, but I can't finish it because halfway through level 5 all textures disappear and the game cannot be finished.

    So far up to that point, this was a pretty solid 7 or even 8 / 10. Good graphics, pretty distinct style for new enemies - though I did not like the changes to some of the old enemies. The story is kinda "stuff happens out of nowhere" and it's not

    The story is kinda "stuff happens out of nowhere" and it's not been very good at explaining wtf is really going on and the main villain and their motivation - feels like I am missing something and this stuff can be found in some other media, perhaps a comic or a book, but you shouldn't have to scour what is an expanded universe source to understand what's going in a mainline entry in a videogame series...

    Sound is pretty good, some of the weapons and kills feel very impactful, the music was a bit in the background and not very noticeable, which is a shame. Halo, for the most part, has great music, and it was mostly missing here.

    Gameplay was really good though, I really liked how it was balanced mostly, though for some weapons, the ammo count is a bit too low I think. Overall, though, it was fun fighting the different enemies - both new and old. The vehicle sections were pretty good, though the god awful camera-steering controls remain.

    Anyways, as part of the MCC and on game pass, can recommend, but if this is the only game you are missing for whatever reason, I can't recommend buying it / buying the MCC because of it - due to the technical issue I encountered.

    343 Industries has managed to bring Halo: The Master Chief Collection to a stellar close with the release of Halo 4. Despite the campaign's storyline being a bit of a mess, the developer still managed to deliver an outstanding singleplayer experience that's worth a replay. Mix in esports-level multiplayer, and you have a recipe for an outstanding last stand.

    If this is your first time playing Halo 4, prepare for a treat. Gameplay remains identical to previous installments, but with some additions enhancing the experience. The story is also a big highlight. With this game, it's hard not to consider Master Chief and Cortana as gaming's greatest duo. Halo 4 caps off The Master Chief Collection on PC nearly perfectly.

    Halo 4 might be the black sheep of the family, but it's still a great game and an excellent way to send off The Master Chief Collection.
