    I can't comment on the multi player as I never played any halo multi player. For me it was only ever a single player game, and as such my score only reflects that aspect of the game.

    First off, I don't understand all the negatives for this game. Sure the graphics are not the best I've seen but they are certainly not the worst. They are perfectly adequate. The gameplay and story is where    I can't comment on the multi player as I never played any halo multi player. For me it was only ever a single player game, and as such my score only reflects that aspect of the game.

    First off, I don't understand all the negatives for this game. Sure the graphics are not the best I've seen but they are certainly not the worst. They are perfectly adequate. The gameplay and story is where its at for me and this game delivers in buckets. Sure the semi open world aspect is different and I'm not sure I like that idea as opposed to the standard halo 1 to 3 style of play, but it's OK and offers new play styles. Story was very good, if a little confusing at first, but I do miss the whole cortana and masterchief relationship that was a very big part of the previous halo games, and I hope this game and it's ending shows its heading back that way. I feel what let's down previous titles after halos 1 to 3 and reach, is the story got muddled, confusing, and introduced storylines and enemies people just couldn't gel with and the jump from 5 to infinite seemed disjointed, like how Hollywood attempts a reboot of a series and just kinda ignores what's happened and doesn't flesh out fully how we got here. It feels like it's turned a corner, and attempting to go back to its roots slowly rather than rebooting the entire series. And as much as I love masterchief and cortana I do feel they need a new direction. The problem is, as is the same with other games where we get stuck and attached to a small number of characters, how to make new stories when other characters were only background noise? Odst and reach did a great job with characters other than MC, with stories that made sense and kept to the lore well. It has lost some of its shine that made it so great and mysterious and a joy to explore, and has lost its way in the story but, like I said previously, it does seem to have turned a corner and underlined what's happened previously. I just hope the story can become great again. Infinite is not a perfect game, name one that is perfect, but it does feel and play better than 4 and 5 and the gunplay feels much better and more akin to halo of old. The storyline is good but not perfect, and the ai of the marines is lacking and borderline broken. And one fight in particular felt so confined and rediculously hard due to being trapped and not able to move to avoid being hit, it spoilt it and I contemplated quitting the game and not continuing. I've played and completed every halo game on the hardest setting and never felt cheated when I died. Infinite however, that one confined fight was too hard, and not due to any fault of the players fighting style but due to being to confined and able to killed off two hits and no room to even avoid being hit. That was just lazy gameplay and due to not being tested thoroughly, as no one having played that section could honestly say that was a good idea. But I digress. All in all, as a single player game, it's got a good story, good gunfights, and kept me entertained to the end, and kept me wanting more. Isn't that a sign of a good single player game? The only thing I wished for was local Co op, but it was not meant to be. Due in part to that God awful engine of theirs. Hopefully switching to unreal 5 will fix that for the next one. Play the game, you won't be disappointed with the single player.    … Expand

    The story, new characters, multiplayer maps and gameplay are all amazing, but the open world is just one grassy area and that's it. Besides that, this is the best Halo since Reach and would be even more amazing if 343 was actually not terrible enough to update the game.

    It’s a great story mode especially if you enjoyed the previous games especially with the little references they make about the old games games. I recommend playing on legendary to truly get a challenge. The multiplayer is fun but it needs more variety of game modes.

    This game is not perfect but it is very fun to play. The campaign was exceptional as well. The multiplayer system is a little flawed but at its core this game is great.

    Love this campaign. One of the best imo. I hope it gets its sequel that it deserves! Ultra smooth gameplay with the classic halo movement and gunplay.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The masterchief returns with a bang

    Halo infinite sees a somewhat return to form with halo,it's art style more classic than what we've seen from previous titles and set in an open world section of zeta halo

    Campaign wise it's an epic campaign with glorious set pieces and characters you'll love,and characters you'll want to remove from the board

    It follows the masterchief,a cortana clone (the weapon) and a lone pilot,as you fight the banished across a range of open world and enclosed spaces,the banished are a foe to be reckoned with led by the brute chieftain Escharum,you'll fight those with a reputation for killing Spartans and dispatch then as needed

    Weapon wise you have a range of classic and newer weapons,only problem is the lack of viable ground vehicles when traversing the ring

    It's multiplayer is a mixed bag,right now we're 4 seasons in and it's finally where it should have been at launch,up until now it has been rough

    It's forge I leagues ahead anything we've seen in previous halo games,with the ability to create some incredible maps that are that we would see from Devs themselves,many are also available in matchmaking right now to play including a range of classic halo maps,remade perfectly

    Games definitely worth playing and it's free for its MP and the campaign is available via Xbox Gamepass    … Expand

J'ai peut être très bien fait. J'avais peur de retrouver mon John 117 en piteux état ... Et bien ce Infinite est une agréable surprise et un plaisir de parcourir les vastes étendues du jeu . Plein de possibilités avec le grappin et toujours plaisant de retrouver le large panel d'armes et de véhicules que la série à construit. J'aime l'orientation prise et le challenge des rencontres avec les cibles et places fortes à libérer. Là où le bas blesse est que j'imagine que cette formule finira par devenir un peu lassante et le manque de variété de l'environnement ne va pas aider à diminuer cette redondance. Qu'importe l'essentiel est là et toujours aussi en forme . Et le multijoueur toujours aussi béton en contenus, modes des jeux , succès et récompenses à débloquer. De ce côté là je suis moins bon et je me fais encore bien défoncer. Donc voilà. J'apprécie et je continue ma petite campagne de ce Halo Infinite.… Expand

    If i were to rate my whole experience it would 6.5 out of 10, but the game in its current state is fantastic and those looking to try for the first time or return I would recommend fully. The online portion of the game is finally great. Single player is quite fun but I think the story is less compelling than the original trilogy.

    The console war has generated intense debate when it comes to exclusives. Halo Infinite has been no exception; from the day that the advances of the game were shown, only the bad began to be seen, to such an extent that it is cataloged as one of the worst games in the HALO franchise. The game is technically excellent, the playable dynamics are excellent.

    Never played it. 343i sucks ballz and killed the franchise. Great game though, such campaign, much story! Sony can't make shooters. Thank you papa Phil, 10/10.

    If the open-world concept had been better utilized and if the writers had added more interesting characters to the story, Infinite could have easily been one of the best Halo games ever. The shootouts are highly entertaining and the open world brings new tactical possibilities. The multiplayer is just as good, being slightly faster than before. [Issue#317]

    Halo is back to its best with Halo Infinite, tight controls, and seriously thirst-quenching gunplay that feels so intuitively satisfying. Traversal has been improved hugely by the addition of the grappleshot, allowing Master Chief to zip around at speed, as well as adding a unique element for multiplayer matches. A particular dampener has to be directed at the online multiplayer, which is riddled with cheaters, but, if they were to be removed then the multiplayer offers a solid free-to-play experience that is fast and frantic. Halo Infinite, alongside a number of other Xbox first-party titles is a great addition to Xbox Game Pass, and it is certainly a marquee game that warrants a subscription to the service.

    There’s not much to do in the open world, but thankfully, it doesn’t play a big role either. Infinite mostly sticks to what makes Halo great: first-person action. Smart level design, great mobility mechanics like grappling hook, and good AI make for some really memorable moments. [Issue#258, p.42]
