    Probablemente el mejor juego de la saga, por fin 343 ha entendido lo que hizo especial a Halo desde sus principios, tal vez en el online flaquea en ciertos puntos pero nada que no se pueda resolver.
    Por fin regresó el ambiente místico y en cierto grado "santo" del anillo, el tono militar y de ficción muy bien balanceados, las mejoras del Jefe son de las mejores mecánicas que se pudieron
    Probablemente el mejor juego de la saga, por fin 343 ha entendido lo que hizo especial a Halo desde sus principios, tal vez en el online flaquea en ciertos puntos pero nada que no se pueda resolver.
    Por fin regresó el ambiente místico y en cierto grado "santo" del anillo, el tono militar y de ficción muy bien balanceados, las mejoras del Jefe son de las mejores mecánicas que se pudieron añadir, aunque el 90% del juego usas únicamente el gancho son una vuelta a lo que Halo 3 proponía, pero mejor implementado.
    El apartado gráfico es espectacular, incluso en consolas de pasada generación la calidad de las texturas y efectos es un logro técnico tener esa calidad en Xbox One fat y S, no quiero imaginar como se ve el juego en Series o PC.
    Si tengo una queja sería con el online, pero para mí lo más importante en Halo siempre ha sido el singleplayer, que ha sido magnífico en esta ocasión.

    I like when dev try new things, and they nailed it with the perfect combination of open world and linear storytelling. I have to say the metascore (according to me) seems a bit low when you compare to H4 and H5 metascore. But for each year in gaming, the harder it becomes to get a high metascore, I belive.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Me gusta mucho la campaña, las nuevas mecánicas y habilidades y los nuevos personajes, pero, no me gusta mucho la historia, ya que me parece que se repite con lo de halo 4, teníamos a un enemigo muy fuerte al que no sabíamos cómo derrotar y al final lo derrotamos desparandole un poco. Otro problema que tengo es con el doblaje al español de España, porque a veces los brotes tienen la voz muy aguda y de repente se les pone muy grave. Una cosa que me ha encantado es el jefe Maestro (John 117) y es que ahora es mucho más sentimental y hasta cariñoso con Fernando Esparza (Echo 216). Pero si te gusta la saga y jugaste los anteriores ( o simplemente este es tu primer halo) lo recomiendo perfectamente. Expand

    This is a review for the campaign of Halo Infinite.

    Pros:
    1. Fun from beginning to end
    2. Interacting with the sandbox in different vehicles and hook shot is very fun.
    3. Enemy interactions are also fun, with enemy AI being challenging yet fair.
    5. Level design is good, with each different base offering new ways to tackle the challenges ahead.
    6. Most bosses are fun to fight.
    7. By straying from the linearity of previous titles, you get to create your own memorable set pieces in every engagement, as the game can be very unpredictable and many challenges can be tackled in vastly different ways.

    Cons:
    1. Some bosses are repetitive and annoying, especially in harder difficulty settings. 2. The story could be better, leaving a lot of unanswered questions by the end after trying to build up some characters for weak pay off.
    3. There’s a lack of diverse biomes to explore and enemy variety.
    4. Side quests are also lacking in pay off in the narrative side. 5. FOBs are very repetitive. 6. Some weapon types leave a lot
    To be desired as far as their value vs some of the classic human weapon options. 7. Main antagonist is very lame with no real plan of action, and nowhere near being a good adversary for the master chief. Neutral:
    1. The new characters are hit or miss. Sometimes they’re fun and deliver good performances, and sometimes they’re annoying and deliver cringey dialogue. I think how much you enjoy them will be based on how immersed you are in the game and the lore.

    The game is a solid 8 / 10 to me, and I’m hoping we get dlc soon with new areas, new enemy types and addition to the plot that fixes its flaws in the main campaign. If you’re a fan of halo games or just like fps campaign games, definitely give this game a chance.

    P.S. the multiplayer is very fun and addicting, specially with friends, but the cosmetics suck a lot and the battle pass progression system (as of the time of this writing) are very bad, even after changes that give more xp every day.

    The disc don´t actually contain the game so it´s impossible to install offline.
    There's no REAL physical copy. There´s actually a digital copy with a physical download key and that's just unacceptable for single player game.

    Honestly I don’t understand what all these negative reviews are about, other than the semi slow start, it’s a great improvement in recent halo games. The enemy combat AI is great, and the sandbox is great! For the rest of the story I guess I’ll just have to play more but so far so good!

    When Bungie started this franchise, it felt like hit after hit and each Halo release was an event and was special. Then Bungie with their own way to start Destiny and since then, Halo just hasn't been the same. 343 struggled to match what Bungie had done so well for so many years and never really knocked it out of the park with a great halo game...until now. 343 has finally done it andWhen Bungie started this franchise, it felt like hit after hit and each Halo release was an event and was special. Then Bungie with their own way to start Destiny and since then, Halo just hasn't been the same. 343 struggled to match what Bungie had done so well for so many years and never really knocked it out of the park with a great halo game...until now. 343 has finally done it and proved that the 1 year delay was the right thing to do.

    I was in my early 20's when the first Halo launched. Playing Halo for the first time was magical and really took first-person shooters to another level. Halo Infinite creates that same feeling I had 20 years ago. I truly feel reconnected to the franchise again. Infinite gives you a new world to explore and exploration is a rewarding experience in this game. Going off the beaten path, you're sure to find easter eggs and random encounters while picking up collectibles along the way. Infinite takes the open-world experience and connects everything you do and everything you find to create a complete experience for the player. What I mean by that is that so many open-world games I've played in the past have repetitive tasks and side jobs to do in each region and often it becomes tedious and not very rewarding in the end. While there are many side tasks that are repetitive such as rescuing a group of marines, or destroying coms towers, finding audio logs, hunting high-value targets, etc. None of it feels tedious or overly repetitive. Every one of theses tasks rewards you for your efforts. Some of these tasks give you valuable information that adds color to the story, others give you upgrades to Master Chief's, weapon variants, mods to the gameplay, some unlock more vehicles or weapons you can deploy at one of the many bases in the game. Some give you cosmetic items to customize your spartan in multiplayer. Everything you do rewards you with something that will enhance your gameplay.

    This game does an amazing job of blending everything that was memorable about past halo experiences, while adding so many new things from gadgets, to vehicles to guns in an open-world setting that is so much fun to explore. My only gripe is that coop isn't available. I can already imagine how much fun it will be to team up with a friend or a group of friends and play through this open world together. It truly is a blast and anyone who wants an incredible halo experience should give this a look if you haven't already.

This is easily 343's best Halo campaign they've ever made. The grappling hook combined with the new open world map works perfectly together and adds a new dimension to gameplay that I didnt know Halo ever needed but works so well together. While the new open world map is fairly small and limited in what it can do, the amount of stuff in that map is quite large and completing the map is fun and never gets too repetitive. The story falls short though as its left with the task of finishing off the convoluted Halo 5 campaign but also acting as a reset point for the series as a whole. The game badly needed a recap cinematic or something though as I was completely lost as to what was initially happening in the opening cutscene. The ending is very hit or miss as the new main bad guy(s) are never really given enough time on screen to establish their motives for doing what they are doing. It's not terrible but really needed another couple of villain centric cutscenes to establish the threat. However, the more blatant issue is that the game released without single player co-op and the ability to replay missions. This is easily one of the biggest complaints I have with the entire game as it feels incomplete and with the earliest that the co-op will be released being next summer, that's inexcusable for a Halo game on launch. I'd still recommend it for anyone who may have been turned off by Halo 5 and the issues that game had, but know that the game isn't complete as is and wont be till next summer. Expand

    Creo que 343 le hizo un gran beneficio darle una nueva dirección a la franquicia y apostar en mecánicas de jugar un halo que no pensé algún día ver y no estuvo mal, obviamente no rediseño la rueda en términos de un videojuego por decirlo de una forma, y me gustaría ver más de todo esto en un futuro no muy lejano.

    Halo Infinite! Who has never heard of this cult series whose first opus was released on November 15, 2001 on the first Xbox of Microsoft?

Who has never heard of this cult series whose first opus was released on November 15, 2001 on the first Xbox of Microsoft? Its hero, the Spartan John-117 is actually cited among the greatest video game characters aka Master Chief. So when Halo Infinite was announced at the E3 2018, it's fair to say that the fans couldn't stand still! After a first failed gameplay presentation on July 23, 2020 at the Xbox Games Showcase (mostly because of the quality of graphics) 343 Industries announced the postponement of the game for 2021. Since then, the studio has been joined by others such as the Canadians from SkyBox Labs, the Californians from Sperasoft, and the Texas studio Certain Affinity, which is involved in the multiplayer part of the title. But let's stop talking about it, because it's time for the verdict on Halo Infinite! One thing is certain: Halo Infinite is off to a great start! The long introduction of the game (that is to say before you find yourself on the surface of the ring) is indeed quite intense and is full of action and epic scenes. Our first steps with the Major make our mouths water and also allow us to set the story, which takes place six months after the events of Halo 5. Right from the start, Master Chief is beaten (yes, you read that right!) to a pulp by a particularly strong Brute leader aboard the UNSC Infinity. The Major is blown into space and drifts for a while, until a Pelican piloted by a lost Infinity crew member picks up his signal and saves him. With only his courage, and the help of a new AI, 117 will go to the nearby Halo Zeta to defeat the Pariahs, a rebel faction already seen in Halo Wars. A mission that seems to hide another one since Cortana (the old AI that accompanied the Major during all his past adventures) seems to speak about her in different ways and seems to hold a rather important role in the story. And then what is this new threat that seems to surpass that of the parasite? Coming closer to the first opus and to the original vision of Bungie's Halo, this new episode is thought as a "new first Halo" according to the words of creative director Joseph Staten. And the least we can say is that this is really felt in game. The impression of being faced with a revisited Halo: Combat Evolved is strong, and the fans of the first hour will undoubtedly be over the moon! However, Halo Infinite does not forget that we are in 2021, because it brings with it a fluid gameplay and a new useful equipment: the grapple launcher. If during the first presentation we had doubts about the relevance of such an object in a Halo, we must admit that these doubts are swept away. Even better, the Spartan can hang on with this grappling hook almost anywhere, giving the adventure an exhilarating and welcome feeling of freedom in the series. Enjoying a handling at the limit of perfection, the player takes very easily in hand our hero and manages to quickly chain the moments of bravery, by catapulting himself for example in height to play the sniper or by catching explosive coils that he can send on enemies. A grappling hook can also be used to grab opponents to come and put a good shot between their teeth! The artificial intelligence is also very well worked out, with clever enemies who don't hesitate to go around you or to shoot an explosive coil near you! In short, we won't beat around the bush, the gameplay of Halo Infinite is a success and largely surpasses that of all the other episodes. With its map divided into three large areas, this Halo is an open-world game. In the field, the Major will have main and secondary mission objectives. However, don't expect a wide variety of secondary objectives. As in most open-world games, they are indeed quite classic and consist in capturing bases, saving allies, destroying towers or killing priority targets. However, the studio manages to make everything more dynamic and to integrate a new system that rewards the player for completing objectives: bravery points. The more points you have, the more powerful vehicles you can use in the bases, the better equipped marines you can count on and the more powerful weapons you can use. Wait, what are you still doing here? This game is the game we've all been waiting for check it out on gamepass or buy it if you are like me and have to catch 'em all like Pokemon! The only way you're going to be disappointed with this is if you never liked halo or are trying to find a reason to not enjoy yourself. Brilliant, biggest campaign to date by far! Expand

The open world is reminiscent of a Far Cry title, proving a mildly interesting distraction that stops being so rather quickly. The grappling hook, being pushed as the game's staple ability, is fun and satisfying to use, leading to some intense flanks and getaways that wouldn't be possible in previous titles. However, it seems as if the enemy AI doesn't quite know how to counter it effectively, enabling you to simply fly past large swaths of enemies with barely a scratch to show for it. Boss fights, which return from Halo 2, either seem too easy or punishingly hard, with 343 unable to find that golden balance. And of course, I can't forget to mention the egregious omission of co-op at launch, making players wait at least another half year before it will finally be patched in. Perhaps the promised future DLC stories will prove more engaging, but personally, I believe that the vanilla campaign is a rather mediocre experience overall, and not intriguing enough to warrant subsequent playthroughs, let alone the $60 USD asking price. If you feel obligated to play it, however, I'd say it is worth the $9.99 Game Pass asking price on your platform of choice.

    On the multiplayer side, things are a bit of a mess at the moment. While the return to boots-on-the-ground arena-focused gameplay is a welcome one, the initial release of content is shockingly sparce for a game that was in development for six years. Several playlists that were absent from the game at launch, such as Slayer and SWAT (now being referred to as "Tactical Slayer"), are set to be added tomorrow at the time of this review, but only after mass user outcry on social media and repeated botched communication from 343 Industries. Other issues, such as the horrific monetization practices, a very lackluster customization system, and lack of a primary progression system are significantly worse than any previous entry in the franchise and are unlikely to be fixed any sooner than a year or longer at the very least. Other systems, such as Theater and the UI as a whole, are very poorly implemented and confusing to navigate, with Theater frequently malfunctioning or being unable to play previous films entirely. Forge, introduced in 2007's Halo 3, is yet another mode that was cut from the game, and is being targeted for Q3 2022 at the earliest, which is approaching nearly an entire year after release. Once again, overall the entire experience feels half-baked and poorly planned despite the lengthy development period and undoubtedly large budget allotted by publisher Microsoft.

    I would not recommend Halo Infinite at this time, as it seems like a game that requires at least a year or two of patching to become a fully-featured product, much like DICE's Battlefront II some years prior. Unfortunately, it seems that 343 Industries is still incapable at providing a solid day one experience, even after a decade of working on the Halo franchise. Perhaps one day Halo Infinite will be worthy of the hundreds and even thousands of hours that have been put into its predecessors, but until that time comes, stay far away.

The story was emotional and really pays off for players who have played all of the games before this one because there are literally callbacks to EVERY Halo game; from easter eggs to pivotal plot points. You actually see what Guardians are capable of, and you get an explanation visually of what happened from Halo 5 to the beginning of Infinite, to where Infinite picks up 6 months after the beginning. Boss fights seem a little unfair, but they're beatable, and I played on normal difficulty, but it seemed harder than most other normal difficulties I've played. Probably a second normal playthrough I'll be able to tackle heroic difficulty. I do think that Halo Infinite falls for a few issues other open-world games fall for. Difficulty varies, and your fun factor will change from the direction you choose to attack locations. Also, some enemies feel too bullet-spongy. With the story, you might get a little lost at the beginning, but everything is explained in the last third of the story.

    On the multiplayer side, it's a mixed bag. Regarding gameplay, solid. Very solid, no issues. Weapons are a mixed bag. Most alien weapons are weak, excluding the sentinal beam, needler, skewer, and mauler. Don't use any other alien weapon. The plasma pistol was nerfed, and there are not enough variety of weapons. Wished there were so much more. Vehicles feel off. There more...unhandy than before. Instead of vehicles having weird physics being a feature, this is more of a problem. The maps are very good. Customization looks cool, but because of how the progression system works, you might as well not bother customizing your spartan without paying loads of money.

    The campaign is a must-play, and the multiplayer is something you might like. I like it, and I'm not much of a multiplayer guy.

    Кроме стрельбы, которая после destiny1 не удивляет ничем и не цепляет, в игре ничего интересного.

    Мир пустой, стерильный. Мобы конечно хорошо уворачиваются, стреляют и кидают гранаты, но на этом и всё. Зачистил аванпост, послушал по сюжету диалог (ничем не примечательный), дневник, и побрел дальше. Игра пока ничем не держит, чтоб не спать и играть дальше и дальше.

    Графика, еслиб не 60-120fps это хуже стартовых проектов прошлого поколения. Довольно средненький killzone shadowfall со старта ps4 выглядит лучше в разы.
    Как так на самой мощной консоли уже текущего поколения - хз. Удивительно.

    Игру пройду, но максимум 7 из 10, если и концовка будет как вся игра - то ещё пол балла можно смело снять.

    Игра ощущается как огрызок destiny1 без pve составляющей.

    Будто лет на 10 игра опоздала.

So to get a game that feels like it made for no reason than to please the player is a surprise and a treat.

Well the open world or semi open world is amazing.

Going to certain places for cool visual pleasing moment's. This open world levels are FUN as hell like seriously and massive Jesus Christ this game is BUILT for co-op which is my favorite feature about halo games since ce. Now the main missions are great. One of the first missions dear God the environment for me was breath taking bc I LOVE that kind of dark mysterious thunder type environments. Also the fact i could jump to any one of the platforms has made it my most immersed, and beautiful moment in history. It's even better than coming out the tunnel in ce when under cover of night starts playing its just so amazing.Well I can say some of the levels started to get repetitive and at moment's I found myself less exploring each room because it was the same thing, the combat and ce vibes mad me appreciate the repetitive levels from ce and memories so. Now gameplay, yeah just like all the youtubers who got early access said, this game has the best sandbox ever in a halo game. It is so much fun is practically hard to explain if you haven't played like Jesus. U played on legendary and I had to use all equipment but God it was so fun. Legendary is like halo 2 hard buts it's a little close especially in some areas. Some of these areas you seriously need co-op. Boss fights man soooooooo much fun. There is one boss fight that's just dumb easy. But man each boss was like built up to. It was one boss fights I feel like was just there to be there for filler but it was fun. One of the boss fights had this one music and mannnnn it is my favorite song in infinite like it was like a Arcadian type of halo mix and man it was so addicting, bc it fit the difficulty. Now all and all if this game had different biomes it would be my favorite halo ever. But sadly it doesn't and the world doesn't feel as refresh as say odst or halo ce. Amazing game tho and planning on spending alot of time into campaign alone. I was never a multiplayer guy I was always the campaign and always replayed the campaigns mire so coming from in my opinion a terrible infinite multiplayer, me as a campaign fan glad they did an outstanding job in the campaign. 343 has gave me joy in my trash life rn so I cannot thank them enough.

    The game is near perfect for a new halo instalment, the story leaves very little to be desired (with only a few small nitpicks) and the multiplayer gameplay/sandbox feel perfect. All this game needs now is some more content to keep it going and a progression/customisation overhaul but none of these things have hurt my experience by a reasonable margin thus far.

    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.
