    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.    … Expand

    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 game was incredible first ever halo story that choked me up i couldn't be happier as a day one fan. Can improvements be made for sure no question but the heart and soul of halo is definitely present in this game if you haven't played this yet you owe to yourself to do so

    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    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.    … Expand

    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!

You get a first in class FPS in terms of quality and a remastered or reborn version of when Halo was living it's best life.

    Even though the game has trouble running on my Xbox one s, and doesn't look the greatest, I'm still having a blast, The multiplayer is fun and addictive, the campaign is a huge step up from Halo 5. This is Halo, 343 has finally done it. I highly suggest playing it.

    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.    … Expand

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.

    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]
