    Honestly one of, if not the best Halo I've played. It has all the elements from the previous games and surpassed them! The vast open wonder of Halo CE, the character development from Halo 2, the epicness of Halo 3, the emotions and personal story of Halo 4, and the epic gameplay from Halo 5 and then some. Halo is freaking back, and I'm all for it.

    A true return to form. The next best campaign in the series since 2010 and phenomenal multiplayer. Can't wait to see how they expand it.

    Es un respiro de aire fresco para la franquicia, creo que han logrado un balance perfecto entre lo hecho con los primeros juegos de Bungie y la innovación de la saga del reclamador, en lo personal, estoy muy contento con el resultado.

    Es un gran juego, la campaña es muy entretenida y tiene buena historia, el multijugador ni se diga me tiene más viciado de lo que creía. Aun con todo esto no es un juego perfecto pero si es un gran avance para 343 industries y así seguir haciendo grandes juegos

    After playing Halo Infinite, (finished Campaign & about 80-90hrs on MP) I can say, without a doubt that it’s the best Halo ever made IMO, & it gets from me a 10 (I would've given it a 9.8 if allowed bc the campaign has some (not a lot) pop-in issues & the MP playlists aren't ideal.

But I think those are things they're already working on so a it gets a 10 from me. The gameplay is amazing and after I finished the game on legendary now I plan to play it again for collectibles on Heroic & I am actually looking forward to play a game I just finished a second time for collectibles which trust me isn't something I do at all except with games I love (mass effect trilogy comes to mind). The story is really good and the pacing is great. You just get lost doing everything and it is always fun. The multiplayer is incredible too, and they're about to put new (and better) playlists since that was the thing they needed to fix. Do yourself a favor and play this game, use gamepass if youre not sure about it but give it a try, it is worth it! Expand

    It is sad to see what has happened to the franchise, this game does not offer anything new, it has many frame rate problems, bad graphics, the campaign does not offer anything additional to what has been seen before, and worse to see many people applauding the smoke that their favorite company always do haha. They offer them an incomplete and bad cheesy game.

    This is what Halo in 2021 is supposed to be. 343 listened to their base and went back to the roots of what made Halo great.

Faced with backlash of Halo 4 and 5(mainly 5), this was their final straw to make things right. If they didn't, they would've lost their base forever. The multiplayer gameplay is absolutely phenomenal. The best it's ever been in Halo. The progression system needs ALOT of work, but that'll come in due time. 343 is doing a good job communicating to the community and making changes, which is great to see. I'd give the MP maybe a 7-8 currently, it would be a 10 if they went back to Reach's progression system. The Campaign though.... story wise, its great, not as good as Halo 1 or 2, but its the best halo campaign ive played in more than a decade. The open world works, I was skeptical at first, but with the implementation of the grapple hook and other abilities, it absolutely transformed what this campaign is and what it can be with some DLC's. Campaign is a 10/10, solely from a gameplay and enjoyment perspective. It's been a while to where I could actually have multiple playthroughs of a campaign, maybe since 2015 when The Witcher 3 came out. This came could potentially last years without losing much of the base if they pump out DLC's. Keep it up 343. Expand

    The gameplay is so refreshing and nostalgic at the same time. There are plenty of issues for 343 to iron out but the upcoming playlist update is a much needed step in that direction. Campaign is a blast!

    This is the best Halo yet, 4K 60 FPS is the QUALITY MODE, are you kidding me?

    Mechanics are great, enemies are improved. This game is a console seller. I think it was worth the wait.

    Some of the guns have changed a bit,but the gunplay feels great.The campaign became almost completely open-world,but this doesn't feel alien to the series.The formula is simply what CE started,but this game doesn't have the technological obstacle,like CE had.

Halo infinite es un excelente juego, Halo revivió con este juego después de los dos juegos pasados que en mi opinión dejaran mucho que desear, este Halo trae de vuelta el mismo sentimiento que sentí al jugar por primera vez el Halo CE, el apartado visual es hermoso, el gameplay esta muy pulido, la banda sonora es increíble, el sonido en general del juego es excelente, como suenan las armas los golpes las explosiones es un deleite para el oído, la historia y el desarrollo de los personajes es muy buena, me enamore de la nueva IA, creo que es un paso importantísimo para la saga de Halo y estoy muy contento por este nuevo juego.

    Un juego increíble. Su campaña es espectacular y el multiplayer me tiene enganchadísimo. Se siente fresco y a la vez se siente como siempre ha sido Halo. Me sentí un niño de nuevo jugando al primer Halo en PC. Emocionante y desborda calidad. Recomendadísimo.

    Feels like Halo is going in a great direction. Seems like they’ve built a promising platform that will expand well over time and the gameplay has never been better for a halo game.

    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]
