    As a semi-open world game, the plot of this game successfully inherited Halo 5. The main line still maintains a very high level. As an innovation, the branch line part inevitably has some problems. Overall it is very good!

    Probably my favorite Halo campaign. I think they struck the perfect balance between open world and linear gameplay.

    Se siente la subida de calidad y a la vez como cierta nostalgia del estilo clásico, el mundo abierto se me hace estilo Farcry, mi única queja es la falta de cooperativo en la campaña, pero suponiendo lo agregan pronto no le bajó el punto por eso. El multijugador es adictivo

    really cool game, only problem is the optimization and some graphical bugs.

    I really liked this game! This is the first halo game that I really got into besides Halo CE but it will be a 8 because you need to add a way to select modes please

    I genuinely love the movement and feel of combat in this game. Add co-op and replayable missions and you’ve got a 10.

    I'm impressed by the AI which is really good. Graphics are nice without being awesome. But this game is boring, sad but true. Story isn't interessant, and as soon as you reach the open map, everything seems dull.

    Absolutely stunning game the delay was well worth the wait. I wasn't sure if I was going to like the change to an opened world but it was very well thought out!

    Haven't had this much fun playing an FPS in awhile. The story is stellar and the gunplay is on point. I can't stop playing. Halo is back!!!

    Halo is back as in it never has been before. Gameplay feels solid, fun, and innovative to the previous titles. Graphics also look amazing where I constantly want to grab screenshots. Performance is also top notch on the Series X.

    Halo is back as in it never has been before. Gameplay feels solid, fun, and innovative to the previous titles. Graphics also look amazing where I constantly want to grab screenshots. Performance is also top notch on the Series X.

    I'm only about 7 hours into the campaign and so far it far been a very enjoyable experience. Opening sequence is breathtaking and really sets the tone for the rest of the game. Open world experience alongside the grappleshot gives limitless opportunities to explore and feels like an extension of Halo 1 in the best ways possible.

    Multiplayer feels like a direct sequel to Halo 3 along side new equipment types that feel balanced. Ranked play can feel sweaty at times but I enjoy these games as my adrenaline spikes when in Battle Riffle duels. Quick play and Big team battle are also fun modes when not wanting to try so hard.

    Additional Wants
    - Different MP modes
    - Campaign Co-op
    - New MP maps
    - Forge

    I give it a 9 as the game sits right now. Once additional content comes out, I can see this game getting a solid 10/10 from me. Excited for the future of Halo!

    This is a really hard game to rate. I say that because I really love Halo. If you are only going to play this for the campaign then it is a 9.2/10. The gameplay mechanics is a 10/10. Enemy AI 10/10 along with friendly AI, the marines are actually really helpful in this game you can tell that 343 spent alot of time working on this AI.

The gameplay mechanics is a 10/10. Enemy AI 10/10 along with friendly AI, the marines are actually really helpful in this game you can tell that 343 spent alot of time working on this AI. The difficulty isnt all that balanced between various difficulties I would have to give it a 8/10. Do not play this game in Normal, just play in heroic, because the difference between the two isnt very much at all. The open world is really beautiful, but it gets a little repetative. The FOBs are alot of fun the first few times but, they get really repetative. They are basically all the same, that is really my only complaint. There are these other missions where you hunt down high value targets from the banished and they are AWESOME. Also i had loads of fun just finding skulls and spartan lockers all over the map. It is a beautiful world. The world as a whole is really cool. 9/10. The story itself is really good, but it feels like it is unfinished. To be completely honest it seems like it was the first game in the series instead of being the end of the reclaimer saga. Again this is the only thing i can complain about in terms of the story. This game dives into who master chief is. It really gives the players an idea of who he is in a way that no other halo has ever done. The stakes are high in this story. That being said I feel like it has earned a 9/10 for the story. There is alot to love about the story as a whole but when the game ends you are just left feeling like it ended too early. The multiplayer is where i feel like it falls a little too short. The multiplayer is ALOT of fun but without the ability to choose the game mode you play I feel like the highest score i can give that is a 8/10. I do realize they will fix the multiplayer in the coming days that is the only reason i gave it an 8. In its current state it is a 6 or a 7 only because of it lacking the ability to choose game modes. As much as i love halo I cant give this game a perfect score because there are some flaws but, overall this game is really good. It is very refreshing though because it is obvious 343 is finally figuring out how to make a halo game. My review for halo 4 (6) and halo 5 (4)can reflect how i have hated where this series was headed but now it is getting back on track.
    This game's campaign is a 9.2/10 but as a whole is an 8/10 because of the multiplayer but since the PLAYSTATION fanboys are bombing this game i will give it a 9 to balance the score.

    I finally finished the campaign. I loved it and the open world is beautiful. Played it on a 4k HDR tv and it amazed me how good it looks. Gameplay is flawless, love the hook!!!! I actually don't even use the vehicles, just the hook to travel around. The story is very emotional and not expected.

    This game has so much potential, its incredible to see. The gameplay is so solid, the campaign has me intrigued for the future of Halo, and most importantly, the issues the game has on the Multiplayer side have been addressed very quickly by 343i, and that really helps elevate this from a 9 to a 10 for me. I am excited for the future of Halo!

    Oh, and the music is lovely.

    Halo Infinite is a love letter from 343 to all Halo Fans. The story is so simple yet it manages to be so deep thanks to the lovable characters, mystery and the questions to resolve. The open world formula is nice and refreshing take on Halo, while the linear and classic Halo fashioned levels still remain.

This is the first time (in my opinion) a Halo game has ended with a good ending that gives so much potential for the next entry in the franchise. It fixes all the past mistakes 343 has done with their last games and gives us a new Halo universe in a much better place and a story we're all interested in learning more about. Expand

    Best Halo since Halo 3 / Reach! Finally! Amazing sound and graphics! Playing on my 77” G1 4K 120 FPS with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos! Amazing experience, can’t wait until the DLC drops and Co-op. Excited for what they are going to do with Halo next year(s)!

    Перед выходом игры посмотрел обзоры блогеров, и был очень сильно разочарован.
    Но проиграв часов 6
    Я понял что зря я так сильно расстроился
    Игра получилась отличная с отличной графикой и сюжетом который захватывает

    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]
