Мне понравился злодей как старый солдат, который уважает Чифа . Если подытожить ,то мне кажется что это эксперимент над исправлениями ошибок.Чую ,что будет вторая часть,где уже будет новый эпичный сюжет, возможно,добавят контент для открытого мира , и ещё надеюсь основные квесты будут проходит не только в коридорах да и в лесах,но и где нибудь ещё,ну мы же помним первую часть с снежными локации. Короче мне понравилось,как стараются сделать хало вновь великим… Expand

    Pros:
    +Amazing performances & great dialogue
    +Beautiful graphics & soundtrack
    +Great story that doesn't simply gloss over the previous title's narrative
    +New protagonists & villains were very interesting
    +The new character upgrades you unlock feel great
    +Combat is the best in the series
    +A.I. keeps you on your toes
    +Boss fights were for the most part challenging & fun
    +Weapons all feel great to use & have their own feel to them
    +Very polished experience

    Cons:
    -The side activities started to get a bit boring by the end
    -Lack of different environments
    -Lack of different types of side activities
    -No need to use the different upgrades besides the grappling hook
    -Vehicles felt a bit too weak
    -A few bosses used one to two shot weapons in tight corridors making the fights frustrating on higher difficulties

    Overall, Halo Infinite has a gameplay formula that feels the best the series has ever seen, complimented by a wonderful narrative that seeks to wrap up the more personal Master Chief and Cortana storyline that started back in Halo 4, all while waging war against the Banished, leading up to spectacular moments.
    It is, undoubtedly, worth picking up, specially if you've been following the series since the beginning.    … Expand

    Bom jogo de tiro, o melhor dentre os halos. Gráfico bonito, jogabilidade excelente (pra mim o diferencial), e uma história muito boa e bem contada. O defeito que eu encontrei foi a repetitividade de inimigos e cenários, de um jogo desse tamanho e importância eu esperava um pouco mais.

    Multiplayer is fun, fair and the pace is not too fast.

    Campaign is good and enemies are smart so it never get's boring. The map is awesome and not complicated to navigate in, even though it's large.

    Great game.

    Halo Infinite reinvigorates and innovates the franchise with a breathtaking, detailed open world, a variety of upgrades, with a ton of development and growth from Master Chief.

    As soon as I started playing, I couldn't help but smile. Halo was one of the first games I played on my first ever game console, the Xbox 360, back in 2013. Now, playing this, I couldn't help but think back on the good ole times. This is definitely fan service at its finest.

    GAMEPLAY
    The gameplay is action-packed, wild, fun, and innovative. I love running around hitting the enemy with the butt of my gun and firing every last shot into them, praying to God, I don't die or run out of ammo.
    The side-objectives consist of going in, blowing **** up, hitting button, and getting out. And this repeats. Another variant of side-objectives is the FOBs, kill all Banished, hit a button, your done. This also repeats. In other words, the side-objectives are repetitive, but can be fun. I just wish they would've switched it up a bit for every objective.

    NARRATIVE
    Master Chief gets a lot of growth as a character, and I'm proud to say that I care for the Chief.
    Atriox is a memorable name, but as a villain, his character sucks; he's not fleshed out enough, his motives are unclear, and I really couldn't tell you anything about him besides he sounds like a demon and looks like he's out of Planet of the Apes. Hopefully, in the next installment, his character can be saved, by giving us his backstory, his motives, and really expand on and go in-depth with his character, because we certainly don't see that here.
    The Weapon is a sweet and loveable replacement of Cortana. I actually enjoyed her more than Cortana, and I definitely want to see more of and see their relationship expand in the next installment.
    The Pilot shows nothing but emotion.. Him and Master Chief's friendship evolves throughout the game, and again, I'd love to see more of this and it be expanded upon in the next installment.
    We expand on the deletion of Cortana, why she was deleted, and it haunting Master Chief, and also causing him trust issues.
    All around, the story is alright. It's a little shallow in some areas than others, but other than that, that's about it.

    MULTIPLAYER
    The MP is very, very addictingly fun. It's action-packed, it's wild, it can get crazy, and YOU CAN **** TEABAG **** Though, it's lacking content; such as Forge and Co-Op. Also lacking on modes and maps, which I hope to see more of in the next content drop.

The only one I did was battlefield 2042 because it absolutely deserved the criticism. However, just like with the really bad I need to do reviews on games that are also really good and that's where Halo comes in. With the travestys for shooters this year in call of duty and battlefield, Halo stands alone as the only sucessful multiplayer shooter of this year. The multiplayer is fun, fast paced and well balanced, with new equipment and weapons that fit in perfectly. The campaign is awesome with 343's transition to a action rpg style campaign with an open world payed off big time. There's a ton of content to explore with a great story and good lore as well and I might argue its one of the best Halo campaigns to date. With the let downs that were Halo 4 and Halo 5 I wasn't sure if 343 would be able to get Halo back to the standard of the Bungie titles. 343, your third attempt was a success and Halo Infinite stands with the best Halo titles that were made. The game is a 9 because of minor issues like xp progression and a lack of playlists but im sure that will get fixed and added along the way. Halo Infinite is what a AAA title should be and it's free, obviously I recommend that anyone should play it.

    Edit: I had to come back and lower the score. After going through the campaign, the faluts of Halo Infinte come to light. Halo Infinte multiplayer runs out of content fast to keep you come back and playing 343 did fail in an area of this game and thats as a live service game that they promoted on being. The campaign is still a must play and I would still give the campaign a 9 out of 10. The multiplayer, however, I lower to a 6 out of 10, you will have some fun for a little while but then the content becomes dry and theres no reason to come back.    … Expand

It doesn't matter how much a Dev Team is communicating with its community or if the road map is 1,000% flawless.. when the internet has it out for you it's going to get you no matter what you do! So for whoever reads this just pick the game up and buy it or download it from Game pass it's your choice.. it's a good game, it's a great game and it has a long life of content ahead of it.. just don't pay attention to these toxic trolls out here, it's all about how the game makes you feel.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's simply the best Halo that you can play right now, the only serius problem it's the battlepass leveling (BUT 343 is working on it), the multiplayer feels really balanced since there's some "Nerfs" to the guns as the centinel beam (0 or almost 0 recoil in campaing but in multiplayer it got quite); The art of the game it's trully the Best of both sides, the classic art from Bungie and new one from 343 it's at it's point; Now the Campaign, it just got insane, the semi-open world was just something that brings back that halo 3 ODST but in a f*cking big scale that the game can handle, the history it's just great how gives you some lore that only had apeared in the books as well how the they developed Master Chief in this game it's good, he feels more human in this entry; also about the campaign the AI from enemies was great, I played it on normal BUT there's some points in the game when you feel that the Game its a challenge in random points and boss battles, as well the ending feels that it isnt enough I remind myself there will be story expansions for quite a time so it felt more like a cliffhanger to know more about how did Atriox die, who will lead the banished now and WHAT ITS SO DANGEROUS that made the flood look like a minor problem. So thats it almost a 10/10 (for me) where the only mistakes are some lack of content at launch and XP leveling, but it didn't take away all the fun and frenetic action the game it's capable to give, so give it a chance and enjoy the exploring the ring, but BEWARE THIS RING ISNT AS THE OTHERS...… Expand

    Fun gameplay, excellent graphics, good story, the ring is beautiful, AI are competent, the audio and sounds are wonderful. That's Halo Infinite. The only bad thing is the difficulty, only that. Really must play.
    If you don't like the story of this Halo, play the other ones in Halo: TMCC, I know you will love it.

    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]
