    Halo at its best… I don’t really do multiplayer because people don’t cooperate nowadays, but the campaign is probably one of the best… maybe 20 hours in, I’m a completionist so I’m taking my time… it really shines in the interior areas, make me feel as if I’m playing pg13 doom… the grappleshot changes the game and I plan to play this one for quite some time, can’t wait for co-op to beHalo at its best… I don’t really do multiplayer because people don’t cooperate nowadays, but the campaign is probably one of the best… maybe 20 hours in, I’m a completionist so I’m taking my time… it really shines in the interior areas, make me feel as if I’m playing pg13 doom… the grappleshot changes the game and I plan to play this one for quite some time, can’t wait for co-op to be added… what a launch, I’m thoroughly impressed… Expand

    En conclusión, no es un juego perfecto, tiene falencias, como falta de biomas y profundidad de gráficos ambientales, poco claro el objetivo del juego a nivel de mundo abierto, ya que puedes capturar puntos, salvar algunos compañeros en algunas misiones, pero no da una sensación de apoyo el salvarlos, sería ideal que si existe esa posibilidad, que te ayuden en cosas básicas, como conducir y tu disparar, etc.
    por otro lado, la historia es absorbente, es un juego corto pero que muestra mucha alma a nivel de desarrollo, logras empatizar con personajes, lo demás se deja para que lo jueguen.    … Expand

    Excelente juego. Gunplay divertidísimo. La adición del mundo semiabierto le da un aire a la IP y se siente muy bien.
    Gráficamente es genial y el apartado sonoro lo es aún más.
    ¡Juegazo recomendado!

    Good step in the right direction for halo. campaign is very fun multiplayer is a bit lacking in maps and weapons. But overall a solid release especially compared to games that have been being released with far less content and more bugs.

    A revolution for the franchise. Game runs super smooth and is an absolute blast to play. New open world concept works beautifully. Only gripe would be the lack of environmental variety.

    В странах СНГ Halo, далеко не самая популярная игра , но решил попробовать и и и и - это глоток свежего воздуха, что-то новое и довольно приятное. Техническая часть куда лучше чем у CoD и BF 20-42 FPS.

Life stuff happens but WOW. This game is simply amazing. I can’t speak for the multiplayer portion but the campaign reignited a love for Halo that I haven’t felt since the Bungie games. It’s so good that I was actually sad when the achievement popped up for beating the game! And I actually want to complete things on a big open world map for once! How did 343 pull something this stellar off? As usual let me start with some negatives first, there aren’t many. During cutscenes sometimes the framerate would TANK, there was one instance when the game was chugging so badly I thought I was playing Halo on the Switch! These issues can be ironed out in a patch but not so much the story based ones unless there’s story DLC. I played & replayed the ENTIRE numbered Halo games a few months ago & I still felt kind of lost in places during Infinite’s campaign. I’m not well versed in things outside of the core series like comics or movies but it’s annoying when games do that nowadays. But in the same breath I also like reading up on buckets of lore after I finish a game so I can’t be too annoyed by it I guess, I just wish there was more info in the game itself. The end of Halo 5, for as average of a game it was, set up some VERY interesting events that would happen in Halo Infinite but instead, we skip almost all of what it set up to the aftermath without many refreshers on what actually happened in between 5 & Infinite. I didn’t play Halo Wars 2 yet either but I know the general story of it, but I don’t think that would’ve helped much aside from more knowledge on the Banished. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVED uncovering the secrets of Infinite’s campaign & had a ton of fun with it beginning to end, I just wish the story didn’t leave me with more questions than answers & had a decisive finish, for this being the 3rd in 343’s trilogy and all. I loved pretty much everything else about Infinite though, the soundtrack is pretty damn good, it’s a Halo game after all. The world of Zeta Halo is beautiful & every weapon feels distinct & fun to use even if I only stuck to a couple of my faves by the end. My favorite thing by a MILE is the new grappling hook, why wasn’t this thing there from the very beginning of Halo?! It adds so much to the gameplay that I firmly believe any FPS should be required by law to have it implemented into their games, that’s how good it feels to use! I dare say it’s better than Doom Eternal’s! It’s so fun to use that I never used any of the other abilities that were given to me aside from once or twice. Climbing up a mountain and slingshotting yourself over it to smash Banished on the other side never got old. It doesn’t help that I just replayed Spider-Man on the PS5, so now Chief can go web to grappling hook with him lol. Overall, fantastic game. Exceeded my expectations despite some story hiccups that I hope are tied up in future DLC that I would gladly buy & play. It’s so good that I have the urge to 100% it, which is VERY rare nowadays for me. 343 has finally delivered!!… Expand

    PROS:
    I just played the Campaign in June of 2022. I always play on Heroic mode and I LOVED IT. The campaign forced me to learn and use all the suit upgrades as it progressed. This game was actually a tad harder than other Halo games in a good way. The bosses felt real and satisfying to beat.

My only two negative points are a) the environment can be repetitive and b) some dialogues from The Weapon end up becoming cringy at points.

    As for the multiplayer it's *the* most fun Halo MP i've ever played, it's addictive. There still need to be some additions with more playlists and modes and i know they'll come but the core gameplay is amazing and that's what matters the most to me. The thing that irks me right now is the aggressive monetization. I get that the game is f2p but people still pay $60 for the campaign and having to spend hundreds of dollars extra for some armor sets that existed in Reach and aren't even that special is a bad decision to me. I hope 343 will make more stuff to be earnable through gameplay.    … Expand

    I would have rated the game a 10 if the coop was released on day one and if the progression in the multi was good. Otherwise the multiplayer is the best I've ever played. The campain is a blast, my one complaint there is that the new "AI Cortana" is really annoying. I know that's on purpose to a point, but still. Otherwise the most fun I've had gaming in a long time.

    Le meilleur Halo de 343i c'est certain.
    Dans les points négatifs, je mettrais qu'ils auraient pu mettre des biomes diffférents, et aller beaucoup plus loin dans leurs idées (je pense notamment aux marines qu'on sauve au cours du jeu, ça aurait du avoir un impact sur la campagne en ajoutant une partie stratégie), varier beaucoup plus les missions annexes (on tombe vite dans le déjà vu).

    Jogabilidade: Está perfeita, é a melhor de toda a saga, tem algumas coisas como o arpel e os barris de plasma pelo cenário que mudam muito a gameplay.

    Combate: É também um ponto forte do jogo, ele rivaliza com o halo 2 pelo titulo de melhor combate da série em minha opinião, ta muito fluido e divertido, a variedade de inimigos ta muito boa, a maneira como eles agem em combate, os brutes estão muito legais e tem diferentes tipos que atacam de diferentes formas. Os jackals são os mais dificeis, o escudo deles é muito difícil de quebrar com as armas humanas, precisa de arma de plasma ou elétrica pra quebrar mais fácil.

    Chefes: Isso é um show a parte, casou muito com esse jogo ele ter chefes e as lutas são muito maneiras, cada uma é diferente e tem algumas que são muito difíceis mesmo, os banidos são ótimos antagonistas para o jogo.

    Mundo aberto: É definitivamente lindo e deslumbrante, mas está vazio no nas primeiras horas de jogo, depois o jogo disponibiliza muitas outras atividades que despertam mais o interesse de explorar o mapa.

    Personagens: Estão muito legais o piloto e a The weapon são muito divertidos, o chief tem mais personalidade e é até sarcástico e meio resmungão kkk e os personagens vilões também são bem intimidadores e o jogo faz você ficar com raiva e ter gosto em enfrentar eles.

    Historia: Gostei bastante dos rumos que a historia tomou, mas não falarei demais aqui pra evitar spoilers.

    Conclusão: Pelo que vi até agora esse halo ta no meu top 3 da franquia, ele tem muitas influencias legais, pega o contexto do halo 1, evolui o combate do halo 3, pega muito da ambientação e um pouco da verticalidade de Doom e o mundo aberto se inspira em far cry, mas ele conseguiu dosar tudo isso muito bem, quando você ta jogando a sensação é de halo, a influencia mais forte pra mim foi do halo 3.
    Eu diria que até o momento superou minhas expectativas, sendo realmente um jogo infinitamente melhor que o halo 5 e principalmente que o 4 que pisava na bola em tudo menos nos gráficos.    … Expand

    Best Halo campaign since Halo 2. The Halo really lends itself perfectly to the open world along with a great story and gameplay. Only reason I didn't give it a 10 is because I'd like to have seen Desert/Snowy/sea environments.

    The second best Halo game ever! Is it perfect no! But one of the greatest games I have played so far on new generation consoles. The game is fun, and now with the open world there’s much you can do, except when you’re on missions at interiors, other than that the game is amazing, fun and addicting! 9.5 in my personal honest opinion. Ignore the 0’s they are Play Station Fans.

    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]
