    Не большой фанат игр типа Far cry но данная вариация во вселенной Halo мне зашла. Захватывать базы, и сражаться с босами интересно. Мультиплеер просто космос. Есть претензии к сюжету т.к нравиться лор во вселенной HALO.

    A 343i fez um belo trabalho, jogabilidade incrível, o gancho traz muitas novas possibilidades. História bem decente. Mas ainda assim gostaria de ver mais biomas e animais dentro do jogo, visto o mundo aberto. Ainda assim um belo jogo.

    It's amazing, i can't wait for new history updates.
    The only things i don't like are:
    1-Lack of weapons, Classic weapons like the spartan láser now are gone, they have to add at least 10 weapons that are K.i.a.

    2-Multiplayer: They are alredy working on fixing the lack of gamemodes but they still have to fix the microtransactions

    A true return to form. Inspired heavily by the older games and does it's best to keep it fresh too. Very happy with the end result and a must play for any Halo fan!

    I would say that this one of the best halo game but all games have their flaws.
    Campaign is great but the Multiplayer needs some work. I'm looking at you armor coating >:(

    This feels as great as the original Halo did, respectfully done. The open world works really well, gunplay and vehicles are great. Coop would be nice, but MP raids would be even better! (The Division meets Halo?) Lack of multiplayer PvE and lack of different biomes is the only think stopping me giving this a 10.

    It's a really good game and I really like the campaign the only problems I have with the game is the customization and that there is no mission select in the campaign so I'm going to give this game a 9/10 if they fix the customization and add mission select it'll be a 10/10

    After completing the campaign and completing most of the open world activities i'm confident in saying this is one of if not the best Halo game released to date. Among all its new features it finally feels like it knew what it set out to do and achieved that goal without feeling like it set itself away from what it means to be Halo.

    Love the open world concept in halo. Been playing for 20 years and it's a nice refresh. Music is nostalgic and ganeolay is amazing in campaign and MP. Would have given a 10 but kissing key features like coop campaign etc but otherwise very polished after the 1 year delay.

    This is hands down the best Halo game I’ve eve played. It’s a bit on the difficult side but not to the point of utter frustration. I only really play the campaign on these games, and so far I’m loving the story. It also has not only the best music I’ve heard from a Halo game, but the best music for a game period. It sounds that good…especially through headphones.

    This game is a return to form for Halo. I very much enjoyed that the game focused on Master Chief versus doing the split story of Chief/Locke like in 5. The game is extremely polished and didn't really experience any bugs. The grapple hook added a fun new dimension. I knocked off a point for not having co-op at launch.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. La campaña es simplemente hermosa. La mejor de la saga. Una historia que te atrapa, llena de misterios, enigmas y giros de trama, además de que podremos encontrar información adicional e interesante a lo largo del mapa con los archivos de audio.
    Volviendo con la historia principal, tiene un diseño de niveles increíble y yo que la jugué en legendario, debo decir que si es un reto pasarla en esa dificultad.
    Lo único que casi no me gustó en la historia, es que las misiones finales se sienten algo apresuradas. No están mal hechas, todo lo contrario, están excelentes, pero creo que se pudo haber extendido un poco más. Fuera de eso, todo lo demás me pareció perfecto.
    El mundo abierto es una maravilla, y si bien, no es el mejor, es muy bueno teniendo coleccionables, enemigos y misiones secundarias entretenidas.
    También debo decir que los soundtracks son una belleza. Desde algunos temas clásicos que han sido remasterizados, hasta nuevos temas que son como una mezcla de la esencia de aquellos temas de juegos anteriores, pareciendo hasta híbridos como por ejemplo, de Halo 4 con Halo Reach.
    Simplemente una maravilla de campaña e historia.
    En cuanto a multijugador, es excelente. Cierto que aún tiene fallas como el sistema de progreso o el no poder escoger modos de juegos, pero de ahí en fuera, es entretenido, divertido y ya se nos confirmó cambios futuros, por lo tanto, estoy seguro que podría ser considerado de los mejores multijugadores de la saga.
    En cuanto a gráficos y rendimiento; el rendimiento está excelente, mi Xbox One Fat lo corre perfecto y aunque los gráficos no son los mejores debido a que necesitan rendimiento para las consolas Xbox One, aún así se llegan a ver muy bien. Especialmente en las instalaciones del anillo, donde ese estilo metálico es maravilloso de ver.

    En general, considero a Halo Infinite como un gran videojuego y de los mejores de la saga. De manera personal, ya es mi juego de Halo favorito.

    The game was incredible! Even made me tear up a few times, and the music was a 10/10 incredible soundtrack! Only negatives. Wish the game was rated M. Feel like that would help with the immersion. Second wish that they would use Blur cgi cutscenes from HW2 instead of the in-game engine. I think this would help project certain emotions a little better.

    Overall:
    Campaign 9/10
    MP 10/10
    Music 10/10

    343 has managed to recapture the Halo feeling and refocus Halo's gameplay by focusing less on abilities tied to the player and more pick ups and environmental choices. A simple, yet complex story which also feels like an apology to the community for the misdirection they have gone with the series. Halo finally sounds, feels and plays like Halo, once again.

    This is solely based on the campaign, but base on the quality it probably it the best halo game and story. Now its not going to win best narrative or be hailed as a art piece, it's still halo, but what 343 did is add enough character work to give the big moments in the story a lot of emotion, to the point where the end game can be pretty emotion for longtime fans.

Now its not going to win best narrative or be hailed as a art piece, it's still halo, but what 343 did is add enough character work to give the big moments in the story a lot of emotion, to the point where the end game can be pretty emotion for longtime fans. Steve Downes and Jen Taylor really elevated this story beyond its simple "find the girl" style story, to the point where Jen Taylor's performance should be first on the list of 2022 best performances. However, I don't think this story will work as well without playing Halo 1-3 and getting the relationship between Chief, Cortana, and the new AI Weapon. But if you play Halo for the campaign this is probably the best in terms of quality.

    Mechanically its about as tight as an arena shooter can get (I played on console so unsure how PC feels to play) I dipped a bit into multiplayer so if you like that you'll like PvE. I will say there is one boss fight nearing the end of the game that felt more frustrating then fun, but the enemy design and AI were pretty fun to play against.

    The biggest thing about the "game" aspect of it is the length feels artificially long. While I thought the side missions and the valor points earned form them was a fun addition (despite being a bit repetitive) the main missions are on the shorter end of a Halo game and the layout and goals feel different enough to make up for that, if you blitz through it, I think there will be some disappointment.

    Running through the last few things, the music still slaps, classics return, new renditions of old songs. This group really understood what made Marty O'Donnell's work become classic.

    Tech wise it felt good, I was playing on my day one Xbox one and it run better than I expect a nearly decade old console could run a 2021 game, occasion weird load or frame rate issue but nothing happened twice.    … Expand

The story is really good and I've been having a lot of fun with the multi-player. Just wish co op was released and the store was better and the battle pass was way better. Unsure if not having the choice to chose what mode you play in multi-player is simply because you're trying to get a good amount of data collected on all game modes or what but not having that ability also sucks. The game itself is great I love every thing about it the story was such a major step up from 4 and definitely 5. I even teared up a little bit.. but do to the fact that it's lacking key features is why I gave it a 9 out 10.… Expand

    Halo Infinite has an incredible story and gameplay. It’s a great game, awesome, but there are some flows.

    In campaign, you suddenly get marines in your bases. This should be a little more explained, you are told that UNSC forces have been hunted but then you have infinite marines out of nowhere. And there are still lots of questions of the blue team, Osiris and the spirit of fire. Then,    Halo Infinite has an incredible story and gameplay.

    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]
