    Vindo de uma empresa tão grande quanto a Microsoft esse jogo tem uma definição: medíocre. Não tem nada de especial, diferencial dos demais Halo's é o hook na jogabilidade, não tem nada de interessante. É somente mais um pew pew, Destiny 2 consegue ser muito melhor

    Devoid of content, lackluster campaign, and multiplayer plagued with issues. Very little actual content; a very small weapons sandbox, only around 7 vehicles, 10 maps, and what is arguably the worst customization ever seen in a Halo game, worse than Halo 5's.

    Disbanding lobbies, crazy pay services just too change color which was free in every other halo game before hand. Story was out right boring, dull. Honestly done with xbox, they rather focus on their ESG score then make a good game. I'm just going to sell my console's and buy a pc, tired of being ripped off just too play online when everyone on pc gets too play free with console users.

    This game gets way too high score on Xbox. Just compare to PC reviews on Metacritic. 6.9/10 vs 8.4/10.
    Not sure why but my guess is that Xbox players are probably younger and more casual players.
    Personally, I left a long review on SensCritique (in french) and I think this games is too shallow.
    Among other things, the story and the environments are way too limited.

    This is worst Halo. Open world game sucks. Why every game must be sandbox now? This is pathetic.

    I told you that this game was marred with horrible decision-making, and metacritic censored my review FOUR times.

    This is the game you deserve... I condemn you to play this game for the rest of your lives.

    The worst Halo live service ever...well done.

    Thank you for breaking one of my favorite games. I was really looking forward to the split screen mode. Now this will no longer come? That was the reason to buy this game in the first place! Thank you for lying to the fans. The brand Halo is definitely dead for me and your XBOX slowly too! Sony at least still develops good exclusive games!

    Après toute ces années à attendre ce nouveau Halo, c'est du foutage de gueule. Jeu daté de 10ans graphiquement, une histoire avec un méchant enfantin et indigne de Halo. Un jeu coupé en 1000 morceaux et le suivi du multi catastrophique.

    I thought this game would be more dynamic and better presented. During the gameplay I realize the landscapes are all the same all the time. The dungeons looks all the same. Very repetitive and I felt bored.

    Halo Infinite had the opportunity to cement itself as the dominate multiplayer fps as Halo 3 once did but unfortunately it feels like an unfinished product due to some key missing features and a few mindbogglingly bad design decisions.

    First the stuff that has been removed which was standard in previous games -No campaign co op -Cant replay missions in campaign without starting new
    Halo Infinite had the opportunity to cement itself as the dominate multiplayer fps as Halo 3 once did but unfortunately it feels like an unfinished product due to some key missing features and a few mindbogglingly bad design decisions.

    First the stuff that has been removed which was standard in previous games
    -No campaign co op
    -Cant replay missions in campaign without starting new game
    -No split screen multiplayer
    -No dual wielding weapons
    -No forge
    -No slayer or team slayer playlists
    -No swat or infection playlists
    -No griffball
    -Armor customization now costs money
    -No stat tracking
    -No input based matchmaking so you're forced to fight PC sweats
    -Battlepass. I could write pages on how stuff like this is cancer to the gaming industry but I think the prices for armor colors speak for themselves.
    -No spartan laser(seriously what the hell)

    The campaign could have been good if you didn't just go through either bland grey hallways or the same green forest environment the entire game. The story presentation in general was pretty bad, most of the important info is given through audio logs in typical boring open world fashion. Speaking of open world most of the campaign is like a bad far cry game where(you guessed it) you take over bases by killing the same enemies ad nauseum. I give one point for the grapple because its a fun mechanic.

    The multiplayer sucks in all kinds of ways the most obvious of which being the battle pass which is the worst thing to happen to halo but I digress. The Big team battle maps are awful because they don't have any open space to improvise with vehicles, everything must be driven on the predetermined paths which makes everything feel formulaic. Even worse is the game has random vehicle spawns so your team can get screwed by RNG that will sometimes give the losing team game winning vehicles like tanks, its honestly a joke.

    Overall Infinite is an obviously incomplete game that was sold way before it was ready in order to get the jump on battlefield and cod. To me this is the worst Halo game, not just because of the predatory monetization but because its so bland in everything it attempts without any of the polish of the previous halo games. I honestly cannot comprehend why Microsoft continues to let 343 run this series into the ground.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. para los que le interese mi opinión. Halo Infinite es unos de esos juegos que por mucho que le quieras cambiar la mecánica la historia y el lore es el mismo, es como ver la pelicula de los vengadores, sabemos que le va ocurrir algo malo a la tierra y que llamaran.
    al vengador mas fuerte de la tierra. Pues Halo es lo mismo, cuando quieren conquistar unos aliens la tierra o lo que queda de ella, recurren al jefe maestro sacándolo de la lata de conserva, le dan un arma y nuevas ordenes y a correr como loco por el campo.
    es como Rambo con armadura verde, solo que no se puede desmelenar con el casco. el argumento de la historia siempre es el mismo, tienes que eliminar el enemigo para servir y salvar el país, en este caso es el planeta porque un puto boina verde.
    Pros Es un halo
    Contra No es innovador
    Npcs tontos algo nunca visto en otras entregas Modo historia corto y no te deja retroceder para buscar intel o secundarios.

    story is pretty disappointing. Its like they started a new storyline in the middle of a storyline. This was an extremely underwhelming campaign, although I did like the weapon and echo 216. What I can say is that this feels like what halo 5 should have been, but its just too little too late. 5 at least felt like it was building up to something, then it all happens in between games and youstory is pretty disappointing.

Then they just start over and move onto a new enemy. I really think 343 just keeps jumping enemies because they cannot craft them well, so they jump around thinking that'll fix the issue. Just, so disappointing as someone who has been playing since the first halo game. This might be more for newcomers, which I get and welcome, but for long time fans, I don't see how you could be anything but disappointed in the story as it currently stands. Expand

    The game is boring with such lacking content. Btb is awful in comparison to halo 3. The story is bad since halo 5. Might be the best master chief but the campaign lacks epic moments most of the cool **** happens in audio logs. They desecrated one of the main character for no reason and no true explanation. I am sorry but 343 has to go. 3/3 strikes.

    When quite clearly when you look that interest data straight from google believe me its not great failure infinite a fitting title for the game.
    It's so incredibly sad how the original halo combat evolved 20 years ago with Bungie Software is more detailed than Failure Infinite with 343 industries
    PS3 Graphics Disappearing Pop in Grass Bad Lighting Ambient Occlusion And Bad Shadow Cascades Shadow Missing From Trees Bad Lighting Graphics In General Bad SSR Reflections
    Bad Physics Bad Water Graphics Halo 3 with Bungie looks more next gen than Failure Infinite with 343 10 hours campaign with cliff hanger bad ending boring multiplayer Stupid AI
    Guerilla Games Killzone shadowfall 8 years old game has light years ahead smarter AI Better Gameplay and Better Graphics
    Only 1 biome in a open World Halo game. The Game Freezes for 5 seconds 0 FPS because of series x split memory Sloppy engineering it cant hold 120fps and 343 are incompetent

    1 step forward 343 steps back. but you don't care because you're like oh my god Rogue it's free on a subscription service thats one of the reasons the game is flopping,
    Free doesn't necessarily mean worthwhile Duh But you don't demand better From Xbox & microsoft and this is why you recieve third rate trash products with no spirit no taste and a half broken unfinished mess with half of the content missing But You Don't care you never had and believe me you never will because your simp brains too busy going BEST HALO GAME 10/10 ahahahahaa

    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]
