    Had far too much fun with this game, sacrificing college for it. My dying education aside this game is honestly worth the time. Well done 343 for finally delivering.

    The poor indie publisher microsoft does not have the money to fully localize the game into Russian, it would be better to spend money on full localization instead of advertising in Moscow.

    If 343 even cared about a story line, they wouldn’t keep pushing out these half baked ideas that do nothing to further the story, but only bring back older characters just for some fan service. Sure, the multiplayer is fun. But they had no only years to work on this one, but an additional year after they put out that atrocity of a trailer until we bullied them to make something better.If 343 even cared about a story line, they wouldn’t keep pushing out these half baked ideas that do nothing to further the story, but only bring back older characters just for some fan service.

    The ugliest, shortest, most boring let down i've played in a long time. Campaign is extremely short for an open world game called "Infinite", no replayability.

The open world itself is hideous, the same copy pasted tree fills the landscape and the entire of the game is the same green biome (compare this open world map to Death Stranding or AC Valhalla, or FC6 and the difference is shocking) and this apparently had a 500 million budget. The multiplayer is a shameless MTX filled cash grab with skins for 2000 vbucks (back in my day you had to complete easter eggs in the campaign for Hayabusa...) and no levelling system, as a big multiplayer fan this is bizarre and feels like the game doesn't track or care how many hours i put in, unlike Overwatch or Fortnite etc, which track account levels and hours. The story is Chief (goodie) vs a mean brute (baddie), the map is ugly and uninspired, the singleplayer is short and boring, multiplayer repetitive and unrewarding. The main reason i even bothered to write this review is because i simply don't understand why its being so overrated. Gaming credibility truly is dead.… Expand

    5 years in the making for something, just ti be released on a next-generation platform, and all we got is a poor remastered game, some texture are great, but it seem that is just that textures only improvements, no able to replay missions... and it's Goss and goes, halo shouldn't had a "remaster" I would have chose to make a new hale from scratch for new gen platforms.

    This is not a 2021 game. Not even a 2018 game. The open world is small and empty. Everything is slow and come on... The hook is not an innovation. Stop being fooled by some minor improvements. Xbox serie X deserve so much better. I'm playing on pc game pass, but be honest what will be your grade if you paid it 69 dolars?

I was at the end of the first mission were you use the grapple to escape the burning ship and I guess I grappled and fell to a platform that you can’t escape from and unfortunately the devs didn’t take into account this and I auto saved on that platform and had to restart literally the entire game at that point. I was extremely upset that the devs didn’t iron out this gameplay issue in the **** tutorial level. WORST experience I’ve had in a video game in decades. I’ve never been more disappointed with a game. I just wasted 45 minutes having to replay the opening level for **** sake!… Expand

    I have played every halo with my now adult son. So finding out there was no campaign co-op was a big letdown. I tried to get into it but without co op it just isn’t that fun. Gaming has advanced since the first halo launched and this game seems stuck in the past. Too bad there wasn’t co-op.

    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.

    I find it really funny that I go through the review scores and all the 10/10 seem like they haven't played the game. The MP is broken. The SP can be beaten in one day and doesn't even look next gen. You get the same level of graphics on the Xbox one. What happened?

    We waited six years for this? The graphics are okay at best, the story is garbage. I cannot believe I’ve been subbing to gamepass for a year for trash like this and forza. The gameplay is typical halo, but the rest is garbage.

    Another infuriating thing from Halo Infinite is the over aggressive MTX. Someone should take away the Halo IP from 343i, because I feel more and more embarrassed to call myself a Halo fan.    … Expand

    It's been a long time since I played halo or any other shooter, I truly hoped this game could make me feel amazed with these kind of video games, but in fact, I experienced the total opposite, it felt quite boring and even repetitive during some missions. Honestly, it doesn't deserve an 86.

    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]
