    Despite all the 0 ratings coming from angry ps5 owners its a great game. I didnt care much about multiplayer. Am focused on campagin and its great fun.

    After playing it a bit more - best campagin in the halo universe

    Nunca había jugado un Halo y después de jugar el Infinite me he descargado Halo MCC porque me encantó, me estaba perdiendo de una verdadera joya. Muy entretenido, buena historia que ahora voy a entender mejor cuando juegue los anteriores.

    It's a solid '9' but upping to 10, to dilute some of the silly reviews. Judging the game purely on its own merits its a lot of fun in Campaign, but the multiplayer brings back the old Skool Quake3 feel that has been so sadly lacking in the years between. If you want a fun game you'll be hard pressed to find better.

    A true return to form. The next best campaign in the series since 2010 and phenomenal multiplayer. Can't wait to see how they expand it.

    This game is really good. You can ignore the people who say its not the halo experience they are used to.

I think the only thing those people are used, is a playstation controller and are upset that they cant play this magnificent shooter. Halo Infinite brings back the real halo experience with 'duels'. Games like CoD / BF etc. you have no chance to win if someone starts shooting from behind. This game has a lower TTK (time to kill) but that makes it more fun. And the campaign... is really good. Im sad to see that user reviews lose its meaning when there are couple of sad playstation fanboys reviewing it. Plus it comes free with gamepass (and the multiplayer is free no matter what). So I really dont see the problem. If you dont like it, be precise but this is just complaining after 5 minutes because people think they are good at COD it makes them automatically good in Halo and if they suck at it, its because the game is bad.… Expand

Saddens me to see how many trolls have gathered here just because theyre angry they cant have their fortnite skins without paying. The real problem is the playlists. Not some stupid skins and colors. We need playlists, not your pathetic decorations. Also, since when did collectibles and open worlds become and inherently bad thing lol? just because you saddos have sickened yourselves with them by shilling out to ubisoft every time they release a game doesnt mean the rest of us are that dull in the brain. Halo actually does the open world better than any other game, and it does it without actually being and open world lmao.

    People saying "wah, 9 hour campaign for 60 dollar" are intentionally choosing to leave out the part that this is the play time only if you rush through to missions and play on normal setting. They are doing that because they have an inherent hatred towards the game, and purposely choose to ignore that theres easily 20 hours or more here. which they are well aware of, but why mention that when you can poop on the game in another way. lol.

    This is easily, EASILY, the best halo game since halo 3. and i dont say that lightly, because i HATED halo 4, 5 and Reach with a passion. Ive been hard on halo because i love it. This game needs some fixes. Mainly multiplayer stuff. Like, how can we not have slayer as a playlist? Other than that, some optimisation problems in the campaign are annoying, considering i run this game on a RTX 3080 and I9 9900k @5.2, It should run a lot better.

    The gameplay here IS phenomenal. And anybody denying that is just straight up lying in order to make the game look bad, because it makes them feel happy and fulfilled. Its called being toxic. Go outside, catch some sun. The graphics are just outstanding. The sound design is INCREDIBLE. Gun play is better than anything released in the last 10 years. and thats another fact. People complaining about "biomes" are just pathetic. We get given the most interesting, well made open world in years, and all you muppets can think of is "muh biomes" lol.

    The game is designed so that you can more or less ignore the open world if it isnt your thing, and go straight to the missions which are varied in map design and location. So the crying really is just bored sony ponys looking for a way to try make people feel bad about something they like.

    Though this game isnt perfect, mainly due to missing content, it deserves far better than it is being given by you lot of miserable souls. In a short time, this game will be the best game on the market, and will further continue to make the PATHETIC releases that are Battlefield and COD look trash.

    long live the chief! halo is finally back, meet me on multiplayer. ill out BR you because its halo 3 style again baby.    … Expand

    The gunplay feels fantastic and the pace of the fights is timed to perfection. The open world felt really expansive and I got to create a lot of my own moments. The story was an unexpected standout. Caps things off perfectly while setting the stage for the future. Loved it It’s not perfect by any means but it’s certainly for me. Hats off to 343

    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]
